Wedding Trends for 2025: What’s In and What’s Out

Planning a wedding in 2025? Whether you're deep into the Pinterest scroll or just starting to explore your vibe, the 2025 wedding trends are here—and they’re stunning. As wedding planners who work with busy couples (yes, we see you juggling careers, brunches, and gym classes), we’re breaking down the latest wedding styles in a way that feels inspiring and doable.

Let’s talk about what’s making waves this year—and what’s gently phasing out. And remember: just because something isn’t “trending” doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

If you love it, it belongs in your day.

Trends are here to inspire, not define.

What’s In: The Wedding Trends We’re Loving for 2025

Elevated Simplicity is the New Luxe ✨

Minimalist doesn’t mean boring—it means intentional. 2025 couples are leaning into the “quiet luxury” aesthetic: rich textures, monochromatic color palettes, and statement florals that feel more like art than décor.

Obsessed with: Velvet napkins, layered neutrals, modern calligraphy menus, and large-scale arrangements with a sculptural vibe.

Bespoke Guest Experiences 💌

Your wedding isn’t just a party—it’s a story. Couples are curating immersive experiences that reflect who they are, from signature cocktails based on your star signs to scent bars where guests create custom perfumes.

Need ideas? Think on-site illustrators, gourmet espresso martini carts, or interactive escort card displays that double as favors.

Multi-Day Wedding Celebrations 🥂

Why limit the fun to one day? Think destination vibes without the passport: welcome dinners, recovery brunches, beach bonfires, or chic picnics with custom picnic baskets for guests.

Eco-Conscious Details That Don’t Compromise Style 💡

Luxury meets sustainability. Couples are loving reusable floral installations, upcycled fashion (yes, secondhand designer dresses are in), and rentals over purchases, or even thrifting—from tableware to candleholders.

Fresh idea: Offer edible favors made by local artisans or donate to a meaningful cause in your guests’ name.

Editorial Wedding Content 📸

Couples are saying yes to stylized storytelling. Think Vogue-meets-home-video: moody lighting, fashion-forward outfits, and video highlight reels that feel like mini films.

A rising trend we love? Hiring a dedicated wedding content creator who captures behind-the-scenes, candid, and aesthetic footage throughout the day—and delivers it within hours. That means you can relive your favorite moments (and post a sneak peek on socials) before the night’s even over or the next morning.

What’s Out: But Don’t Worry, It’s All Love

We’re not here to wedding-shame. If you love something, use it. Trends come and go—but timelessness is personal. That said, here are a few things we’re seeing less of in 2025:

One-Size-Fits-All Wedding Scripts 🚫

Today’s couples are rewriting the rules. It’s your day—skip what doesn’t serve you. Not into bouquet tosses? No problem. Want your dog as your flower pup? We’re in. Your wedding, your rules.

Select Color Palettes 🎨

Rust orange and dusty blue had their moment, but 2025 is ushering in bolder, fresher color stories: pistachio green, buttercream yellow, lavender haze, and espresso brown are trending now.

Reminder: Any color is the right color if it speaks to your love story.

One-Note Entertainment 🎵

One-dimensional entertainment is getting an upgrade. 2025 couples are saying “why not both?”—DJ x live violinist, anyone? We’re seeing multiple layers of entertainment: live artists, performance-style first dances, lion dancers. If it feels like a mini Coachella, you're on the right track.

Ready to Design a Wedding That Feels Like You?

If this list made you want to scream “yes, please!”—but also made your brain spin with logistics—we’ve got you. We believe your wedding should feel like you—just elevated, supported, and stress-free. That’s where we come in.

Love and Life,
