Bridal Guide: Wedding Trends for 2013

Lets talk about trends.  As we all know, they are constantly changing.  Who hasn't looked back at their parents old wedding album and though "Oh god, what was my mom wearing?!"  And the same holds true for all aspects of the wedding.  Back in 80's you weren't seeing  photo booths and chalkboard decor all over, while nowadays they are seem almost everywhere.  So what are the trends of 2013?  Luckily, Bridal Guide has made a list for us.  Lets go through it and share some our our favorite pinspirtation!

"The palette that pairs with the new formal wedding? Neutral"

       


         


Now, this is probably my favorite trend of all, and one that i hope stays around a long time (like forever).  The neutral colors make the decor so elegant, but without being over the top. In the words of Teresa Giudice, LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

"What’s In: Peonies."

Ugh, another trend I am loving.  Peonies are EVERYWHERE these days, and I say the more the merrier.
Not only do they look beautiful on their own, but they compliment so many other types of flowers when they are paired in a bouquet.  This trend also goes along with the neutral trend a bit seeing that they often coming in neutral colors.

"Pattern."

       

   

   

            

Ok, so in the article they are referencing invitations, but lets be real; big, bold patterns are being used throughout entire weddings.  We see them on bridesmaids, groomsmen, table decor, and of course the invites.  I'm a fan of this trend, it definitely gives a wedding some umphhh and just overall equals fun.  However, patterns are "trendy" so who knows how long this one will stay popular.

"Those with a sweet tooth, take heart. According to Beth, dessert bars are here to stay"

 
       


 


Making my hungrayyyy!!! Yeah dessert bars are super cool and a really fun idea.  And what is great is that they can be incorporated into any theme, so I think they'll be here a while.

"Going Green And DIY"

And of course the DIY wedding.  Another fun approach to a wedding, and a great way to not spend a fortune in the process.  I like DIY weddings, they're super cute and intimate, but are they practical?  When your making that invite  list how do you keep that number low?  Either way though, they are cute!

So yeah, those are some trends of 2013.  And we like em.  Do we love em? Will we love em in a few years?  That is yet to be forseen.
