Wedding season is upon us and with it, a stream of new ideas, vision and styles will be showcased!
Here are the Top 5 Wedding Trends experts expect to be incorporated into the next wave of celebrations of loved-up couples.
COLOUR! COLOUR! COLOUR!
It’s goodbye to whites, creams and pastels and hello to bright and bold!
Joy will be bursting from the love in the room, along with the styling elements such as strong colours in the flower arrangements, table linens and stationary. Vibrant purples, magenta and fiery reds will be making a comeback to showcase couples’ personalities and make a statement with the eye-catching colour palette.
PATTERNS
Quite possibly our favourite trend prediction, patterns are hitting the wedding scene and we cannot wait to see them!
Level up your styling by incorporating a pattern in multiple elements throughout your wedding. From your invitation to stationary at the reception or even your table linens, patterns are a great way to add depth, personality and a pop of difference.
The added bonus of a pattern is it is completely custom to the couple and their colour palette, so you are ensuring that the wedding is unique and memorable. Patterns can be floral, chic geometric designs or bold retro designs – the options are limitless!
ALTERNATIVE ATTIRE
Traditional wedding dresses, suits and bridal party attire are set for a shakeup with couples choosing to opt for modern and versatile options.
As with our first two trend predictions, colour and pattern are also sneaking their way in – say arrivederci to plain colour, satin bridesmaid dresses and we absolutely cannot wait to see the first bride who dares to rock a colourful, patterned veil for the big day!
Get set to see more brides in tailored suits, mini dresses and a second dress for the party end of the night.
SUSTAINABILITY IS KEY
With sustainability becoming increasingly important, brides and grooms are incorporating
eco-conscious elements into their wedding plans.
Electronic invitations are a great place to start along with locally grown florals, eco-friendly guest favours and zero waste catering.
MICRO WEDDINGS
While we adore largescale weddings and the grandeur that they bring, micro weddings (guest numbers typically no higher than 50) are on the rise, with couples opting to invest higher into the experience of the day than the number of attendees.
A common misconception is that a smaller guest list means a smaller impact, which couldn’t be more incorrect. One of our favourite 2023 wedding’s is that of Chen & Shirly for a total of 32 guests, held at the beautiful Sequoia Lodge.
Smaller group sizes allow for couples to spend more time with each visitor, providing a more unique and memorable experience.
