8 Stand-out Wedding Trends To Pay Attention To In 2019

Maanyata Thu|Feb 28, 2019

If you're searching for guidance on the goings on of weddings in 2019, we've rounded up eight stand-out trends for getting married this year.

As a bride, there is a lot of things that you have to prepare for your big day from the wedding dress, decoration theme to florals. Therefore, we rounded up eight popular wedding trends in 2019 below. Let’s check it out!

TIERED WEDDING DRESS

Tiered wedding dress styles are hitting the scene like never before, and they will make you feel like a contemporary princess for your wedding day. Their stacked and layered styles add new intrigue, as well as exciting volume to a more traditional wedding, looks.

If you would like to wear a tiered wedding dress for your big day, you can look to actress-singer Mandy Moore in this stunning blush pink Rodarte Haute Couture gown or this flapper-esque fringed dress from fashion designer Lela Rose for more inspiration.

VEILED ROMANCE

If there was anything that we learnt from watching Meghan Markle become the Duchess of Sussex in May, it is this: the statement veil is back. The sixteen-foot veil, which was designed by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy, was embroidered with the signature flowers from all of the countries in the British Commonwealth and made one significant impact as the Duchess stepped into the church.

However, not all the statement veils are supposed to be sixteen feet and made by Givenchy. For example, short lace veil that wore across the face, lace-trimmed veil or even coloured veil will also bring the maximum impact.

CUT LOOSE

Do not drag your dress onto the dance floor once the rings are exchanged and done; the year 2019 will be all about the outfit changes. Choose something short, fun and flirty to make your big re-entry in and it does not always have a dress.

Channel your best Nicole Warne (in Toni Maticevski) or Gwyneth Paltrow (in Stella McCartney’s jumpsuit) and then opt for pants to complete your gorgeous look.

CUTTING EDGE

The style of your invitation cards will become the template of your wedding day. While the year 2018 witnessed the popularity of graceful calligraphy, 2019 will be more about the nouveau. Ask for one acetate overlay, one off-beat foil on the lettering, or bold lining to the envelope to ensure the stationery stands out from the letterbox.

CUT THE CAKE

After many years of traditional cake reigning supreme, we are predicting the year 2019 will be slice and dice it. Choose one dessert table, one personal favourite treat or something trendy on the social media (like a doughnut wall, an ice-cream cart or individual cakes for every different guest) instead.

LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU

We do not have any problem with the DJ or classic band option but why don’t we try something new that will make your big day more memorable to the guests. Crafting tables, face painters, circus performers or live tarot readers will surely loosen up the guests and ensure your nuptials will get talked about for years.

ULTRA-VIOLET

Ultra-Violet is a beautiful complement for flowers and is a perfect palette for weddings of all seasons. That’s why this Pantone's Color of the year 2018 will still make a splash in this year. Add just a pop of Ultra-Violet to your day by weaving the colour into a colourful bouquet, or only by wrapping one of your wedding cake’s tiers in deep purple fondant for a modern look.

GONE GREEN

Meghan Markle is not the only royal that we are taking inspiration for the wedding trend in 2019. The royal wedding of Princess Eugenie and her fiancé Jack Brooksbank has tapped one popular trend, and it’s called eco-conscious 'I do’. This trend is all about sending the wedding invitation on the biodegradable paper, requesting the guests to forgo the presents for donation to charitable organisations or donating leftovers to local shelters.
