It’s one of the most exciting times of the calendar year - Wedding Season. Couples across the nation are eagerly awaiting the unveiling of the latest wedding trends destined to sweep through the bridal landscape. With each passing year, the world of weddings undergoes subtle yet significant shifts, from the choice of decor to the culinary delights served on the big day, not to mention the ever-evolving styles of bridal attire. In the face of such constant evolution, it's natural to wonder how you can stay ahead of the curve and anticipate what lies ahead. We're here to offer guidance and insight from bridal experts.
Sustainability remains a prominent theme, transcending mere trend status to become a full-fledged movement. According to Wedding Venues, couples are embracing a heightened awareness of the environmental impact of their wedding, emphasising measures to curb waste, eschew single-use items and lessen carbon footprints. Moreover, couples are adopting practices of reusability and recycling, opting to rent decor rather than purchase, repurposing floral arrangements throughout the event, borrowing sentimental items from loved ones, and favouring recycled or recyclable paper products whenever feasible.
Muted and soft colour schemes have dominated the wedding scene, but now we're excited to embrace a shift towards vivid, striking hues and vibrant palettes! And according to One Fab Day, there's a resurgence of interest in bold, maximalist aesthetics, evident in couples' attire, stationery choices, cake designs, floral arrangements, and beyond. The spectrum of possibilities is vast, ranging from warm, earthy tones to vibrant colour-block combinations, from monochrome with bold splashes of colour to daring clashes of hues. These trends are among our favourites for weddings in 2024.
Curious about where this colourful journey will lead us? According to colour trend forecasts by Pantone, expect to see shades like Peach Fuzz, bright Horizon Blue, exotic Spicy Mustard, vibrant Sun Orange, fresh Bistro Green, fiery Fiesta Red, and bold Strong Blue making waves in spring and summer 2024.
From grand, attention-grabbing bows adorning wedding gowns and extravagant bow decorations topping cakes to finer, more understated ribbon embellishments seen on stationery and table arrangements, elegant bows remain a prominent trend for weddings in 2024 according to One Fab Day. We’re excited to see how our customers use our range of ribbons to accessorise wedding hampers, bridal party hampers and wedding favours. We have hundreds of ribbons, including themed designs, to choose from. So, regardless of the theme, Foldabox’s vast ribbon collection won’t disappoint.
Vogue UK highlighted how floral motifs are poised to steal the spotlight this year. Anticipate seeing blossoms delicately strewn across veils, trailing along trains, and adorning dresses with a whimsical touch. "Embellishments hold the power to exude delicacy and femininity, or make a bold, fashion-forward statement," notes Halfpenny. "Nature serves as a profound inspiration, evident in our collection's abundance of floral elements. Our handcrafted silk organza flowers, meticulously fashioned from fabric offcuts, are emblematic of our commitment to sustainability and beauty.” Do you love florals as much as we do? Then our floral and botanical themed decorative side panels are just for you.
