It has only been several days since the royal wedding and we still are not done analyzing every single moment of the wonderful ceremony! The royal wedding has certainly launched many new wedding trends so if you are ready to tie the knot this year, here are the hottest new trends you should follow.
Royal inspired long veil or a dramatic bridal cape
Choose a long veil in color matching to your wedding dress inspired by the lovely Duchess of Sussex, wear it pushed back and you are ready for the aisle. If you are a bit more alternative you can swap the veil for a bridal cape and amaze your guests. Choose sleek and simple cape inspired by the amazing Solange Knowles; go short and beaded for vintage, retro, old Hollywood glamour or a full-length cape for a dramatic effect! Whatever you choose one thing is certain – you will rock your wedding day look!

Everything blush and gold
Choose these wonderful colors to achieve the glamorous (and feminine) look of your wedding. It is a perfect color palette for country house weddings because it puts an accent on the romance and it gently and subtly helps create a perfect wedding atmosphere, overflowing with love.
Dark and moody florals
In contrast with the gentle blush and gold colors for the setting, moody colorful flower pieces represent a huge 2018 must do for your wedding trend. It is all about darker, detailed and textured florals, with a lot of greenery – we can sum it up in two words: dark and moody. That includes gorgeous shades of purples such as wine, lilac, mauve and lavender that you must intertwine in your wedding. Moody florals put a special romantic and sophisticated touch to a wedding celebration. Moody colors in combination to vintage utensils and silverware in a rustic setting, pub or a barn venue will certainly make your wedding trendy as much as beautiful!
A different kind of elopement
The trend that has been gaining popularity for several years now is a destination wedding, a romantic elopement. But what is trendy this year is eloping with family to a faraway place and having an intimate ceremony surrounded by the ones that are the most important. It is not all about escaping the hustle and bustle of wedding planning and organizing, it is more about doing something completely different and sharing the overflow of the emotions on your big day with the ones who are closest to you. You also don’t have to compromise on certain wedding traditions when eloping. Make sure you take a documentary wedding photographer with you to capture this unique adventure with your friends and family.
Authentic destination wedding
Speaking of destination weddings, it is all going to be about embracing the local culture of the exotic location. According to wedding planners in Bali, more than half of the couples that got married in wonderful Ubud asked specifically for an authentic wedding ceremony. Some brides even wore the traditional native wedding gowns and it is amazing! Just imagine traveling to a unique place and getting married by the local tradition and customs! It sounds dreamy – and it is perfect for all the couples who really want to do something different and get off the grid!
The favorite local pub as a wedding venue
All the future brides and grooms should definitely know about the newest wedding trend of choosing your favorite pub as your wedding venue. Not only do these types of venues allow you to party all night long surrounded with your fav people but also you will set the laid-back tone for the wedding and finally avoid all the traditional dos and don’ts on your big day. The best part is that the pub venue will help strip away any sense of formality around your big day so you and your guests can feel comfortable and ready to party!
Well, you might not have the opportunity to organize a Duke and Duchess of Sussex –inspired wedding but you sure can make it as charming as the royal one was. Be trendy, be authentic be yourself and show off your style and personality through your big day plans. Good thing is that 2018 is all about being unique and bypassing the traditional. Therefore whatever you choose will be perfect as long as you two do it your way!
