Creative young couples who want to recreate the atmosphere of another era and surprise guests at their wedding, choose the steampunk style. He appeared in the early 50’s of XIXstoletiya, when there was an active development of airplanes, airships and steam locomotives. This time has long been left behind, but the intertwining of mysticism, antiquity and mechanics inherent in it, still excite directors, writers and artists.
Where to look for inspiration for organizing a steampunk wedding? For this it is worth reading books by legendary writer Herbert Welsh, watch such interesting movies as «Sherlock Homes» by Guy Ritchie and «League of Extraordinary Gentlemen». The characters of street kids, the first feminists, and daring inventors will come to the rescue.
The perfect place to celebrate a steampunk wedding is an old English mansion. If financial possibilities allow, you can rent a suitable place directly in England. But in Russia it is not a problem to find an old country estate or villa with a beautiful garden. Another option is a hangar or an abandoned barn. Familiar chairs can be replaced by haystacks. The choice of location depends on the preferences and opportunities of the newlyweds. Professional decoration and a properly chosen palette also play a big role.
In this case, you can do without the background light shade. The palette is dominated by such colors as dark blue, asphalt, burgundy, all shades of brown, yellow and gold. That is, in the decor should be present natural colors that occur in nature. Successfully complement the color scheme of copper color, of which many additional ornaments and decor are made.
For the invitations, faux aged paper is the best choice. For inscriptions use vintage fonts, for example, handwritten or reminiscent of headlines in newspapers. You can decorate the invitations with prints of airships, clocks, gears, images of steam locomotives, airplanes and other devices discovered in the XIX century. Cards with names are fixed with aged springs, rust on which will be just right.
This style was born in the era of industrial progress, so it is worth using to decorate the banquet hall:
On the tables will be appropriate tablecloths made of expensive velvet, beautiful silverware, crystal glasses, iron vases with fresh and dried flowers. Metal cages with birds, copper candlesticks with white candles, dials that hang on the walls as garlands, metal flowers will also be suitable for decorating the room. Vintage things will also be appropriate, namely:
Arc lamps, electric and optical telegraphs, and generators are suitable for lighting the hall.
It will not be easy to choose the right clothes in the store. For the bride, a dress with a lot of bouffant skirts and a corset will be suitable. Instead of a veil, it is better to use a hat with a veil or a bandage of translucent fabric with large flowers. The length of the dress — from the middle of the knee to the floor. On the legs will be appropriate leather boots on a small heel. Beautifully look earrings and chain of natural pearls. Wedding bouquet of flowers of warm colors, complemented by sprigs of greenery.
The groom on this day should look stylish and elegant. For him, a light-colored shirt and a dark jacket, jacket or suspenders will be suitable. To emphasize the stylistics of the holiday, you can put on a cylinder with round glasses, cufflinks in the form of keys or gears. On the feet classic black shoes or leather high boots.
For bridesmaids, puffy, straight or fitted knee-length or calf-length dresses are suitable. Dresses can be made in one color or style. Preference should be given to brown, green, peach colors. Men can not bother and choose dark pants free cut, light shirt, jacket or suspenders.
