10 Wedding Trends We're Loving in 2022
As we start to see the busy Spring and Summer wedding season begin in Greensboro, NC, we can’t help but highlight and share with you the Top 10 Wedding Trends we are watching come to life!
Bold Color Palettes
Bringing in a vivid decor element like a bold citrus inspired color theme or a dramatic red tone, can bring on a whole new array of elegance and expression of who you are as a couple. While we still love blush pink, not having to be married to the idea of light tones will help show off your true personality! We love when our couples get creative and show off their fun and exciting side, to make a great experience for their guests…and we may have a bit of fun with it too!
Earth Tone Color Palettes
Now the polar opposite…for our couples who love their neutral tones, we have not forgotten about you! Earth tones are a beautiful way to avoid making the space feel empty when wanting to keep a simple vibe. This color palette provides clean and crisp lines while giving some warmth to your photos. The look is timeless and gives the sophistication and beauty you desire on your wedding day. Mixing blush tones in with sand and light grays provides a beautiful landscape to work with.
Statement Details
When it comes to making a statement with your wedding decor, let it be in the details! We love watching our couples find little…or big ways to make a statement within their day. Try using a decorative ceremony arch as a backdrop to your vows, welcoming guests with a champagne wall, adding special touches that tell your love story, including lush florals, wearing a lacy statement dress, or setting up a cigar bar. What we are saying is, it’s all in the details!!
Greenery
Adding some greenery is a great way to fill space, add texture, and create a finished look. Using it within each element of your day will create a seamless line to your decor. From the floral arrangements, to arbor decor, to the banquet tables, you can fill in the space and simultaneously make any other colors pop that you have incorporated in your day. It adds a piece of elegance that we love to see come alive against our wood floors and exposed brick!
Bridgerton Inspired Weddings
From the first season to the second, Bridgerton has brought a new level of dream decor ideas! By using gold accents, large floral pieces and bold decor elements you can create your own fantasy style wedding. Light blue, pink and lilac color schemes used within the attire or floral arrangements, even out the large, over the top design elements to bring harmony to the overall event design.
Colorful Hued Gowns & Suits
Speaking of switching up tradition…we love to see couples express themselves through their attire. Couples are starting to stray from the traditional white gown and black suit, and instead go for a colorful gown or velvet blue suit jacket. Breaking free from tradition and wearing whatever they truly want to wear on their day is something we can really get behind! We love to see change and something that is truly special to our couples as they celebrate with us.
Late Night Snacks
Who doesn’t love a late night snack? Offering guests some delicious, savory and salty foods will make them love you even more. No one can say no to grilled cheese, mini sliders, gyros, pulled pork tacos, Asian stir fry or popcorn after “last call!” Is anyone else getting hungry?? We love coming up with something creative for guests to enjoy that helps rejuvenate guests and keep the celebrations going!
Smaller Cakes
Cake is a staple at weddings, but one trend we have noticed is cakes have gotten smaller! More couples are turning towards cupcake bars or specialty desserts and keeping their cake just for cutting and saving for later. A small cutting cake with greenery is beautiful and elegant within photos and goes with any wedding theme.
Acrylic Signage
Acrylic signs are a beautiful way to guide guests through the event space. It brings a clean element but can also be personalized to your color theme and design elements. We love how elegant and beautifully seamless these signs look within our space. They are also very easy to design floral arrangements around and look great in photos. Quite a few of our brides have enjoyed creating them as a DIY project.
Weekday Weddings
Our last piece of trending news is Weekday Weddings! With weekend dates at popular venues like The Colonnade at Revolution Mill in short demand since the pandemic, couples are starting to lean into the idea of a weekday wedding. A couple perks of having a wedding during the week is usually that the rates are lower, there is more availability and you can snag your dream vendor team!
