Film themed ideas

20 June, 2013 at 15:33 Posted on Planning 0 5

So, we are trying to have a movie-theme running through the wedding without it being too Hollywood star-tacky!

So far we have come up with the save the dates (which we have just sent out - squuuuuuueeeeeeeee!)

Favours will double up as place names (two birds/one stone and all that!)

Table plan -

Cake -without the feathers - courtesy of my mum

And the order of the days we are going to have a different movie star on each one (numbered) then have a quiz later on on who the star was and what the movie was?!

Save the dates/invites/order of the days and table plan I have done/will do all myself in photoshop to save a bit of cash!

What do you think? Not too OTT is it?!

    Definitely not OTT! I love it! Especially the Save the Dates and place names.

    Are you doing anything else movie themed at all? :-)

    I think there's a retro cinema you can get married, but I guess you'll already have your venue! I would say what about red carpet for the entrance? And I think if you're not having a videographer you could get one and do some sort of stylised wedding video, not sure if those exist but I feel it should do, like a black and white silent film with the text screen for the vows haha! I don't think it's OTT,

    I think that's a great idea, you could definitely put some old black and white movies in the conservatory, or even better try and make your own black and white movie?!

    I'm doing 1920s themed for my birthday this year, and my plan is to film a silent movie throughout summer of myself, friends, family etc. then have it play at the party (hopefully on a projector if I can get one!)

    You could always do something like that if you have the time. Just rent an old style film camera and do your own short film. I'm planning to make mine quite documentary and hopefully I'll get a shot of everyone who I plan to invite to the party so it's a nice little surprise for everyone. Or, as you said, maybe just have old black and white movies in the background if you don't have the time to film your own Smiley smile
