Start Off Simple
One of the best pieces of advice when it comes to organizing a wedding is to make most of the moment – but also make the moment simple. Usually, smaller gatherings give the bride and groom more room to show off their personalities and ones where they can actually work harder to make things at their best without sacrificing any space or extra budget.
At the end of the day, your wedding should look and feel down to earth, approachable – but still special.
Simple Ceremony, Big Celebration
There are many couples who learned how to make most of their weddings. Nowadays, one of the biggest wedding trends, in general, is to go all out in terms of the celebration. From the actual welcome party to the big rehearsal dinner, the afterparty and the next-day brunch, couples are embracing the opportunities to spend time with everyone and celebrate. So, it is safe to say that today, a typical wedding doesn’t only last for one night.
One of the best practices in this manner is to divide a grand space into something cozier. The goal is to create the illusion of intimacy and play with the lights. When doing this, you can also break your guests into smaller groupings – after all, this is a proven technique to bring all of them to the dance floor!
Bold And Rich Decor
With bright and bold design dominating the trend market, 2018/19 is also a time to go bold and rich in terms of decor. Couples are embracing more color combinations, showstopping backdrops as well as fantasy florals. In their opinion, color is one of the easiest ways to enrichen a space. Play with colors set on a minimal toned background to give the setting a burst of personality.
So, keep your eye out for warm corals, brighter pinks, purples, and blues as well as moody jewel tones – all part of this year’s wedding trends and artsy techniques.
Wedding Photography: All About Quality
