Wedding Trends of 2022

3/17/2022

0 Comments

 
Ever since the pandemic hit in early 2020, lots of weddings have been delayed... until now! We've made it to 2022 and these weddings are making a huge comeback and with the most fun, exciting and interesting trends. According to theknot.com, there will 2.6 million weddings this year. Think about that for a second... 
Two whole years of pushing off weddings. That's a LOT of time for brides and grooms to brainstorm what they truly want for their wedding and save for it! So what are the "trends" for this coming year? Here's a few ideas, including some of the ones we LOVE aaaand some trends we think need to go. 

Disclaimer: Overall, you do whatever you want for your wedding. These trends are meant to be inspiration, not rules to follow!

Wedding trends on the rise:
  • Weekday weddings - many are opting for a Friday wedding and then allowing themselves to really soak in the beautiful moments over the weekend. I'm in!
  • Intimate weddings - instead of throwing a huge bash, many are honing in on the most important aspect: you're getting to marry your soulmate and want to spend it with a select few people who cherish you two the most. 
  • Eco-friendly - Ever thought about using leaves or other biodegradable items from nature for place cards or decor? I didn't but now I am! Another option for couples is to use virtual save the dates - I'm all in on saving time and paper! Grandma and grandpa will figure it out ;) 
  • New color schemes - I'm not going to lie, I laughed out loud while researching the new color trends. They are ALL over the place! But this makes it even more fun - so many choices and you really can't go wrong! Evergreen fog is a new hit. Light blues are taking the stage. Darker, bolder colors are making their way just as much as brighter colors that are also all the rage!
  • Bridal separates - Want to have two dresses but don't wanna pay for two dresses? Girl, the trends are here for you. Think about getting separates! You now can buy a dress that's a separate top and bottom allowing you to really personalize your wedding gown. Endless combos for mixing and matching tops! Or you can add a skirt on top of your dress. The options are endless and gorgeous.
  • Minimalist theme - Some couples are thinking less is more! Choosing only the necessities, the minimalist theme allows brides and grooms to focus on what truly matters!
  • Fun ceremony ideas - Give me a groomsman in a fanny pack or my grandma holding a basket of rose petals instead of flower girls any day! I'm all in on having a friend or family member officiating your wedding. Choosing non-traditional ceremony songs makes this event even more personal. Couples are really seeking a more personalized experience and it's so much fun!
  • Sweet touches - We've been to weddings that have become so personalized and they're a blast. Think about making each guest feel welcome by adding in some personal touches. Some couples have addressed each table by writing a message specialized just for those seated there! Just imagine you and your future spouse running around to each table to get a photo op with everyone - how special will those photos be?! There are so many ways to interact with your guests, even if you don't have much time to sit down with each of them during the busy night!

We also thought it would be fun for you to see what trends we love and the ones we think need to go.
​

​All the trends we LOVE:

Bailey: When the first dance happens right after grand entrances!
Taylor: Instead of veils, let's bring in the capes, I'm alllll about them capes! Additionally, give me all the Friday weddings, I want the ENTIRE weekend to party, not just one day!
Shelby: Photo backdrop walls for photo ops!
Kelli: Destination weddings!
All the trends that need to go:
Bailey: The chicken dance or cha cha slide.
Taylor: I love all things weddings. But if I had to choose one it's the garter toss. Oh! Or wearing heels on your wedding day - give me tennis shoes or give me death.
Shelby: Bride and groom cake toppers

What are some trends you are digging and some you're ready to get rid of?

with love,
🤍​ Taylor
