No matter what size wedding you’re planning, there are many ways to incorporate a mix of old and new trends. Use this guide to find the details you want to throw into your big day!
A- Acrylic
From chairs, to table numbers, to signage, the possibilities are endless for incorporating this modern decor element into your special day.
B- Bar Cart
These adorable bubbly vans are going to make regular wedding bars a thing of the past.
C- Colored Glassware
A simple glassware update can elevate your entire tablescape with a pop of color!
D- Dessert Bar
Why have just cake when you could have all of this?!
E- Eucalyptus
The classic greenery is so versatile, we dare you to try to not use it.
F- Floral Confetti
This is a more sustainable option than rice or regular confetti, and it actually photographs quite well.
G- Geometric Accents
Gone are the days of circles or squares. Sneak in a little geo fun with a triangle altar arch or hexagonal terrariums.
H- Height Differences
Decor comes in sets of different sizes for a reason — they look better together! Add some height to your centerpieces by utilizing alternating height vases or candlesticks.
I- Industrial Venues
Think lofts, warehouses, abandoned factories — these spaces bring such a unique, industrial vibe!
J- Jean Jackets
Had to throw a bridal style tip in here! Matching denim jackets for the bridal party make for a killer bridesmaid gift and Instagram-worthy group shots.
K- Kids’ Table
Kids are a touchy wedding subject for some, but if you are inviting enough kids to run a daycare and they are old enough, giving them their own table with a paper “tablecloth” and crayons is a sweet touch.
L- Lounge Area
Lounge areas with a picture perfect velvet sofa have grown in popularity over the years, and if you have extra decor budget to spend, why not?
M- Macramé
Boho brides, unite! Macramé makes a fabulous altar backdrop, or simple chair decor.
N- Naked Cake
Perfectly imperfect, this rustic trend speaks for itself.
O- Overhead Greenery
Whether you have a garland hoop above the dance floor or hanging vines over the dining tables, this is definitely a trend that will make your guests instantly whip out their phones to document!
P- Pampas Grass
Say what you will, but we really don’t think this whimsical plant will be taken off a wedding trend list any time soon. Sneak it into your bouquet for a subtle appearance!
Q- Quaint Personalized Details
Everyone’s got a hashtag, but do you have personalized bar napkins? These are a super inexpensive way to add in some personalized details!
R- Rugs
Whether they are down the aisle or strategically placed around your setup, they add a warm, welcoming vibe that will make everyone feel at home.
S- String Lights
Hung inside or out, these will add a romantic, intimate vibe to any space.
T- Tents
Honestly if you have the option to use a tent for your wedding reception, DO IT. They’re such a fun, blank canvas with endless possibilities!
U- Unconventional Seating Arrangements
What’s the first thing a guest sees when they get to the wedding? The ceremony site! No better way to make a first impression than with a creative and unique seating set up.
V- Votives, Votives, Votives
You can truly never have too many votives. Mix and match different styles and shades of the same color to really tie in all your table decor together.
W- White Bridesmaids Dresses
This trend has grown in popularity over the last few years, and we hope it stays. White on white is just too chic!
X- X-Back Chairs
Also known as crossback chairs, these are an inexpensive chair upgrade that will add a romantic touch to your space. You can read more about our obsession with chairs (it’s a real thing) in this blog post.
Y- Yard Celebrations
Ideas include lawn games, a Photo Booth van, or even just an outdoor cocktail hour. Guests love an outdoor moment!
Z- Zoom
Even in normal times, there’s always someone who can’t make the event so this technical addition isn’t so bad!
