Every element comes together harmoniously and will leave a lasting impression!
The 2023 wedding season is already upon us, and couples are ready to dive into planning the details of their big day! Deciding which décor elements to incorporate into your wedding can be one of the most changeling tasks. Your décor should transform your wedding day by creating an atmosphere to set the mood to say “I do!” We have compiled 2023 wedding décor trends that will stun your guests.
Cafe Lighting
Get creative when it comes to cafe lighting! It’s not just for your outdoor patio! Bring the lighting inside! We promise it’s going to look stunning in your reception space. Especially if your venue has high ceilings, it will add a soft, elegant, and romantic feel. Soft cafe lights will give your reception space the moody, warm touch that will truly elevate your big night!
Texture
One trend we will see a lot more of in 2023 is texture! Textures can be incorporated in many different ways, from the invites to the ceremony altar and your reception tables. Mixing and matching different materials will create some seriously unforgettable look that are anything but boring. For example, look how stunning velvet can be when incorporated into a wedding!
Ceiling Drapery
A classy yet elegant way to add the “Wow!” factor to your reception is gorgeous drapery! Dressing the room with fabric will make your setting feel luxe and upscale, yet warm and inviting. Ceiling drapery is one of the best ways to turn your venue from beautiful to unforgettable!
Private Last Dance
In 2023 we’re kicking guests out to enjoy the final song with a private dance. That’s right, everyone is asked to leave except for the photographer so the two of you can have a moment by yourself to take in the magic of the day.
Hanging Installations
This ceiling décor trend we adore! There are many ways to pull this off, such as chandeliers, greenery, lightbulbs, or flowers. Give your VIP table the perfect aerial accent, adorn your dance floor with statement light fixtures, or light up your entire venue! Empty spaces in key areas are perfect for adding that extra spark of color or lighting.
We’ve Got It Covered! We know that it can be fun to plan your wedding and want to do everything yourself. However, we think there are a few things you should leave up to your expert vendors to rest assured that your wedding will look spectacular!
Draping-
Whether it be on the ceiling, on your seats or on your arch. Let us take care of your draping needs. We are experts when it comes to draping! You place the surrounding decor and viola! Stunning ceremony site!
Floor length linens really transform a room from banquet hall to wedding hall extraordinaire. Let us provide and place your linens so that all you have to do is put on your centerpiece.
Let us dress your chairs as well. Setting up 200 chair covers and sashes can take a lot of time. Don’t make your family do this work. They want to enjoy the day just as much as you. Plus we have perfected the art of tying a bow!
Your family friend might take photos on the side, but we suggest hiring a professional. Photos last a lifetime and you want to make sure they turn out amazing! After all, photos are what you put out to display for everyone to see.
Hiring a day of coordinator is one of the biggest stress relievers. It provides you to spend more time with your loved ones as well as giving your guests the chance to spend time with each other. Don’t stress over making decisions on your wedding day, let a coordinator do that for you!
This is all you!! We like to leave it to your imagination and personality to really make the space your own. Find the little nooks and crannies in your venue that you would like to put any pictures, candles, love signs, wedding favors and more!
Involving your family and friends can often make your wedding experience more stressful if something does not turn out the way you had envisioned. So, hire professionals! It’s what we do…all the time. You can trust that it will turn out beautiful, all while spending those special moments with your guests.
There are so many details to remember and plan and discuss about your wedding day. So, what are those little details that often get overlooked? Well, you have come to the right place! We have created a list of things just for you that we find are the most overlooked.
Do you have one? It’s not only rain you have to worry about, heat and wind can also play a big factor in outdoor weddings. Backup plans are a must! BUT! It’s usually not this detail that gets overlooked... It’s what comes next. Have you communicated this backup plan to your vendors and helpers? If not, make sure they know where things are to be placed if anything changes. Communication to your vendors is one of the biggest overlooked detail in wedding planning.
Most people plan the food for dinner, but forget about breakfast and lunch! Plan to bring plenty of food AND WATER for you and your wedding party. Tip: Have water bottles easily accessible because more people are likely to grab them and stay hydrated!
Accessories/Wedding dress
Don’t let time get away from you during your engagement season. Alterations typically need to be scheduled two months prior to your wedding day. During this time you can look for the perfect accessories so that you can try everything on once your dress has been altered to make sure it is everything you had envisioned.
Do you have a wedding planner? A venue coordinator? A go-to? Questions always come up and you will not want to be bothered while you are getting ready and preparing for your special day. It is important to have someone in charge of questions and concerns so you don’t have to. It is your wedding day, relax and let someone else make the decisions for you!
Numbers
People are hard to plan on. You just never know if Aunt Barb or Uncle Larry are going to show up unexpected. Plan on an extra 10-20 chairs at your ceremony. Your guests will most likely leave seats open in between, which can then cause issues for latecomers. If you have chair decor, make sure you account for those extra chairs as well. No one likes mismatching or uncovered chairs in photos. Tip: Factor yourself and your vendors into your guest count when ordering chairs and food.
Hustle and Bustle. That is what your wedding day consists of (along with laughter, joy, love, and happiness of course). Wedding plans are usually made up until the event begins, but have you thought about when the event is over? Do you have a way for you and your spouse to get to your hotel? Does your wedding party have a ride from the venue to the hotel?
Lighting
The evening will come and you will want the space to match your mood. Depending on your venue, make sure that you can dim the lights or add supplement lighting like twinkle lights or cafe lights to keep the wedding mood romantic all night long.
Communicate with your vendors and your go-to about the cleanup process. Are you responsible for returning rented items? Do you have someone assigned for cleanup duty? It is crucial that items are counted and taken care of properly to avoid any damaged/missing item fees. No one likes the after-wedding charges, so assign someone to take on this job, and you will have nothing to worry about. Other things that might get overlooked include the collecting of gifts, personal items, your dress and or bouquet.
