Winter weddings have done it again! From cozy décor, hearty meals, and breathtaking backdrops to giving out cozy blankets as party favors and unique dessert table ideas, we love everything that couples are doing to transform their winter wedding into a snowy wonderland. Apart from the blustery weather leaving a bright rosy glow to the newlyweds’ cheeks, wintertime weddings can be utterly magical and romantic, giving a warm sense of togetherness among all the visiting guests. It is this time of the year that provides snowy wedding photo ops and furnishes an enchanting atmosphere that comes together to make a wedding unforgettable. If the roaring log fires,  long-sleeve wedding dresses, holiday wedding details, and the luxe velvety fabrics aren’t and not to scream aesthetically cozy winter wedding details, we also have certain plans and come up with cozy details to keep wedding guests warm.

 

The unplanned snowfall and the festive wedding breakfasts make winter weddings the coziest affairs ever! There are so many winter wedding destinations in the USA that can be perfect for incorporating all your celestial wedding ideas that can look straight from a storybook set amidst winter woods. You can start off your winter wedding planning by choosing one of the best winter wedding locations in the US or even choose your local public park for hosting a winter garden party and transform it into a magical winter-themed fête with your own Pinterest worthy wedding details. In case the weather outside turns downright frightful, there are many creative ways to keep your wedding guests warm during the wedding celebrations. If you are wondering how to keep warm at an outdoor wedding, one of the best ways is to give out luxe favors to your loved ones as thank you gifts that can keep them warm and remember your wedding day fondly for years to come.

 

Here are our favorite winter wedding favors to appreciate wedding guests:

 

Cozy and comfortable blankets 

If you’re having an outdoor ceremony, offer your guests cozy blanket wedding favors so they can stay warm and comfortable during your vows. Offer throw blankets for your guest to use during the wedding celebration in outdoor spaces. If you’re hosting your wedding in wide-open wedding spaces like cideries, breweries, and distilleries during the cold season, the chances are it will be freezing cold outside during your ceremony. So if you offer cozy and comfortable throw blankets to your wedding guests, they will love to curl up under the soft and fluffy fabrics and watch you exchange your wedding vows and take these fluffy goodies home as wedding favors.

 

Knitted or woven gifts

Handwoven gifts will add softness and textures to your overall winter wedding décor aesthetics. Wedding favors like wraps and warm shawls are great to keep your friends and family toasty warm on your wedding day. Gifting wraps or shawls to your guests during winter weddings as keepsakes can be meant to keep warm in the cold weather and turn it into a cozy favor. You can also take it a step ahead and give them personalized wedding favors that will remind them of your special day.

 

Christmas themed favors 

In the case of a destination winter wedding, there are many winter wedding locations around the world to take your pick. A strong nod to the holiday season and festive cheer, Christmas-themed wedding favors add to the wintry spirits of your winter wedding. You can be the Santa at your wedding and hand out small handmade bags and rubber-stamp with “naughty” or “nice” to guests and fill up the former ones with coal-shaped sweet edibles and the latter with peppermint sticks and peppermint-chocolate bark. These holiday-themed wedding favors can also range from chocolate-covered pretzel sticks and warm handheld warm apple pie favors to bell-themed favors for combining Christmas and wedding bells.

 

Comfortable slippers 

Is there any other warm feeling than slipping into a pair of warm and fluffy slippers on a cold winter day? One of our favorite warm winter wedding ideas when it comes to choosing wedding favors is to hand out soft and comfortable slippers to your guests at the end of a long day, especially after winter wonderland weddings. Gifting cozy and comfortable slippers can be a great idea for thanking your guest and can also be a thoughtful winter wedding favor.

