This year will see more Eco Friendly weddings. Quite right too, we really should aim to be as green as possible. You can incorporate this into your wedding day in the form of recycled stationery, reusable centre pieces, perhaps potted plants or herbs. This is a lovely idea and your guests can take them home at the end of the evening. Organic foods is another way and sourcing food locally is a great idea. A web site you can try which specialises in this area is Eco Weddings.

Intimate and Homely

We will see smaller more intimate weddings. At the moment the financial climate  is focusing many couples attention on their budget. One of the best ways to cut your costs is to reduce the number of people you invite to the wedding. Its not just the food, an extra 10 people means, more invites, more centre pieces, favours etc. the cost goes up considerably. Couples will be more discerning who they invite, of course this means that your very best friends and close relatives will be present to share you special day and will prove for a very special and intimate atmosphere. We may very well see more weddings being held at home, perhaps having a Marquee in the garden. As we said yesterday DIY weddings are on the up and this is the perfect example.

Wedding Colours

According to my research the very popular chocolate colour we have seen over the last few years is out and bold vibrant colours are a hot trend for 2010, orange, purple, pink, gold and turquoise are hot to trot. The theme is monochromatic with various shades of the same colour.

Well now you know whats hot for 2010. But a word of caution we still advocate that you think about what you really want and whilst you want to be on trend don’t let the pressures of the wedding industry push you into spending more than you want to. As we always say Prioritise! Prioritise! Prioritise! If you want some help to keep you on track why not give us a call. We guarantee to give you the best advice and inspiration!! to help plan the wedding you want and not what trend dictates.

Until next time, happy planning.
