Summer equals a brand new wedding season and we’re here to inform you of some essential trends that you might need to take note of, especially if you’re a bride-to-be! All year we’ve seen weird and wonderful new bridal styles take over social media and wedding magazines. The trouble is that with so many options coming about, it’s hard to decide what you want, right? Well, it’s a lot more simple than you think. Stick to these summer wedding tips and you’ll be all set.

The vintage look and feel will never get old because it’s a timeless classic. Going the rustic route is perfect, just make sure to add elegant, modern touches to add extra glam. Old teapots, floral print tins, dried flowers and lace are great universal options. Tie in that much-needed lavish feeling, by adding diamantes or crystals to statement pieces. You could even opt for gorgeous embellished wedding shoes so that you look the part too.

It’s been flaunted on runways all year and now it’s time to get wedding ready too! The off-the-shoulder gown is classic yet contemporary. If you’re not keen to close up the shoulder and neck area, then this style could be just for you.

The metallic aesthetic may seem rather ‘wild’ for a wedding, however it could actually work out well – if you do it right! Sequinned bridesmaid gowns will make for gorgeous photography, whilst adding to the overall look of the wedding party – not to mention the fact that it’ll make the decor look cool too. Opting for shiny metallic vases and tiffany chairs is also a good idea.

Embracing nature is actually quite cost effective when it comes to weddings that fall in the warmer months. Now is the time to take advantage of gorgeous gardens and luscious forest areas. These make for stunning wedding venues.
