RUSTIC

Illuminate the room with words like Love, Joy, Laughter and Soulmate. Creative lighting is all the rage for 2016; hanging baubles with candles or chandeliers covered in your favorite flowers.

ILLUSION

NATURAL FLORAL

A bride is taking a few more ques from Hollywood and going  more grand in 2016. The cascading bridal bouquet adds drama to the bride’s walk down the aisle.

DESSERT BAR

Ice cream is a tasty addition to a dessert bar too.

GOLD

This year we expect to see rose gold to truly catch on with the announcement of Pantone’s Color of the Year palette of Rose Quartz and Serenity.

The classic bride can appreciate these wedding trends for their staying power and the fashionista uses these trends to create a celebration worthy of the pages of a magazine. How will you weave these trends into your 2016 wedding day?
