12 Wedding Trends That Will Get a Ton a Play Next Year Inspiration:

Floral crowns 😫 ((yawn)). We’re just about over them. But floral belts and chokers are another story. Kind of a boho bride’s dream, amirite?

Suspended Cakes // Cake Vignettes 

Elegant wedding cake with floral arrangement and golden accents Inspiration:

ICYMI, hanging cakes have been alllll over Instagram over the last few months - hanging from flowers, hanging upside down, lots of magic at play. But the flower magic here, using a vintage bar cart, lots of greenery and preciously-placed blooms, is next level. Sweet AF.

Opal Rings and Nuanced Rose Gold

Inspiration:

Opal engagement rings will be hugeeee this year and next, and it makes sense because unicorn/holographic/rainbow color trends with weddings aren’t going anywhere. La More Design’s new opals collection officially has our hearts, especially the options that include diamonds (🦄💎 SO GOOD). And rose gold isn’t on its way out either, instead the trend is getting tweaked. Jewelry designers like Rough Luxe are working with new hues of rose gold - peachier iterations that are altogether so much more romantic, sweet and feminine.

Circle Invitations

How long have we been dealing with square and rectangular invites? They’re wonderful, of course, but so basic. That’s why we can’t wait for circular invites to start making their rounds. They’re super creative and certainly out-of-the-box, and for a celebration that basically revolves around a circle of trust, they’re 👌.

Engagement Party Photo Invites

We’ve seen couples get amped about their engagement photo sessions to furnish so fly save-the-date cards, but now the trend is to get engagement photos even sooner, so they can star in your engagement party invites. Oh, and liners, we’re definitely all about the liners. And the DIY liner trend will be picking up steam, too, we’re placing bets RN…

New Takes on Getaway Cars 

Newlyweds on a ski lift with Just Married sign, celebrating Inspiration:

Get ready for some new looks to getaway cars… We’ve seen them in the form of tricked-out canoes for camp-style, lakeside weddings, and couples on ski lifts, heading up the mountain with their ride or die by their side, and we only expect this trend to keep soaring from one season to the next.

Adventure Weddings

Do you and your S.O. scare the s*** out of your friends and family on the reg with all of your risky behavior? Will your wedding be the next big adventure you two take? Well then, you’d probs be down for something like this… Parachuting into your wedding, with your bridal party, and your 100 guests? SO BEYOND. Your pics will be epic nevertheless.

Luggage Tag Favors 

White leather luggage tag with airplane decorations for travel Inspiration:

While we’re on the topic of flight… We expect custom luggage tag favors will be getting some air this year and next. Not only are they super cute for summer weddings, when vacay time is coming in hot, they can double as escort cards for a destination wedding.

Double Exposure Photography

We’ve already talked about this wedding photo trend in great detail, but expect it to turn up even more in 2019. Especially when it comes to the detail shots… HOW GORG IS THIS?!?!!

COLORED SHOES

Elegant pink bow heels and vintage vanity set details Inspiration:

Yes, of course this trend isn’t exactly new, but any time we see a pretty pair of colored heels we’re in ❤️. Especially when it's of the pink flamingo suede variety... Makes for a great addition to any 'getting ready' photo vignette, and if you're rocking a short dress, or something high-low, everyone will be peeping those pumps ALL DAY.
