Nowadays, a wedding is not only a joyful event in the life of newlyweds, but also a responsible event that requires careful preparation. During the planning of the event, the bride and groom become real event managers who have to delve into the smallest details of the upcoming celebration. Organizing a wedding is not easy, which is why the Fine Living entertainment channel (Platinum Marriages show) has chosen the most popular wedding trends this year, which will surely come in handy when planning a celebration.

Today there is a huge variety of toppings, creams, types and designs, but we suggest staying at the most popular ones.

The classics never get old, so if you like tall, tiered cakes, then you should pay attention to traditional wedding cake… To prevent a sweet treat from looking boring and ordinary, you can decorate it with an interesting fondant finish. Decorate the white glaze with lacy confectionery material, for example, mastic or white chocolate, or make tiers with different shades. It will be even more interesting this way.

Also this year, an unusual wedding dessert trend has come into vogue – cake line… It resembles a traditional wedding feast in shape, but in fact consists of a set of beautifully decorated cakes, laid out in tiers.

By the way, many couples prefer just such a dessert, because it looks very unusual and the newlyweds do not have to waste time cutting the treats. In addition, it is very convenient to treat guests with individual cakes (cupcakes, macarons).

Another popular and trendy wedding dessert option is ombre cake… Such a delicacy is made using the technique of transition from a more intense cream or glaze color to a lighter one. An interesting solution when the cake echoes the wedding decor or has similar elements to the bride’s wedding dress.

One of the important points in planning a ceremony is the venue and the style of the celebration. It is important that future newlyweds have a clear idea of ​​how they want to see their holiday. Over the past few years, couples have begun to pay more attention to the choice of location for the long-awaited event. Restaurants and cafes have long faded into the background, and their place was taken by open areas or non-standard premises.

Lofts – a great place where you can realize all your ideas, because such a room has a large area, and also allows you to create convenient zoning based on the preferences of the couple.

Country houses with a backyard suitable for those who dream of an outdoor ceremony and want to celebrate an outdoor event. You can beat the backyard with a flower arch and spaced chairs that will create a ceremonial path to an impromptu altar.

Open verandas and parks – a great solution for a boho wedding that combines bohemian and hippie styles. In this case, you can use bright dream catchers, feathers, lace, vintage chairs and other furniture elements as decor. An outdoor celebration will create a pleasant atmosphere in the summer and will also allow for interesting contests that require more space.

This season, the color palette is similar to last year. The use of matte pastel colors such as sky blue or lavender will add softness and elegance to any wedding. One of the trends is decorating the room, tables, chairs and even wedding cakes with fresh flowers.

Also, if you do decide to hold an outdoor event, look out for satin ribbons of various colors that flap beautifully in the wind. Do not forget about natural materials for the decor of the room and the ceremonial path: wood, stone, live bindweed, the use of twine – all this will add originality and style to the ceremony. Such an abundance of natural materials suggests a fashionable rustic style.

To add some variety, you can use empty light bulbs as mini flower vases or cute field bouquets hanging from trees or from the ceiling. Decorate the most ordinary bottle with a simple twine, and you get a designer handmade vase. And jam jars will come in handy as gifts for guests. Cook your favorite jam, pour into jars and decorate each with lace or ribbons. Such a memorable gift will delight guests and leave a pleasant memory of your celebration.

During the preparation of the wedding event, it is important not to lose sight of the various details – the decoration of the room, the choice of suitable tableware and textiles.

A wedding dinner is a traditional and integral part of the holiday. Five years ago it was popular to seat guests at different tables, but now the tradition of a common “family” seating at the table is back in fashion. Such an organization of a gala dinner implies the presence of a long table, at the head of which the newlyweds sit.

It is also worth paying attention to small details. A new trend in table setting has become a simple white tableware, which is a neutral element on a table decorated with flower arrangements, candles and other decorative elements. Basically, they are decorated with flower arrangements, to match the bride’s bouquet, or in the color palette of the wedding. In addition, many couples choose large candles for table décor.

We think no one will argue that a bouquet is an important accessory for the bride. Instead of the classic white roses and lilies, peonies and various rare flowers, for example, eucalyptus fruits or a stone rose, have come into fashion. The use of wildflowers in their compositions continues to be at the peak of popularity.

Another option for creating a bouquet is to use one type of flowers, for example, only romantic peonies or bright orchids. It is important that the bridal bouquet is harmonious and fully combined with the chosen dress, hairstyle and shoes.

By the way, do not forget about the groom. One of the rules of this year is the boutonniere, which repeats the bridal bouquet, only in a reduced version. In this case, the young will look harmonious, and the unifying details will create the completeness of their images.

But back to the wedding setting. It is important that the overall style of the ceremony is maintained even in the smallest detail. Therefore, it is better to decorate the table with flower arrangements to match the bride’s bouquet and always kept in a common color palette.
