The buzz words of the wedding season are bows,
ribbons and lace. No, you don't need to look like an 80's throwback but
if you want to keep up with modern trends, somewhere in your plans you
must include ribbons and lace!
Designer wedding dresses have been paraded up and
down the catwalk absolutely dripping with ribbons. Cakes, stationery
and footwear can also be found adorned with bows and lace.
A great way to use ribbons successfully is to
incorporate them in your bouquet and other floral decorations, or in
your wedding hairstyle.
Colours: Blues will still be strong but will
be matched more often with metallics such as gold, silver, grey and
platinum. The brown/blue and pink/brown combinations will be “so
last year”, by next year! The hottest colour for next
season is purple, so expect to see everything ranging from pale
lavender to deep aubergine. Bold jewel tone colours will also be hot as
brides seek bolder statements with stronger wedding colours, including
rich purples, golds, oranges, and reds.
