Glam Weddings:

Everything You Need to Know

From Gatsby-inspired fête in palatial estates to the modern elegance of metallic décor, glam weddings are ideal for couples wanting the chicest party of all time. A major bonus? There are so many ways to make your glamorous wedding theme a reality, and much of that comes with your fashion and décor choices. 

What is a glam wedding?

A glam wedding is all about the opulence and fun of the outfits and decorations. Glamorous wedding dresses are typically long, with elegant trains, appliqués, and other accents that really bring the “wow” factor to your special day. Glam weddings might feature a variety of metallics, crystals, silk, and other materials or additions that translates to a sparkly, memorable event. 

In most cases, a glam wedding is hosted at night for an even more romantic and memorable event. You can host your glam wedding almost anywhere in the world, but estates (French chateau wedding, anyone?), ballrooms, and other more formal event spaces work best.

You also want to consider the era you’re trying to emulate with your glam wedding. Think about all the different types of glam wedding ideas and themes out there: There’s everything from a 1920s-inspired Old Hollywood vintage glam wedding dress to more modern minimalist décor for subtle glitz and sophistication. 

How much do glam weddings cost?

In 2020, the average cost of a wedding was estimated to be $20,300, but that number is on the rise. Due to inflation and the increased demand since the pandemic, wedding prices are higher than ever. Plus, these events typically come with a higher price tag because of the glam wedding theme itself. 

Glamorous Wedding Dresses

The most glamorous wedding dress, for example, will typically cost more than a simpler, more classic gown. Even more specifically, a rustic glam wedding dress might feature lace and long sleeves, and a vintage glam wedding dress will reflect those of Old Hollywood stars. There’s also the option to find your glamorous wedding dress at a vintage store or even have it custom-made for you.

Whichever type of glamorous wedding dress you choose, you can expect more expensive options to fit your theme best. 

Other Specifics for Glam Weddings 

On top of that, glam wedding invitations might require gold foil or another addition that increases your overall rate. Take all of this into consideration when deciding on your modern or vintage glam wedding ideas.

What décor will you need for glam weddings?

Once you’ve considered your dream glam wedding theme, you can start to imagine what décor you’ll need. As a color palette, your glamorous wedding theme might be suited with gold, silver, and any other options that just feel a little fancy. Crystal chandeliers, oversized candelabras, and other elaborate lighting installations also help bring the glam wedding theme to life.

As for food and drink, some of the best glam wedding ideas include tall champagne towers and gold-accented cakes. All of these things can be served on chairs with gold or silver accents and tablescapes featuring crystals, silk runners, and more. Meanwhile, vintage glam wedding ideas in particular might include more retro-style gold frames for table numbers, an old-fashioned car for your exit, and more.

How do you start to plan a glam wedding?

Once you’ve narrowed it down to the best glamorous wedding theme for you and your partner, it’s time to assemble your vendor team. Trusted professionals in your area can help you plan out the modern, vintage, or rustic glam wedding of your dreams. From glamorous wedding dresses to your perfect lighting setup, there are so many things these experts can “check off” along the way. To start building your team, look through our directory of real glam weddings and take notes of the vendors involved in the events you really love. Then, you’ll be one step closer to planning the most elevated and fun glam wedding possible.