 

Give hand warmers and socks 

Your guests might don a jacket or shawl but you never know when someone misplaces their gloves. Just like comfortable and fuzzy slippers, hand warmers and socks can be very thoughtful wedding favors for winter celebrations. Keeping in mind the cold winter nights, your friends and family can put them on during the celebration if they get cold and also take them home for future use. Gifting hand warmers and socks as part of your unique winter wedding ideas is a great way to spread warmth during the chilly winter season. Hand warmers and socks will come in handy all throughout winter. Wonderful hand warmers will definitely make sure that their hands are warm the entire time. This useful winter wedding favor is something your guests will be grateful for and use in the coming days of the winter season. You can always put your creative cap on and wrap some premium quality warmers in festive fabric and attach a cute, personalized note to turn them into beautiful details that can transform your wedding.

 

Candle wedding favors 

Candles and winter weddings go hand in hand. Apart from being a significant part of winter wedding decoration ideas, candles are a staple of the chilly season. For all the lovers of cozy and warm wedding details, hand out candles as modern wedding favors for your winter celebrations. Adorn pine cone scented soy candles with beautifully crafted holiday tags and personalized messages or pair spicy and warm scented candles with personalized matchbooks for a little extra flair so that your guests go home feeling cozy and loved. You can also paint the candles and celebrate your choice of winter wedding colors or add richly brewed coffee fragrance as your way to host a Parisian-themed wedding that looks and smells straight out of a French storybook.

 

Chocolate baskets 

Edible wedding favors can be really great for winter wonderland wedding reception ideas. You can never go wrong with chocolate baskets! Apart from being great for your winter wedding decorations, arranging assorted chocolate baskets by setting up a gorgeous chocolate station can be a glamorous wedding idea and make for a yummy gift treat. Just like winter brings a festive share, chocolate baskets can be a trip down the nostalgic lane as everyone loves to indulge in cocoa and mocha. They are absolutely lovely wintery flavors and can be gifted as wedding favors to your guests.

 

Hot chocolate spoons 

The way to the heart is through the stomach. Or at least that’s what they say! Another edible wedding thank you gift idea that can look great on your winter wedding table decorations are hot chocolate spoons. Your guests will love a warm mug of hot chocolate when they first arrive at your venue or during the post-ceremony reception. You can add dark rum and honey if you want to serve an alcoholic version. It will not only be a great winter wedding favor idea, but the smell of hot cocoa can scentscape your wedding with its dark and rich smell!

 

Firestarters

Apart from being elegant wedding favors, candles shaped like pine cones and adorable pinecone firestarter wedding favors can feel as if you are giving your guests a cozy night by the roaring fireplace. For an additional feel-good factor choose the best one out of wedding venues with fireplaces! You can wrap up the ornaments with chevron paper, twine, and a piece of pine for this wedding. Gather some pine cones and wax, and create your own DIY wedding favor by packing these ensembles with personalized tags and satin ribbons. Your guests can light the wicks and relax by the warm and cozy fire on a chilly night of winter and remember your wedding day fondly days or even years later.

 

Mini boozy treats 

Winter weddings can be the perfect excuse to have brandy, rum, and whisky on your cocktail menu without getting smirked! Also, a steaming glass of spiced mulled wine is the perfect way to keep your wedding guests warm at a winter wedding. And this way mini alcohol treats serve as a great winter wedding favor option. Since alcohol can warm your guests and let them slip into ease, handing out mini boozy treats can make sure that they are comfortable and warm even after they leave the party with warm portable drink options. You can go overboard and create an over-the-top wedding idea by incorporating custom packaging and adding your own personal touch to the wedding thank you gifts.

 

Seasonal lip balms 

Your guests are going to love lip balms and they’d be sure to take one for the entire day! Winters can dry lips and leave them chapped which can ruin a long prepared wedding look. Giving out lip balms on winter weddings can keep your guests’ lips hydrated and plump. You can try out different flavors to choose from and pick out your favorite winter flavors like peppermint or chocolate, or even present an assortment of options for your guests to pick at your wedding.

