You heard the word here first! Now use it in conversation… Florals combined with balloons are becoming incredibly elegant and chic. Not just for kids’ parties!
Fun and fragrantSimplicity
Bridal gown trends will forever be changing, and rightly so. This year we’ll see a steer towards classic and simple dresses, thanks to the influence of a couple of royal weddings last year. Florals have seen the same ‘Meghan factor’ treatment, with simple flowers and plenty of foliage being the display of choice.

The dresses may be simple, but embellished crowns, intricate headpieces and decorated veils add all the detail you need! And thanks to Priyanka Chopra, epic veils are in too!

This year’s buzzword! A lot of couples are opting for plastic free, low impact weddings. Don’t worry, you can still do a five star wedding without harming our planet! Foam free flowers, locally sourced menus and ethical wedding dresses are beautiful choices.

Creating fun, colour or atmosphere in photos is a rising trend. Swirl your wedding colour through your pics, or flash a pop of colour through a natural backdrop. Playing with smoke grenades adds the perfect touch of interest.

And we can’t do a 2019 prediction without mentioning the Pantone colour of the year – living coral. Pretty, fresh and vibrant, this hue transfers from florals and fragrance to dresses and decor.
