Wedding inspiration can come from anywhere but the best ideas come from your all-time favourite movies — the ones that you will gladly binge-watch for the rest of your life.
For movie addicts, wedding planning inspired by Hollywood combines the best of both worlds. From The Great Gatsby’s grandeur to Twilight’s exclusivity — here’s how to bring some Hollywood classics to life — in the chicest way possible.
1. Twilight
Getting a nod of approval from the Cullen family is tough but you can sure give it a try with a vampiresque wedding theme with lots of blacks and reds in your décor.
A great way to incorporate Edward-Bella’s romance is to use their dialogues in the form of calligraphy art that can be placed on guest tables and the entrance.
A few key elements to remember when planning a Twilight themed wedding are white blossoms, an outdoor venue (preferably with a big tree in the background) and of course, apples!

2. The Great Gatsby
If you love a touch of old Hollywood glam then a Great Gatsby inspired wedding is what you should go for. Anything to do with Mr Gatsby comes at a hefty price so opt for this theme if you have the heart to spend like him.
Go for loads of glitz and glam — shiny silverware, grand chandeliers, sequined tablecloths and a free flow of food and music.

3. Alice In The Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but if you are looking for something a little whimsical and a little dramatic then it may just be the perfect theme for you.
Go for a day filled with crazy centrepieces and a fairy-like tea party. Think of relaxed dresses teamed with theatrical make-up for the wedding party or enchanting accessories that will wow all your guests, such as quirky clocks and teapots.

4. Hunger Games
If you look past the twisted concept of death, games and betrayal — Hunger Games represents an unconventional culture filled with rustic elements.
When it comes to adaptation, your options are endless: Invitations like lottery tickets, seating arrangements in 13 districts, intimate outdoor settings, a palette of capitol colours and of course, Katniss’ signature braid.

5. Breakfast At Tiffany's
Think classy, vintage and dripping diamonds. Think black and white monochromatic patterns to give a classic 50s retro vibe. The groom in a black tuxedo and the bride in a short white tulle dress — Audrey would be so proud!
But if monochromatic isn’t your style then try incorporating the divine and timelessly elegant Tiffany powder blue, for a fresh look – perfect for a spring or summer wedding.
