The theme of the wedding is the 1920's.
The 1920's was often referred to as the Roaring Twenties. It was a a 'boisterous period characterized by rapidly changing lifestyles, financial excesses, and the fast pace of technological progress.' (source http://www.1920-30.com/)
Flappers and sheiks, evolving women's fashion in both clothing, hairstyles and jewelry, silent movies, popular music including jazz, politics, religion, and the Stock Market crash of 1929 that heralded the end of the boom-times, and the following depression years. (source http://www.1920-30.com/)
There was 'rapid progress made in transportation by automobiles, trains, ocean liners, airships and aeroplanes that opened up countries and the world, enabling ordinary people to travel interstate and world-wide as never before.' (source http://www.1920-30.com/)