 

Tea or coffee blends 

At the end of a late winter wedding, your friends and family will love thoughtfully prepared packages of tea and coffee blends, especially after a night full of wild partying! Since the world is divided between coffee and tea lovers and winters are for both you can make the tea and coffee drinking experience a little better by giving out small customized tea and coffee blends as winter wedding favors. Coffee and tea in goodie bags are simple winter wedding favors that your guests are going to appreciate the morning after your late-night reception as there is nothing like a soothing cup of warm beverage on a cold day!

 

Personalized gifts for your wedding party

 

Personalized wedding favors go a long way to say that you care, especially to your wedding party who has been holding down the fort for you two since day one! Personalized winter wedding favors can express the gratitude and love you have for them. For instance, gifting personalized alcohol flasks to your groomsmen with their initials on them and cute personalized flasks adorned with the names of your bridesmaids can be the perfect pampering gifts for your wedding parties on both sides. Similarly, you can also gift coffee mugs with personalized details like name tags or engraved initials as a welcoming touch at your wedding and let each guest grab a mug of coffee and take home a special wedding favor mug for many years of coffee enjoyment. A wind stopper is another super useful winter wedding favor that can be personalized and can surprise your wedding party, especially in a typical winter style like a snowflake or antler design.

 

Winter wedding favors are the perfect way to express your gratitude and appreciation for everyone visiting your big day and make it even more special with their warm presence. These thoughtful wedding gifts can be the perfect addition to all kinds of winter wonderland wedding venues. Moreover, to keep your guests warm and comfortable during your cold-weather celebration, stock up your wedding venue with blankets, wraps, mittens, or scarves that guests can use during the party and take home at the end of the night. Make sure to warm up the indoor spaces of your wedding venue and limit outdoor celebration time. This however means that you can always get married in a snowy backdrop, but move the celebration indoors for the rest of the evening once the ceremony is over.

 

Serve piping hot drinks and beverages like mulled wine, hot chocolate, or warm apple cider, as part of your outdoor winter wedding ideas to combat the freezing temperatures. Also, there are many winter wedding venues that come with roaring indoor fireplaces! These winter wedding venues can be perfect to create a cozy lodge atmosphere with lighting fire flames during your winter wedding reception.

Highlight Film Vs Insta Film: Made Easier by byDesign Films

The wedding trends all over the world have been taken over by social media. Weddings are not just about the ‘whats’ but also about the ‘hows’ nowadays. Wedding photography is on the verge of becoming passe as videography is gradually taking over the wedding circuit and how!

Wedding videos are of various types depending on their timing and relevance. As social media has deepened its claws over literally everything, it is inevitable for weddings to be spared. Boomerangs are a rage ever since they were introduced to the world. People do not shy away from capturing every little detail of their routine be it sharing the coffee you are sipping with your bae or enjoying a luxurious vacation at the Bahamas!

How can weddings not take any advantage of the social media revolution? From ‘save-the-date’ being announced on Insta story to engagement videos being put up as Highlights, it’s just the beginning. Wedding videography via aerial coverage is the latest trend to hit the wedding circuit. Well, filming weddings have been a thing for decades, however, the ever-evolving technology has taken it a notch higher.

Various new forms of videos are gaining strong popularity these days. The latest to join the bandwagon is the Highlight films and Insta films. Both are videos of a specific duration aimed at providing a gist of a wedding. They are videos that carry snippets from a wedding in case you haven’t noticed or heard about these, we’ll enlighten you. There are a couple of differences between a Highlight film and an Insta film. Let’s take a look at them.

Timing

Timing is one of the biggest differences between a Highlight film and an Insta film. While Insta films are restricted to 60 seconds or less, Highlight films can last up to 3 minutes. The crispness and shortness of Insta films are enough to create a buzz about the wedding. However, Highlight films carry more details and therefore, are meant to be for a longer duration.

Information

Given the nature and purpose of Insta films, they are required to carry minimal but gripping and most important information. Insta films include scenes that involve the family members of the bride and groom only. Other important people such as those behind bringing the couple together get space in an Insta film. On the other hand, Highlight films include a more elaborate glimpse of the wedding. They include scenes related to the venue, family, and relatives of the bride and groom and the story of their wedding.

