We are all counting down to Christmas but 2019 is just around the corner. With a new year comes new trends and ideas to make your big-day unique while still being up-to-date and stylish.
Bridal Dresses
Let’s begin with one of the most eye catching parts of the day. The wedding dress. With 2018 full of famous weddings it should come as no surprise that high profile weddings like Prince William and Meghan Markle would leave their impression well into 2019. Look for boat-neck gowns and off the shoulder bodices to replicate the royal wedding style.
Groomsmen Attire
Continuing with the theme of clothing is this one may be a surprise, 2019 is calling for more unique and individual groomsmen attire. Sharing the stage alongside the groom groomsmen often wear matching suits but this year just like some bridesmaids groomsmen will be stepping up their style game with mix and matched pieces with pops of colors and pattern.
Video Mapping
As technology becomes more accessible and affordable to the everyday person we are seeing technology find its way into weddings in the forms of lights, drones and livestreaming.
Video mapping will find its spot in 2019. Video mapping through the use of projection allows couples to completely transform any space using pictures and lights to project entirely new rooms all over the venue space.
Dahlias
Brides will be gathering dahlias in hand in 2019. Dahlias have always been a corner stone of floral arranging with their numerous colors, size and texture they fill up more space and provide a lot to an arrangement but 2019 will take them to the next level. If you want to stay on trend with your big day consider an all Dahlia bouquet or centerpieces that carry your bouquet from hand to table with matching textures and colors. For a little something extra consider adding feathers aside your Dahlia choices for a modern look that is also on trend for 2019.
Food
As the trend of making your entire day your day continues, the kinds of food couples are selecting for their wedding receptions are becoming more unique and personalized. Sit-down dinners will continue to be popular for more lavish and formal weddings, couples are getting more original with the food they serve than a classic buffet setting. Expect to see themed food choices and stations dispersed around the room similar to a cocktail hour. Instead of one buffet couples are opting for smaller bars like custom pizzas, tacos stands, and many more.
Invitations
Invitations are the first impression that your guests have of your wedding day and as such they should be treated with the same time and effort put into every other aspect of your big day. One of the top wedding trends for next year is distinctive wedding invitations. While 2018’s invites saw an influx of watercolor and nature designs 2019 will bring with it raised foil, gold, silver, rose gold and an array of metallic shades. Other trends for invites include marble and agate designs, geometric patterns and rich marble tones.
