Art Deco touches

Hi all
Having an art deco inspired (not themed!!) wedding in July in a brand new but art deco style hotel. Just wondering if anyone could help with little touches to make this more of an obvious thread running through the venue decorations. Sent out invites so that's covered but need some help with table plan/numbers/placecards/decorations/extra flourishes to tie it all together.
Thank you

Feather and pearls and more feathers and pearls. Obvioulsy doesnt have to be real pearls, you could get a good selection from charity shops and drape them over anything.Debt free since July 2013! Woo hoo! The bank actually laughed when I said I have come in to cancel my overdraft.0

You could use art deco style picture frames like this one
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ART-DECO-ORIGINAL-GLASS-OAK-PHOTO-FRAME-GLASS-/250625711902 for table numbers. I'm sure you could pic up a few off ebay and from charity shops etc.
Vases filled with feathers and pearls (as hellokitty says) would make good centre pieces. If you're allowed candles make sure the feathers are well away from the flames! maybe wrap them on the outside of the vase with grosgrain ribbon.
I think if you choose a good Art Deco style font then you can keep the place cards etc as simple as you like, perhaps with an appropriate border that fits the theme. A small feather, single pearl bead or ribbon bow might bring them together with your vases.0
