From traditional classics to beloved vintage, to new, minimalistic, and modern – if you’re looking for the top wedding trends of 2019, find them all right here.
A Regal Affair
Thanks to the likes of Meghan Markle and the Duchess of Cambridge, the trendy Royal Family continues to be a staple fashion icon, making the regal wedding vibe bigger than ever this year. This pageantry style is all about blinged-out dresses, long veils, billowy sleeves, tiaras, mossy green and brass to create a swanky setting that’s truly fit for a queen.
Breweries
Though wineries, distilleries, and barns are still all the rage, breweries are stepping up as the new favourite casual venue setting for weddings. Intimate, romantic, with a perfect blend of modern and vintage, craft breweries offer a more relaxed, out-of-the-box setting.
Glam Bars and Amenity Baskets
Heard of glam bars? These offer guests some mints, flip flops, sprays, and more to freshen up during the course of the evening. But this year, we’re seeing even more pimped out amenities including hair and makeup stations with pros on hand to help keep guests looking fab even until the wee hours.
Rich, Moody Palette
When it comes to the colours, midnight blue, emerald green, and lush burgundies are steadily emerging on top. Incorporating modern notes with this warm, rich, and inviting palette is ideal for any time of the year, but it especially shines in a wintry setting.
Comfort Foods Dressed to Impress
Food is always a vital part of planning your big day. And if you’re a fan of comfort food, you’re in luck! As far as edible trends go, we’re seeing a big mash-up lately of old school classics that are dressed to impress. Think lobster mac and cheese, beer floats in champagne glasses, swanky sliders, and donuts. It’s the best of both worlds!
Custom Suits
Forget about the same old boring tux. Bespoke suits are giving the groom a new look that’s more personalized for the ultimate keepsake. We’re talking about custom embroidery, funky patterned lining, and more. After all, it’s his special day too, so why not go all out?
