As wedding planners in New York City and beyond, we are caught up with and have our own “hot takes” on the latest modern, fresh, and trend-setting wedding details.
Don’t forget that while we love to predict these upcoming trends, you just do you! At the end of the day, that’s what your wedding day is truly about.
Read below for our top picks for the 2025 wedding scene.
Live Entertainment
This year, we expect to see wedding couples coming up with unique ways to entertain their guests, outside of music. One trend we can’t get over is live artists. Imagine your These beautiful sketches or watercolor paintings not only give your guests a break from the dance floor, but they serve as a keepsake to enjoy post-festivities!
Minimalist Fashion + Decor
Sorry, not sorry, but minimal wedding dresses have become a personal favorite. These effortlessly chic dresses give off a quiet confidence that we love. Fashion-forward yet elegant, we would love this trend to stick around. Not only is the minimalist trend taking over bridal fashion, but we expect to see a surge in understated decor such as bud vases, stripped-down tablescapes with candles only, petite bouquets, and the list goes on. Don’t forget—sometimes, less is more.
Personalized Stationery
A bold invitation suite sets the tone for your entire wedding weekend. Whether you add a personal note to your guests, a few designs related to you & your partner’s favorite things, or just extra color & unique fonts, we are here for iconic, colorful, and personalized wedding stationery. These are the details that your guests will remember.
Table Draping
Though dramatic draping is not brand new in 2025, we will start seeing it in abundance, specifically on tables. It adds bold texture and versatility to table designs, as well as a vintage flair that is also trending this year.
Unique Ceremony Layouts
Gone are the days where your guests can’t even get a decent view of you and your partner reading your vows! We are loving this trend of unique ceremony layouts. The options are endless, and allow for your ceremony to feel that much more intimate with your favorite people.
Chartreuse Accents
Chartreuse is a fresh, funky, and modern statement color, and we are happy it is making its way to the wedding industry. Mark our words, you are going to start seeing it more than you may even want to. Oh, and paired with lavender? Chef’s kiss.
Personalized Welcome Parties
It’s no surprise that we love an Italian wedding. But what we love even more is a welcome pizza party at an Italian villa to kick off your wedding weekend. In all seriousness, whether you are tying the knot in Italy or anywhere else, themed welcome parties with intentional design will be a huge hit in 2025.
Vintage Aesthetic
From wedding fashion to dramatic draping to cozy lighting & paper details, the vintage aesthetic is in. Wedding couples are drawing inspiration from romantic weddings of the past that have an elegant European feel.
Alternative Desserts
Though we love a classic wedding cake, we are beginning to see more & more alternative dessert options. Unique dessert bars or stations can add a bit more personality to your wedding reception, drawing from your favorite flavors or local bakeries. You can also choose desserts based on your culture or destination. Plus, let’s be honest, does anyone even like wedding cake?
Asymmetrical Table Designs
We noticed a few of these artistically designed dinner tables in 2024, and we believe they are here to stay in 2025. As long as they logistically make sense for staff and your guests, you can count us in on this trend! They add such a beautiful and unique design element to your reception.