Range of Popularity

Instagram scores all the way! Insta films have more reach than Highlight films as they can be shared easily and have a better chance to reach a widespread viewership. They can be easily be posted and viewed on Instagram, which is currently the most popular and widely used social media tool. Highlight films, on the other hand, can be shared via Vimeo and Youtube.

The word popular does not do justice to social media and its tools. And it is even better to know that a wedding can make perfect use of social media nowadays. You can increase the reach of your wedding by a strong margin by utilizing tools such as Insta films and Highlight films. Post it to your profile, share it with your friends and relatives or just cherish it for your lifetime, wedding videography is taking the wedding industry by a storm!

20 Amazing Grand Wedding Exit Ideas

Wedding exits are not the end of a celebration, instead, they are an entry into a new beginning. The beginning of a new life, hopes, more celebrations, and a lifetime of togetherness. Grand wedding exits mark the epic end of your singlehood and give a rocking start to your married life.

How about adding a unique spark to your exit? One that will be remembered for generations to come? That will be cherished by both of you for your entire life. There are various ways in which you can have the most swoon-worthy exit at your wedding. We have compiled a list of 20 unique grand exit ideas, so, read on and take your pick.

Sparkle On

This is one of the most popular ways to make an exit at a wedding. Apart from adding heaps of fun to the moment, it forms a great photo op for spectacular wedding photography. For the ‘grandest-of-grand’ exit, you could go for extra long sparklers as well.

Glow Sticks

If you are worried about your guests setting themselves on fire, then glow sticks are your next best bet. They not only add color to your exit but also make for gorgeous props for your exit photography.

Confetti

Every girl’s dream – to be showered with confetti. Well, almost everyone’s. Imagine the happiness it would add to an already existing happy moment of your wedding exit! The confetti shower makes you feel like a princess in every way.

Colored Smoke Bombs

Add a gorgeous dash of color to the wedding photography of your exit with the colorful smoke bombs. It has been proclaimed as the hottest wedding photo trend by the Huffington Post.

Bubbles

Since your fairytale deserves an equally whimsical ending, bubbles can be considered a perfect choice. Bubbles are so much fun for everyone, adults and kids alike. Also, the dreaminess they add to the photographs is the next level.

Flowers

Feel every bit of a king and queen with the shower of petals on you both as you make your exit. Our favorites are the rose petals, as they add glamor, whimsy, and fragrance to your exit.

Feathers

As elegant as it sounds, feathers look amazing swaying in the air. They add heaps of beauty to the wedding photos and look equally stylish as a wedding exit prop. You could choose between huge long feathers to be given to each guest individually or small little feathers to be tossed up in the air.

Sequins or Glitter

Glam up your exit with sequin or glitter throwing and see the magic it does to your wedding photography. Considering glitter is more difficult to clean, sequins are the best option to add not just a touch but lots of glamor to your exit.

Candlelight Romance

Nothing spells romance any better than candles. Hand your guests lit candles to show a dreamy way to your life ahead and make the most romantic exit. A candle exit is the ultimate romantic high that a wedding reception can get.

Balloons in the Air

Make your daytime exit merry and full of joy with the release of balloons in the air. It’s like the happiest ending to the ceremony and merriest beginning to what lies ahead. We love the fun element brought in by colorful balloons.

Utopian Laterns

Feel the utopia as sky lanterns go up in the air while you and your spouse make an exit. Sky lanterns are a treat to the eyes as they travel miles away in the air, as far as all the eyes can see. A bonus, it is a great option if you have plenty of kids at a wedding as they are left awestruck and thrilled!

Let the Bells Echo

Cowbells are another unique option to make an exit with. You can hand your guests cowbells and make a musical exit as they ring the little bells. The bells can also be personalized and gifted as a keepsake, always reminding your guests of your musical exit.

