Friar Tux Style: Casablanca White Dinner Jacket shown with Great Gatsby Bow Tie

Write-up by Jessie Ball of Every Night's a Ball:

"This theme is as glamorous as can be, utilizing pearls, feathers, rhinestones and sequins! The color scheme is a basic black, white, ivory and gold. Our table setting is brought together with a black lace and gold sequin table square, gold rimmed dishes, gold beaded chargers and Art Deco style silverware and wine goblets. The napkins have been folded to resemble tuxedo jackets and even have a paper bow tie on them. The favors were provided by Paachi Chocolates and carry on our theme with gold and black ribbon and a rhinestone and pearl embellishment. For the flowers, I went for vey tall centerpieces to give a sense of grandeur, without blocking the view of the person across the table and then set on an Art Deco style mirror in the center of the table. These were designed and created by Bardwell's Florist. This would definitely be a black tie affair, with our groom in a white tuxedo dinner jacket and Great Gatsby style black and white bow tie. The bride's dress and headpiece were provided by Mary Me Bridal and I designed the sash. Her hair was done by Alexa Brodsky, hairdresser at Krimson Hair Studio in Burbank and makeup by Alicia Wheeler. For this theme, we included a custom cake, designed by Dayle Zimmer of Baked by The Cake Addict. The cake has a very Art Deco feel to it utilizing both square and round tiers and a quote from Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby'."

On a very special note: the groom model, Brian, proposed to his girlfriend, the bride model, Krystel, at the shoot, swoon!
