Wedding Trends for 2014


-->A new year is approaching and with all the excitement of the upcoming holidays couples are gearing into their wedding plans. Let’s discuss the few wedding trends that we foresee will crop up. Follow our wedding ramblings till the end of the year.

1001 Themes
Back in the day, themes were a myth. Your mother and grandmothers would just select their favorite color for each item resulting in pink bouquets, brown linens and blue suits -a multitude of colors on one day.

Now, themes are a must. With couple clamoring to “beat the Joneses” a wedding without a theme is like a marching band without the drums. So the past few years we’ve seen all kinds of themes emerge and every couple putting their flavor into each wedding design to call their own.

The trend for next year is the mother of all theme’s, a layering of themes on top of themes from a particular monogram (as a theme) that is seen on all your stationary to the shade of a color (as a theme) on all your attire to a thematic concept (as a theme) such as a love bird concept seen in all your decoration and finally a particular flowers (as a theme) in all your arrangements.

A multitude of themes for one wedding may sound a little anal, but trust me we are definitely getting there. For the couple, they get to share more about themselves with their guests making the wedding more intimate. For the planner, we get to think outside the box and let our creativity shine so we love themes!

For all you potential bridezillas keep in mind 2 main things when planning your layering of themes; 

1) Less is more. Having too many things in play will look like your concept is all over the place. 

2) Honestly, only you and your wedding planner will know what themes are even in play no one else will bother, pay attention to or admire. 

Sad but true.
