The Biggest Wedding Trends in 2019
Micro Weddings: Less is More
In 2019, we saw a shift towards intimate weddings. Couples were opting for smaller, more intimate ceremonies and receptions. These micro weddings allowed couples to spend more quality time with their guests and save on costs. Who needs a 300-person guest list when you can have a cozy 50?
Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Weddings
Sustainability became a big buzzword in 2019 weddings. Couples were more conscious of their environmental impact and chose eco-friendly options. This included locally sourced food, reusable decorations, and even digital wedding invitations. It's not just about the big day; it's about the planet too!
Colorful and Bold Themes
Say goodbye to the classic ivory and blush palettes. Bold colors took over in 2019 weddings. We're talking deep blues, rich purples, and even neon hues. Couples weren't afraid to make a statement and let their personalities shine through their wedding decor.
Wedding Venues: Where Couples Said 'I Do'
Non-Traditional Spaces
Churches and banquet halls took a backseat in 2019. Couples were looking for unique and non-traditional venues. This included industrial warehouses, art galleries, and even backyards. The focus was on creating a space that reflected their personal style.
Destination Weddings
Destination weddings were bigger than ever in 2019. Couples were jetting off to exotic locations for their big day. From beach weddings in Bali to castle weddings in Scotland, these destination weddings were nothing short of breathtaking.
Wedding Attire: What Couples Wore in 2019
Suiting Up: The Rise of the Tuxedo
Tuxedos made a comeback in 2019. Groom's suits were no longer just about the classic black tux. We saw a variety of colors, patterns, and even velvet fabrics. It was all about standing out and making a fashion statement.
Bridal Gowns: The Return of the Big Dress
After years of minimalism, big, beautiful dresses made a comeback. We're talking full skirts, long trains, and plenty of sparkle. Brides weren't afraid to go all out and make a grand entrance.
Wedding Food and Drinks: What Couples Served
Late-Night Snacks: Because Carbs are Life
Late-night snacks were a big hit in 2019. After hours of dancing, guests were treated to a variety of late-night munchies. From pizza to sliders, these snacks were a hit with guests and kept the party going.
Signature Cocktails: Mixing it Up
Signature cocktails were a must-have at 2019 weddings. Couples were serving up unique, delicious drinks that reflected their personalities. From spicy margaritas to classic Old Fashioneds, these cocktails were a personal touch that guests loved.
Wedding Trends to Watch in 2020
As we bid farewell to 2019, we're looking ahead to what's next in the world of weddings. Here are a few trends we think you'll see more of in 2020:
- Minimalist Weddings: While micro weddings were big in 2019, we think we'll see even more minimalist weddings in 2020. Couples are opting for simple, elegant affairs with a focus on quality over quantity. - Personalized Experiences: Couples are looking for ways to make their wedding unique and personal. This includes personalized favors, custom cocktails, and even unique ceremony scripts. - Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Weddings: This trend isn't going anywhere. We expect to see even more couples prioritizing sustainability and eco-friendliness in their weddings.
