Okay guys — we’re spilling the tea on which 2018 trends we’re dying to say “sayonara” to in 2019! Not that we didn’t love them while they were hot, but let’s just say they’ve had their time in the spotlight and we’re ready for some fresh, new trends to take center stage in the new year. We asked a few of our favorite vendors in the industry to give us their opinion on which 2018 trends they’re hoping won’t carry over into 2019 and they had some pretty great responses. Here’s the scoop…
This is without a doubt the number one most mentioned trend that wedding pro’s wish would go away in 2019. Don’t get us wrong – the muted tones we’ve seen in so many beautiful weddings are GORG… we’re just exciting to see brides have a little fun with colors in 2019 and dare to be bold! But if that’s just not your style, consider us your most devoted blush fans
Let’s be real, marble is amazing… but sometimes it can be a bit overpowering when used too heavily in the overall decor. We love the idea of keeping marble around for the long run, but maybe just used in small elements that can still make a big statement.
Listen up, ladies! You are all so naturally beautiful and don’t need all that Krazy Kardashian contour on your wedding day.
Take it from the experts at Face Time Beauty, “A trend we couldn’t quite get on board with this year was the heavy contouring. We love to elevate the amazing features that brides already have to keep them looking like themselves. A little contour on the nose and on the cheeks is perfect, but we like to keep it light and natural.”
Pinterest is one of our all time favorite ways to get inspired and see what’s trending in the wedding world. But in 2019, Elizabeth from East Made Event Company would love to see brides take that inspiration and make it their own entirely!
Here’s what she had to say, “We LOVE Pinterest for its mood board sourcing and inspiration capabilities, but it’s so easy for brides to ask their vendors to exactly replicate a photo they’ve seen before. By allowing your creative team a bit of flexibility in their design process, they’ll be able to create something even more personalized and unique to your day.”
“Donut walls have had their time in the spotlight” says Heather & Mackenzie from Amorology Weddings, “but we are excited about some new fun ways to combine food and art installations. We think more couples will be looking to “tie the knot” with pretzel bars this year!”
Um, yes please.. we’re SO on board with this pretzel bar concept – 2019, we’re ready for ya!
