Hello 2024! We could not be more excited to see the beginning of a fresh, new year. After so many years of uncertainty, we have a feeling 2024 is going to be a big one dedicated to love and celebration! The trends emerging for wedding aesthetics this year are some of our absolute favourites to date and we are so looking forward to seeing them come to life each in their own unique way! What truly sets these latest trends apart is their adaptability, making it effortlessly achievable to infuse your personal touch into your wedding festivities. Let’s explore our top three favourites so far!
1. The Old Money Aesthetic: Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Chic
In 2024, the Old Money Aesthetic is poised to make a grand entrance, elevating weddings to an unprecedented level of opulence. Think of this trend as the epitome of restrained black-tie glamour, set against the backdrop of private estates and exclusive venues.
The focal point of this aesthetic is quiet sophistication. White and light oak furniture pieces will create the base aesthetic with large scalloped garden umbrellas, classic bentwood chairs, French linen galore, vintage champagne coups and gilded mirror accents, reminiscent of a bygone era.
Bows will be heavily featured in this aesthetic tied onto glassware, welcome signs, drinks service bars and gowns! Bows are everywhere! Crystal chandeliers and ornate table settings will grace the venues to further enhance the ambiance.
A neutral palette reigns supreme in the Old Money Aesthetic with ivory, champagne, and subtle hints of silver creating an atmosphere of understated luxury. These hues form the perfect canvas for a celebration steeped in elegance.
Luxurious white blooms such as peonies, roses, and orchids will be the stars of the floral arrangements. Tall, dramatic centrepieces and cascading installations will add drama to the scene.
2. Pastel Garden Party: Whimsy and Romance Amongst Wildflowers
For couples seeking a softer, more whimsical touch, the Pastel Garden Party trend is the perfect choice. Picture a romantic soirée set in a lush garden adorned with an array of pastel hues and wildflowers.
Embrace the charm of oak furniture and white wooden elements to create a natural yet refined atmosphere. Rattan and wicker accents create a more relaxed feel paired with structured white market umbrellas, loose draped cheesecloth on signing tables, bars and table settings with pops of pastel napkins, signage and stationery, finished with delicate white parasols for your ceremony.
Pastels take centre stage in this colour palette. Soft pinks, dusty blues, sage greens, and lavender hues infuse the setting with a dreamy, fairytale quality. These colors blend harmoniously with the natural beauty of the outdoors and the organic oak and white furniture pieces.
Wildflowers, whimsical and untamed, steal the show. Bouquets and centrepieces feature a medley of blossoms in a spectrum of pastel shades. Think dahlias, peonies, and ranunculus, all arranged with an organic, garden-inspired feel with wicker baskets and unstructured vases and unique arrangements.
3. Vineyard Vibes: A refined, modern twist on the rustic aesthetic
The Vineyard trend for 2024 bridges the gap between contemporary aesthetics and rustic charm. It is the embodiment of sophistication infused with an earthy warmth, perfect for hinterland venues wineries or farm-to-table properties. Whilst the rustic look of old was focused on a mismatched and unstructured eclectic vibe. The rustic look in 2024 is more refined, elevated and minimal, allowing your chosen venue to shine.
Walnut timber will be your base furniture choice paired with natural linens, stone features and clean lines to create a sleek yet warm and inviting atmosphere. A minimalist approach to this design allows the natural beauty and texture of the materials to shine.
Opt for florals that seamlessly blend with the organic feel of this look. Moss, green Chrysanthemums and dahlias with elegant pops of delicate white florals, limes, grapes, pears and other fruits add a touch of elegance to the rustic surroundings.
As we embark on styling and planning weddings in 2024, these three remarkable trends invite couples to explore the diverse world of wedding design. Whether you're drawn to timeless opulence, whimsical romance, or a fusion of modern and rustic elements, rest assured that this year's wedding trends have something for every taste.
We are honored to be your guide on this enchanting journey, where love, style, and creativity intersect to create unforgettable memories. We're excited to witness your love stories come to life in your chosen settings. Cheers to a year filled with beauty, celebration, and boundless love!