Butterfly Release

With all the anxiety before your wedding, after you both get married, the butterflies in your tummy are needed to let go of! How about literally releasing actual butterflies in the air? Witness that fairytale feeling come alive as you release umpteen butterflies in the air. Feel the fragility, magic, and dreaminess, all at once.

Bring On the Snow

Without caring much about whether, tossing snow in the air is a beautiful thing, whenever done. We mean artificial snow, of course. It’s also so much fun (think photos!). Snow tossing is one of the most unique ideas to have a wedding exit.

Tossing Leaves

Perfect for a fall wedding, your guests tossing leaves as you both make an exit is sheer beauty. The leaves add a wonderful story-telling effect to your wedding photography.

Adventurous Exit

If you want to have a rare kind of exit, there are so many ways to do so. Think sailboat, rowboat, paddleboat, surfboat, sled, or a snowboard. Many brides and grooms opt for these options also especially if it has some significance to their love story.

Fairytale Carriage

How about being a princess and being carried away from your singlehood by your prince charming? Get the absolute princess feeling in a carriage while making your wedding exit with your spouse.

Fireworks

Sureshot to have that ‘Whoa!’ effect on everybody, fireworks are the king of a grand glamorous exit. Imagine your wedding photography featuring you both driving away as fireworks light up the sky all around. Impressive? Exactly what we mean!

Ski Lift

In case you are getting married in the mountains, head up for a ski lift to make that perfect showstopper kinda wedding exit! We bet, you won’t regret the decision once you see your wedding videography – like you are in a bubble you’d never want to pop.

Helicopter

This final one is the answer to every question aimed at the grandest exit of all times. Get on the helipad and make the most dramatic wedding exit in a helicopter, leaving everyone awestruck. Into the sky, enjoying the views, this exit will give you one of the most memorable moments of your life.

The exits are special and should be celebrated in a grand way as they form the final moments of your singlehood. As you move towards your happiest change of life, it deserves every grand kind of celebration.

5 Fabulous Reasons to Have a First Look at your Wedding

In years past people have been believing that seeing your wife before the wedding ceremony brings bad luck for the groom. However, the progressive world has evolved since then and most couples have stopped being superstitious about these things. More and more couples are opting to have a first look at their weddings.

A first look is relatively a modern custom where the bride and groom see each other for the first time in the wedding attire, earlier than at the aisle. It’s the moment of revealing the couples’ wedding look to each other before the wedding ceremony. It is a great concept and is becoming popular by the day. If you are planning to tie the knot, it’s worth a consideration. Let us take you through some of the reasons why you should consider having the first look at your wedding.

First look brings the best look

Since it’s done at the beginning of the day, you are your freshest best! Your look and attire are flawless at that time, hence, it’s the perfect moment to capture your perfect looks. As the day progresses, which will be real quick we might add, your look is not going to stay as immaculate as it did early in the day. Therefore, this time is best to have some great wedding photography.

Great to calm the wedding jitters

Pre-wedding jitters are understood and no one has escaped from them. However, the first look can help ease those butterflies. During the first look, you and your partner get some quality time to be alone and calm each other’s anxiety down. Plus, you get out of that ‘will he like my look?’ or the ‘how do I look?’ thoughts as you walk the aisle! The first look gives you ample time to discuss how great you both look and we all would agree to that – once your partner compliments you, the world becomes a better place already.

For that precious alone time before the big exchange

Your first look is ironically the first time being single and alone with your partner and also your last, and by that we mean, you won’t be single anymore when you walk down that aisle. So if you decide to go for your first look, you would be spending some quality time with your partner before you both get sucked into the celebrations. Then it’s all about being surrounded by friends and relatives.

Gorgeous photo ops

With first look come fresh appearances and solitude of you both. This means – great opportunities for clicking your wedding portraits. In fact, if you have decided to hire a wedding videographer, even photos won’t be able to do justice to your first look. That first expression of your partner when he sees you all dolled up for your big day is too precious to be captured only in photos. And such wedding photo ops are more vital during the winters when you have a lesser number of hours of natural light needed for a perfect wedding photoshoot.

