Moodboard for Wedding Trends 2017

Chevrons are coming back into fashion and offering a twist to your traditional wedding decor. You can get them in any colour and they can be used absolutely everywhere. Go for a festival wedding with chevron table runners to wow your guests. Why not try Chevron themed stationery invites to do something different? Set your whole theme as Chevron and have it all! Pinterest is great for inspiration if you are thinking about Chevron patterns for your wedding decor.
Floral Antlers are popular with boho style weddings. The bohemian trend is becoming increasingly popular with so many couples requesting this theme for their wedding. The boho style antlers bring something different to your wedding and offer a slight rustic feel to put a twist on things. The boho style antlers can be used with flowers to create a table centerpiece. You can also use these in any outdoor areas of your venue. Whether it is a summer wedding with bright florals or a winter wedding with white roses, these will look amazing.
Artisan Wedding Cakes are my absolute favourite! This wedding cake in particular was created by Harriot from Jemima Cakes. All her cakes are specially made with butter icing that is wrapped tight to give the artisan effect. All hand made of course and such details that goes into every single one of her cakes. Whether you have a boho, vintage or festival wedding, these artisan wedding cakes will suit any theme.
The Boho Geometric Candle Holders are becoming the most common wedding trend for 2017. Whilst that can be tricky to get hold of, ask your wedding planner to help source these to keep up with the trends. These modern candle holders come in golds, silvers and black. Fill them with flowers or candles, the choices are endless. Personally, I like to place them on steps with candles inside and a lovely foliage setting beside them as seen in the photo above. Ask your florist to help you plan this if you haven’t already got your sussex wedding planner.
Gold Cutlery is amazing, it looks wonderful and it is up there with the top 2017 trends. Many crockery companies are starting to source these and get these in for wedding couples. I have seen a lot of styled shoots for 2017 using the gold cutlery option, and I have to say, they just look the part. We are all bored of the plain silver cutlery, lets bring something different to your styled wedding! That’s why you have a wedding planner after all, right?
