Year after year, the concept and strategies involved in planning events progresses. It is an ever-changing industry, and as we advance as a society, we often change the image we have for our dream wedding. To help make your dream a reality for a wedding in the City of Brotherly Love, we entrust the help of a distinguished company for event planning in Philadelphia. As we turn over the calendars, what trends will present themselves in wedding reception and styles throughout 2015?
Social Media Engagement: The bride and groom are going social, and so is the rest of their party. Continuing the trend from previous years, we’re seeing a lot of hashtags being created so you can always see the fun times your guests had at the wedding. From Facebook to Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest, it’s an entertaining way for your guests to get involved and engage in the atmosphere. There are programs like Storify that curate the photos your guests take, so you can pick the best ones and print them out for your wedding album!
Elegant, Rustic Chic: Every couple is aiming to be unique in their reception and provide an enjoyable atmosphere with a certain elegance to the décor. It’s all about quality now. Burlap is out and couples are choosing fabric with a little more flair. Linens are shining and sparkly, while chandeliers light up the rooms.
Lofts: Receptions are steering away from the traditional scene in a restaurant or banquet hall. They’re transitioning to a more flashy setting like museums, galleries, and lofts. Barns had the trend in recent years, but being stuck on a farm is not everyone’s idea of a dream wedding. Utilize a planner to find the perfect loft that meets your budget and style. The rentals are expensive, but the ambiance that it offers will be memorable and unique for all guests.
Lace: Brides are returning to the classic look of a lace dress. Lace sleeves, lace bolero jackets, and a glamorous dress that stands out. Plus, with the popularity of Downton Abbey and the appeal of Princess Kate, vintage lace is making an appearance in 2015’s wedding décor. It’s the style and material that has become the fabric of choice for clothing, tablecloths, and other areas of the wedding.