Save time for your guests

Getting your first look means you can have your wedding photoshoot before the ceremony begins. Which in turn saves a lot of time which is usually taken up by wedding portraits. That, in turn, gives you ample time to spend with your guests and enjoy your happiest day with them. Since you are done with most of the photoshoot for the both of you during your first look, you can utilize and devote time after the ceremony to your family and friends. Well, after all, their purpose is the same as yours – to celebrate your love!

Times have changed and superstitious beliefs have given way to progressiveness. That being said, it is still a personal choice as a couple has other reservations when it comes to having the first look at their wedding. This happens due to various reasons like a couple might not be comfortable displaying their emotions or might want to save time for the wedding celebrations only. However, most of the time, the pros outweigh the cons.

5 Tips for a Cozy 2021 Winter Wedding

Tis the season of cozy cuddles, warm blankets and smokin’ hot cocoa. If you think your upcoming winter wedding is going be challenging, think of these things and relax. After all, such a romantic occasion calls for all things romantic like these. Love is all you need, they say and cuddles, blankets, and hot cocoa are indeed all things love!

However, apart from these things, there are a few others that you can embrace to have a perfect and romantic winter wedding. We have shortlisted the five most important factors that you need to keep in mind while planning your winter wedding. Read to know more.

Bundle up

Whether it’s you, your partner, or all your guests, ensure that everyone is dressed keeping in mind the weather conditions. You could remind them about it via the invite, hinting at the climate and its Dos and Donts. It is advisable to invest in a cozy pair of tights that you can wear underneath your dress, in case your legs aren’t exposed by it. Another great idea would be to opt for a wedding dress with long sleeves to keep away from the chill. Let’s remind you that at times, silhouette makes all the difference, and sleeves do not always matter. You can look as sexy as you want to look despite being fully clothed. Pick a silhouette that flaunts your body while keeping you warm from the inside.

Say hello to winter wedding accessories

You have heaps of winter accessories and you don’t repeat them often. But did you know, those winter accessories can help you get through that chill on your wedding evening? Yeah, that chic cape or that glam faux fur throw that you saw at Nordstrom will prove to be your perfect companion. You could also be a trendsetter wearing denim or leather jackets over your wedding dress. A fuzzy warm scarf would also do the trick, you could also opt for a glitzy one and take the glam quotient a notch up. For a winter wedding, do not hesitate to add dark and bold colors. They add an elegant touch to your wedding and the effects of it on your wedding photography are spectacular.

Take care of your guests

Given the chill, do not forget to ensure that your wedding venue is a comfortable cozy place for your guests to enjoy every moment of your wedding. Start with a coat check right as they enter. Inform them well about the coat check (maybe through the wedding invite) so that they do not hesitate to wear coats and land up sneezing at your wedding. Pick a nice hot drink for your guests on arrival, like a hot toddy bar, cocoa, soup, or hot chocolate. For outdoor weddings, you could add an ample stock of pashminas and blankets for your guests so they can beat the chill with ease. You could also keep heaters or fire features at convenient gaps. Candles are another great way to add mild heat, romance, and light to an outdoor wedding.

Pay attention to the timing

We all know that with winters come early dusks. Getting your wedding photography in natural light might be a challenge. Therefore, remember to get your wedding portraits done before the dusk strikes. Another challenge would be getting an outdoor shoot, however, with well-thought-of plans, that can be achieved perfectly. Dress keeping in mind the climate conditions, wear proper shoes in case you are planning to shoot in the snow and do it before the night falls. You don’t want to pose while freezing yourself away. The wedding videography should also be timed carefully.

Prepare for all things winter!

