TOP TRENDS 2014
MATCHY-MATCHY IS OUT-OUT
Personalizing your wedding has always
been the goal--of course--Brides are now
mixing the old with the new; classic with
outrageous! Think “Enchanted meets Steam
Punk” or “Gatsby meets Madonna” for a
truly amazing and unique day.
FORMAL IS BACK! Last year’s rustic is
still going strong but it is going to be
outshined by glam-glam-glam. Prepare for
receptions awash in black and white, gold
accents, Downton-esque table settings, and
elegance at every turn. If you don’t have
Lord Grantham’s budget, bulk buy white or
color-pop ostrich feathers for centerpieces
to give the room an over-the-top feel.
GUESTS COME TO SEE YOU…SO LET THEM!
Many couples are exchanging their vows
facing the guests, rather than with their
backs to them. It is a moving way for family
and friends to really share in the personal
commitment being made rather than
focusing on the officiant.
ALL IS NOT GOLD THAT GLITTERS
Sometimes it’s sinfully delicious! Gold will
be showing up in fashion, décor, and of
course, cakes. Consider gold floral designs
for the topper, or baroque edges and accents.
Make a bold statement with all-over gold
fondant and a vibrant pop of violet or pink
for your topper.
Blue represents depth and stability, a
perfect metaphor for your wedding.

BLUE-RIBBON WEDDING Blue has always
represented depth and stability--a perfect
metaphor for your nuptials and one of
the major color shifts this year. Pantone
is seeing Monaco Blue, which will make
your groom happy; blend with mid-tones
of aqua, teal, peacock, or turquoise. If you
really want to light up your theme, use an
opposing color; barely-there yellow, for
instance, for accents.

FASHION FORWARD? THINK RETRO.
Vintage will still be popular in 2014 but
start thinking “extreme” embellishment
and high-tech. Check out the new lasercut
laces, enabling the designer to create
precision designs on all types of fabric.
Glam, glam, glam—receptions are
awash with gold and feathers!
Beautiful laser cut laces add new
dimension and design to wedding
fabrics.
