Pantone announced their color of the year for 2015, Marsala. But what other wedding trends can we expect to see as we move toward January, 2015?
The trends for 2015 include some of the newest trends going and not so new wedding trends. So here we go:
Dresses:
– Romantic/timeless gowns with new necklines including the One Shoulder, Caps and the illusion of sleeves with sheer sheath will be very popular (Oscar De La Renta /Carolina Herrera);
-Detachable Over Skirts (tulle/lace skirts);
-Colorful gowns – from Gray, Metallic of Gold and Silver, Mint Green and even Blue silk from Monique Lulliher. This is a fairly new trend in the U.S. but is seen elsewhere and starting to make its way here. (Ladies, never worry, White and Ivory gowns will always be the main stay.)
-Sleeves make a come back, even if it’s just lace.
Color Schemes:
-Rich/Royal Colors: Colbalt Blue, Orchid Purple, Burghandy and Plum, with Pantone’s color of the year being Marsala (a rich wine color shade)
-Softer colors of Champagne, Blush and Teal Green which are always in season
-Patterns: Geometric (Chevron was very popular in 2014)
Flowers:
-Romantic and Luxe Centerpieces are coming back;
-Crowns for the brides hair piece (boho chic) and veils;
-Clean and Classic bouquets and centerpieces
New Trends:
-Out with the photo booth and in with Caricature Artists for your guests;
-Extravagant Groom Cakes (realistic cakes like a pizza box or game stations)
-Extravagant uplighting to make a statement
This is just the tip of the iceberg as we move into 2015, as new trends always develop as the year goes on. But color, romance and royalty would be the trend for our lovely brides and grooms as we move out of 2014 and into a brand new year and new wedding season.
Happy Planning!