Winter brings with it chill, extreme chill at times, snow, blizzards, and what not! As romantic as it feels, winter can be really harsh at times. Keeping all that in mind, you should do all the needful preparations like the arrangement of parking in close proximity of the wedding venue only, well-heated smoking zones for those who want to go out for a smoke and other such things. Have back up plans regarding your photoshoot or videography in cases of blizzards. And do not forget about plan Bs for suppliers or contractors for specific purposes.

These are pretty much all the important stuff that you really need to care about while planning for your winter wedding. If you are cautious about these things then you are all set for a memorable wedding, which everyone would be able to enjoy and cherish.

6 Wedding Trends for 2020 You Can Look Forward To

The ball drops and another year rolls in. What a year, huh? We will soon be stepping into a brand new year, and also a whole new decade. As 2019 comes to a glorious end, 2020 comes at us with the whole new box of wonders. If you have set a date to tie the knot anytime next year, we are here to give you a fresh breeze of inspiration which holds promises to be big trends in the next year.

2020 seems to be the perfect balance of going inwards and keeping your conscience happy and going all out with opulence, drama, and a peppering of mystery. The duality promises to be thrilling and we can’t wait to see what these trend predictions play out. Let us take a close look at how 2020 will look like in terms of wedding trends.

The Right Cause

If there was ever a time to care for a cause, this is it, because the world sure has a lot of causes which could use some attention. And what better way to share the joy and steer the focus to some cause which is close to your heart than using party favors as your charity? Give back to the community by adding a charity to your wedding registry or thank your guests for celebrating with you by donating to a charity of your choice.

Opulent Photo Booths

Photo booths are great, and even more so when the photo booths are no less than the set of a period drama backdrop. The experience is elevated by several levels, and are more artful in a Kardashian-meets-Shakespeare way. The effect is deliciously opulent like all your guests are posing for a luxury magazine cover. Bring in the moody tones and metallics and take the cute high school photo booths to a whole another level. Bonus? Your guests will love and cherish the perfectly captured and edited portrait of them delivered right to their doorstep following the wedding!

Unveil the Drama

Veils are going to sport a strong presence, come 2020. They are either going to be supersized by triple-fold or be unmissably bold in its presence or not be there at all. There is no mid-way here. Think along the lines of the dramatic veil sported by Priyanka Chopra and Nicky Hilton- that’s the effect we will be going for in 2020. The veil is either going to be blown out of proportion (quite literally) or be non-existent in the coming year.

The Allure of Unknown

There is definitely a wave of spirituality and mystical in this troubled time, and it has certainly trickled down to weddings as well. People have an allure for the unknown and weddings are certainly a great place to explore the same. Not only is it a great way of entertaining and keeping your guests busy, but it is also an inclusive way of passing on that feel-good around, irrespective of faith, creed, deco, and vibe of the wedding. 2020 predicts tarot and palm readings, crystal healing, and aura paintings.

Cheese Galore

‘Let there be cake!’, they said. But next year will surely see something called the ‘cheese hour’, a more interesting and decadent version of the traditional sweet table. Mounts of cheese, crackers, nuts, relishes, and fruits, which you can’t possibly say no to! Think of a charcuterie board, lux it up and multiply it seven folds in proportions, and there you have it- a phenomenal cheese table!

Sustainability

Caring for the environment is the need of the hour and certainly cannot be stored in the box labeled as a trend. However, the sustainable wedding is certainly bringing the right kind of attention to the issue at hand. It encouraged one to get closer to nature and keep technology and artificial materials at bay. Sustainability is certainly a strong presence in the current year and is anticipated to be more so in the coming year. Sustainable weddings are extended from food to flowers, decor to waste management, and everything in between. This is certainly a nice ‘trend’ to exercise.

The ebb and tide of trends are dynamic and can shape the overall evolution of any industry at large- be it fashion, wedding, or decor. What is in trend certainly does not direct the way you should be planning your wedding, but it surely gives you a fresh wave of perspective on what you could be considering. 2020 comes with a whole bunch of amazing reasons for us to be excited for the year ahead when it comes to weddings. Are you excited? Because we sure are!
