Top 10 Trends for 2023

Ceiling Instillations

Couples are looking for a “wow” factor and ceiling instillations make that impression. Ceiling instillations are being seen over the dance floor and over the tables at the reception. As wedding décor moves in multi-dimensional directions, we can expect to see ceiling instillations for many seasons.

Dining Room Table Décor

As weddings have become smaller and more intimate in guest size, the tablescape decors have become more and more elevated. Couples want their guests to feel comfortable and relaxed at their weddings. One way to achieve this relaxed vibe is to make the tablescapes feel home like. This also works out great for the couple because the décor can be re-purposed in their own home after the wedding.

Pink Weddings

Fans of “Steel Magnolias” rejoice because “Blush and Bashful” are back! The pink wedding is back. An overall trend is the return of the “feminine wedding.” We are seeing this in wedding dress styles and it is caring over to the décor and color palette. The wedding dress design is now the inspiration for décor and with light flowerly appliques all over bridal gowns….pink is a perfect complimentary color.

Dark and Moody Weddings

If Pink is not your color, then you fall at the other end of the spectrum. Dark and moody is also a popular choice in 2023. All other aspects remain the same in trends just the dark color palette is being explored.

Puffed Sleeves

In the 1980’s we loved our puffed sleeves and in in the 2020’s they are back. And we are obsessed. We find ourselves “hearting” every gown on social media with a sleeve!

Green & Blue Suits for Grooms

Guys are loving color and we are seeing this trend in their tux and suit colors! Black will never go away, but the green and blue tux is trending enough for us to notice. If you man wants to stand out with a little color, suggest green or blue.

Creative Cocktails

Everything is personalized in weddings now…including cocktails. Signature cocktails have always had their place during the cocktail hour, but now people are stepping it up with custom ice cubes, lavish garnishes, and unique ways of mixing the cocktails with smoke, dry ice and interesting containers.

Heavy Flash

Candid photos with heavy flash is a trend we are seeing as we view wedding galleries. It could compliment TikToc and other filters we see on photo apps but the photos are fun and your photographer doesn’t have to edit them…so they are loving this trend too!

Arches

Cake arches, ceremony arches, photo booth arches…metal, wood, greenery, or balloons. Arches are everywhere – in every shape and every style. We are swooning over the cake arches that are really elevating the cake tables!

Gold

Gold has been the metallic of choice for a few wedding seasons now, but we are seeing it as the only choice now. From centerpieces to flatware, gold is in!
