Fonts
The typography from the 70s were really distinct and eye-catching. This is a fabulous way to introduce your 70s wedding theme from the first item that your guests see; your Save The Dates and stationery. The list of font choices below cover everything from retro sans serif to balloon typography and a multi-line font that screams disco!
70s fonts we love: Summer of ’76, Groovy, Cooper, Psychedelic Bubble, Rosebay, Tangerine, Gentle, Retro Party, Stanley, Popstone, Corduroy, Flatface Sours, Long Summer and Folkloric.
Colours
70s colours were bold and bright (think orange and yellow) and inspired by the colours found in nature (green, red and brown). We love colour palettes inspired by our favourite vintage classics: the retro drive-in, a yellow beetle or van, and flowers like daisies or sunflowers.
Clothing and style
Here’s where 70s wedding themes get fun: choosing what to wear! We’re obsessed with the mix and match wedding party look because it’s a great opportunity to play with different colours, styles, fabrics and patterns. For the couple, why not opt for vintage wedding attire, and if you’re bold, say yes to colour!
Feature items
Embrace a shaggy rug, a set of disco balls for the party, vintage records or a mix of wood and wicker in your decor. Or create a comfy and retro vibe with your seating – don’t you just love a classic velvet couch?
