It’s nearly time to say goodbye to 2018 and hello to a NEW YEAR.
We are already knocking on the door of 2019 we’re super excited for a new year! Because with a new year comes new brides and grooms, beautiful weddings and exciting new trends that we can’t wait to share with you.
To give you an insight into what 2019 has in store for you beautiful, soon-to-be married people, we’ve pulled together 5 of our favourite wedding trends that wowed us in 2018.
So here we go!
Big, Bold, Colourful Bouquets
Sometimes, it’s true – bigger is better. This is definitely the case for 2018 where wedding bouquets and flower arrangements were colourful, dramatic and larger than life.
Traditional Jewellery
Pearls and tiaras made a comeback this year. Many brides showed up at the alter looking stunning in gorgeous wedding jewellery ranging from pearl-beaded capelets, pearl-embellished veils, lustrous crowns and tiaras, and statement pearl earrings, from ear cuffs to chandeliers.
Unique Food Experiences
We all love to eat. It’s a universal thing that pulls us together – and definitely something that pulls a wedding together……lol!
When your guests head home, have them talking about what a great experience they had with the food you provided. Yes – experience.
2018 weddings didn’t come with the old conventional 3 course meal at the table, we saw weddings mixing it up here and there and made it a full experiential extravaganza.
From Pizza, tacos, sushi – there were really no rules! Especially when it came to the dessert, the donut wall and chocolate fountain stood out.
Exquisite Backdrops
Backdrops? Yes – that’s it. The buzz for 2018 was all about the backdrop.
An entire backdrop of lights is totally magical! Have fun with it and don’t forget to # it for instagram!
The party after the party
While we all love the formality and romance that comes with the wedding ceremony, it’s no secret that we’re all hanging out for the reception bit. But once the food’s all gone and our heels are worn from all the dancing- we’re not quite ready to head home yet…
In 2018, a lot of brides and grooms kept the ceremony and reception a bit smaller than before – but then pulled out the big guns at the after party.
Think of comfy couches, late night finger foods, whiskey bar, barbecue and a good DJ………take us there now! This is also the perfect moment for an outfit change!
