When you are planning a wedding, you may or may not already have a picture painted in your head of your perfect day. Most couples will use wedding limousine services when planning for this momentous occasion. The style, overall theme, and colors are all exciting aspects of the wedding. But as exciting a time this is, it’s also a challenging time. With so many decisions to make, turning towards trends for 2018 can help inspire your choices..
1. Transportation – limousines
Limousines remain a top trend for 2018 with a limo service in NYC being both a stylish and practical way to get to your big day. The black limousine is a long-time classic for a reason; it never goes out of style! Delux also offers white limousines which might better suit your wedding style. Our limousines are an ideal way to arrive at your wedding feeling relaxed. The interiors are all about your comfort. There are seats for up to 8 passengers with the larger of the seating area being beneath adjustable fiber optic lighting. Positioned in front of a flat screen television you can relax and avoid any pre-wedding nerves. It comes equipped with a multi-level bar, and refreshments too.
A trend that never seems to go away is to decorate the wedding limo with ribbons and flowers. A simple ribbon with flowers at the central point of the decoration is a tasteful statement. But brides and grooms are becoming more open to expressing their personal taste, and heart shaped flower arrangements make for a beautiful addition to your wedding car. Small bouquets of flowers attached to the car door handles look lovely as your photographer snaps the photos.
2. Smaller bridal party
When deciding on the bridal party, bigger isn’t always better, and a hot trend for 2018 is to keep the wedding party to a minimum. It means one or two bridesmaids, a best man, and an usher. It is a move away from so many bridesmaids, ushers and other people involved in the wedding. Not only does it make for a more intimate affair, but it also helps to keep within your set budget.
3. The Venue – industrial and unique
Last year, industrial spaces were a hot trend for the wedding venues. These might not seem the most romantic, but they are a blank canvas where the couple can easily imprint their style and personality. And this is a good trend for brides living around the New York area as there are lots of industrial spaces perfect for the event.
A hotel, vineyard, restaurant, these have a pre-set style and look to them. But an industrial space with little interior design allows you to create a unique setting for your wedding. It might mean filling it with candles and twinkling lights. Perhaps flower arrangements in your accent color against a neutral background that allows features to stand out. The options are unlimited.
4. The Theme – natural touches
For many years, the idea of bringing in a bit of nature has been a popular wedding theme. Living bars and plant arches are perfect examples of how a couple can show their commitment to each other in a simple natural setting. These sculptural creations use fresh cut plants and flowers, and even exotic potted plants, to bring the outdoors in. Lining the aisle with real plants is another idea. There are lots of subtle ways to use this trend from table centerpieces to accessories for the bride and bridesmaids.
5. The Reception – the after party
The traditional arrangement of a marriage ceremony, followed by a reception, now has a third element – the after party. While the reception may be a more formal event with speeches, a meal, dancing and photo shoots, the after party is all about connecting with friends and family in a more relaxed setting. This is yet another opportunity to show your style, slipping into something more casual. From elegant evening dresses to khakis to Bermuda shorts – it will be your statement. What a lovely opportunity for guests and the wedding party to catch up with each other. Most brides and grooms will agree that their wedding day flies by at lightning speed, so a post-reception celebration gives you a chance to extend the day and enjoy the moment with your guests.
6. Accessories– laser cuts and translucent touches
The use of laser cut accessories continues to grow into 2018 – those living bars are a good example where laser cut wood fronts hold back real plants or cut foliage. Laser cut linens, and other touches are a favorite when creating patterns on the table. Also, the use of translucent touches such as sheer tents, floor to ceiling windows and Lucite invitations. Even clear plastic chairs at the bar and clear topped tables beside sofas all add to this trend, allowing maximum light to move through the room.
7. Colors – metallic
The trend of using metallic colors for accessories, remains firm in 2018. Rose gold was last year’s hottest color trend and this year copper has joined it. Metallic accents also work well if you are going to an industrial style venue as there are often metal functional elements on show around these spaces.
