6 Fresh Wedding Trends for 2018

weddings1. Boho Or Bust

While rustic wood and pretty floral accents were popular in 2017, the new year is all about bohemian whimsy. This artistic look gives a relaxed and natural feel that your guests will love. Jump on this trend by using rich purple and gold hues and crystal accents.

2. Dreaming of Neon

Once associated with late-night bars, neon signs are poised to be a popular look this wedding season. Whether you incorporate neon signs as your table numbers during the reception or use it as a fun way to display your favorite romantic quote by the cake table, this trend is sure to catch the eyes of your guests.

3. Blow It Up

Calligraphy balloons are becoming a popular prop for weddings. Couples can use them during their engagement photo shoot or as a fun photo-op for guests during the reception festivities. With a variety of sizes, colors, and styles available, the customization options for these balloons are endless.

4. Go Organic

When it comes to wedding backdrops, walls made of organic material like boxwood are on-trend this year. The look adds natural beauty while enhancing your other decorations, regardless of what color palette you choose. Set one of these up behind your bridal party table or your cake table for a classy look.

5. Ruffle Some Feathers

Ruffles create a trendy wedding look that is soft and classy, yet still fun. They’re not just for wedding dress skirts anymore; you can incorporate ruffles in your linens, altar drapery, and even on your cake. Carrying this accent throughout your wedding decor can become too busy if you’re not careful, so choose where you use ruffles carefully.

6. Crushing On Velvet

By now you’ve likely hopped on the velvet trend for women’s fashion. Why not consider adding a little to your wedding? Especially great for fall and winter weddings, velvet on shoes, table linens, bouquet accents, or invites adds a royal feel to your nuptials.
