This venue is located in New York, and has an outdoor setting. I chose this particular setting because I felt that it best matched Gatsby's and Daisy's dynamic. They both seem to enjoy gatherings, and Gatsby especially was known for hosting parties in his extravagant backyard.

Despite Gatsby's nature to be flashy, he would probably dress fairly classy to present himself at his very best, for his perfect wedding.

Neutral tones add a sense tranquility and positive vibes, something which Daisy and Gatsby would both want at their wedding.

Showing utmost appreciation for the guests at his wedding, Gatsby would splurge on their gifts, with each guest receiving their own Rolex. This feels like something Gatsby would do, because he is the type of person who isn't afraid to spend money on people he cares for.

Music

Taking place in the 1920s, the wedding would play some of the most famous songs from that era. They are also mostly all jazz or blues songs, as those were the popular genres of the time.

Rhapsody in Blue - George Gershwin

These food and drink choices are simple but good, fitting in with the rest of the weddings atmosphere. Small appetizers will be shared around the wedding, followed by steak for the main meal. The bar will have a couple of drinks, including 2 specials and 4 regular drinks.

Daisy, as I stand with you today, I am reminded that you were once merely a flickering green light from the end of your dock, shining across the water, so close yet so far. It felt like I had completely lost our relationship, suffering the consequences of my own stupid decisions. Yet, with both luck and the help of your dear cousin, I have got you back, picking up like we never left. So Today, in front of all our loved ones, I, Jay Gatsby, take you, Daisy Buchanan, to be my wife. I vow to love you, to cherish you, and to make every moment we share together something special.
