Beautiful wedding trends for 2020

Blushing brides planning their 2020 nuptials will be spoilt for choice with the array of wedding trends emerging in the new year.

Get a start on your planning and take these three fantastic trends into account when preparing for your big day!

INTIMATE CEREMONIES

Intimate meaningful celebrations are the way forward for 2020. Gone are the days of inviting all your Facebook friends and their families. Couples are opting for a relaxed and informal gathering of their nearest and dearest, also referred to as a micro-wedding. Reducing the guest list to as little as 40 guests. Allowing the couples to spend more quality time with their nearest and dearest. This, also leaves more budget per head enabling couples to create a more bespoke experience.  

Customised wine, personalised food and dessert and elaborate table centrepieces. These go hand in hand with over-sized décor, floral, balloon and lighting ceiling installations, floor arches and engraved floor to ceiling seating charts.

GOING SUSTAINABLE / ECO WEDDINGS 

In these eco-conscious times, reducing your carbon footprint in all areas of life is important. Why not at your wedding?

Couples are opting to reduce food waste, reduce the use of plastic and even sharing their flowers and décor with other couples using the same venue. Many couples are pledging the have zero waste wedding or giving back by using recycled paper or planting trees to create a zero-carbon footprint.

A great way to do this is to source out sustainable venues. Ones that may have a comprehensive recycling program or source locally produced food.

BEAUTIFUL LIGHTING

When the sun sets the lights come on, and this year’s top trend is mood lighting. Whether you are indoors or outdoors, great lighting will make your wedding or reception glisten in the moonlight and sizzle as the sunsets.

Out of the “lightbox” thinking enables couples to bring the indoors outdoors by hanging chandeliers in the trees, weaving fairy lights through the undergrowth or vintage lamps on outdoor tables. And the outdoors indoors with elaborate floral and chandelier ceiling installation literally creating an outdoor garden atmosphere inside some of Melbourne’s upmarket venues.

Other trends include using customised neon signage lights to welcome the guests, provide direction or wish the happy couple all the best. Or having a customised “gobo” inside some moving lights with the couple’s name or date of the wedding shining on the floor and walls of the venue, creating a truly individualised experience.
