Trends for Spring/Summer 2013
This season, trends are falling into four distinct categories that correlate to the bride's personality and style preferences. Here's a quick overview of what we're seeing and a slideshow of trend examples designed by our talented wedding designers.
Classic
This look is for the more traditional bride who's being drawn toward the following trends:
|
|
Bouquet Style: Rounded, hand-tied bouquets. Very classic! |
|
|
Colors: Pastels such as soft pinks, lavenders and peaches. |
|
|
Personalization: Heirloom brooches or veils worked into bouquets for a touch of "something old." Adding feathers to lighten the visual weight of the bouquet helps keep all of the attention on the bride! |
|
|
Dress: This look pairs well with big, beautiful ball gowns. |
Modern
Brides that gravitate toward clean lines and structured style go for a more modern look that incorporates the following trends:
|
|
Bouquet Style: Contemporary, sculpted bouquets, such as the square, Euro-style pave design. Unique handles are also in, including metal holders with built-in water wicks to retain moisture. |
|
|
Colors: Bright pops of color against a muted background. Hot color combos include cherry red and gray/blue, or sea foam green and vibrant pink. |
|
|
Personalization: Adding succulents to the bridal bouquet is a unique and memorable twist. LED light strings can also add a modern glow for evening weddings. |
|
|
Dress: Modern bouquets pair well with the sleek, floor length mermaid, goddess or column gowns that this bride is drawn to. |
Romantic
This romantic trend is ideal for those couples who dream of transporting their wedding guests to a whimsical land of magic and fairies, perhaps with a themed wedding based on books or movies.
|
|
Bouquet Style: Billowy blossoms of peonies and garden roses for the bride. Flower girls can pretend they are fairy princesses with a wand-type bouquet with trailing ribbons. |
|
|
Colors: Soft blues, lavenders and creams – or any alternative that fits the theme. |
|
|
Personalization: Add accents that fit the theme, such as seashells in the bridal bouquet or a bobber in the boutonnière for a wedding fantasy set in the sea. |
|
|
Dress: Brides looks for dresses inspired by the theme, perhaps something that resembles the costume of a character the story. |
Rustic Chic
Perfect for brides planning natural, garden-inspired weddings, this look captures an outdoor organic feel with a refined twist. Trends include:
|
|
Bouquet Style: Bird nest bouquets and birdcage centerpieces using fresh-from-the-garden blooms are popular with this bride. |
|
|
Colors: Earthy colors such as browns, greens, tea rose and ivories. |
|
|
Personalization: Burlap and twine accents in lieu of ribbon or rhinestones. Faux bird accents inserted into bouquets or centerpieces are also on trend. |
|
|
Dress: This bride feels comfortable in a subdued empire waist chiffon dress paired with cowboy boots. |
