HOT TRENDS- A vintage year...
Royal wedding inspirations


Royal and vintage are without a doubt the buzz words for weddings this year.

So what sums up a vintage themed wedding? Color wise, we are seeing a lot of cream and ivory incorporated with soft shades of pink and champagne. Green is also a popular choice for a natural and pretty accent. We are also seeing lots of purple, a stunning contrast from the muted shades. Purple is a color that will continue to be very popular over the next couple of years. The shades range from soft lavenders to bold aubergines. So to sum up this years popular colors, we will continue to see lots of pastel shades and natural greens with accents and splashes of purple.
The wedding industry is looking forward to the extraodinary wedding of Prince William to Kate Middleton later this month. This truly Royal wedding will be setting new styles and trends for years to come. Kate has very classic and vintage style. It has been presumed that Kate's engagement ring, the heirloom sapphire that once graced Princess Diana's finger, will inspire the color palette for her wedding. Blue seems to be a favorite color of the future princess, as she was radiant in a royal blue dress when the couple's engagement was announced. A beautiful vintage look can be created with that gorgeous sapphire color paired with pastel tones to add softness. No doubt that this spring celebration will prompt many bride's and groom's to add a royal, vintage touch to their wedding. Look for the grand flowers and decor on April 29th in Westminster Abbey!

Hey, did you know that Kate Middleton comes from a family who formerly owned a party supply and decor business? It's true! This makes it a good bet that many of the decorative elements from Kate and William's wedding will create trend-setting elements for years to come!
