About The Gatsby
What is The Gatsby?
The Gatsby is an independent editorial guide to Art Deco style and 1920s occasion planning. It gathers practical, well-researched articles on design, fashion, entertaining, and events inspired by the era. The content is informational and aims to help readers plan beautiful celebrations and bring period style into their lives.
What This Guide Is
The Gatsby is a curated editorial resource devoted to the look and feel of the 1920s and the Art Deco movement. It covers interior style, architecture, fashion, vintage glamour, weddings, cocktails, music, table settings, and the practical side of planning themed events. The aim is to be genuinely useful: clear, accurate articles that help readers understand the era and apply its ideas to real projects and celebrations.
Everything here is written as general editorial content, intended to inform and inspire rather than to replace professional services. We focus on timeless principles, design language, and planning approaches that hold up regardless of trends or specific vendors. Readers can use the guide to learn the fundamentals, gather ideas, and feel confident making their own decisions about style and entertaining.
Who It Is For
This guide is written for anyone drawn to the glamour and design of the Jazz Age. That includes couples planning an Art Deco wedding, hosts organizing a themed party or speakeasy night, professionals running a corporate gala, and design enthusiasts who simply love the period and want to bring some of it into their homes. No special background is assumed; the articles are written to be approachable for newcomers and still useful to those with more experience.
Because the audience is broad, the content stays practical and adaptable. We avoid prescribing a single right way to do things and instead explain the underlying ideas so readers can suit their own taste, budget, and circumstances. Whether you are planning a grand celebration or a small gathering at home, the goal is to give you a solid foundation and the confidence to make it your own.
Our Editorial Stance
The Gatsby is informational and editorial in nature. It is not a substitute for professional event planning, interior design, catering, or any other specialized advice. We share general guidance and creative ideas, and we encourage readers to consult qualified professionals and verify specific details for their own situations, especially where budgets, contracts, safety, or logistics are involved.
We also believe in transparency about how the site works commercially. Pages may include affiliate product links and forms that connect readers with relevant vendors or planning services. We do not endorse specific products, brands, or vendors without disclosure, and we will not quote prices or make claims about third parties without making any commercial relationship clear. Our editorial recommendations are kept separate from these commercial links and forms.
