We are IN LOVE with this 4-tier lemon olive oil cake with lavender Swiss meringue buttercream and lemon curd designed by bakery From Lucie in NYC. We are also seeing seasonal fruit options, sheet cakes are making a comeback and sculpted cakes!
Drinks! Taste is everything and “since more and more individuals are taking an interest in their health and wellbeing, zero-proof cocktails—beverages made without alcohol—will become a staple at weddings in 2024. Plus, modern couples are also on the lookout to incorporate more variety and choice into their nuptials, which paves the way for mocktails to shine.” – Brides

The colour palette is often a very debated topic in the wedding planning process – do you stay with tried, tested and long lasting colour schemes or do you go bold with trending designs. If you are looking for trending here’s what has Wedluxe.com has to say, “Merlot & Co – Whether it’s called Merlot, burgundy, black cherry, or oxblood, trust us when we say that this rich, deep hue will reign supreme in 2024 because it’s been popping up on couture runways to red carpets. We LOVE this color paired with sky blue for a double dose of trending hues!”

Say Cheese! “Today’s wedding photographers are leaning into docu-style portraiture, capturing candid moments alongside posed pictures. These realistic shots capture the energy of the moment just as much as the moment itself. To-be-weds are asking their guests to moonlight as paparazzi too, arming them with disposable and Polaroid cameras so that your loved ones will snap throughout the day. The result is a wide variety of imagery allowing you to relive your wedding day through multiple lenses.” – Theknot.com

Can’t choose just one look, not to worry, we are seeing heavy trends to having 2nd and even 3rd looks. “Brides love to escape their wedding gown in favor of an eye-catching second look. But how about a third? We’re seeing brides take on a second outfit change, often during key transition times, such as after cocktail hour and before the after party,” says Coyne. This is the time to break out your dramatic sequined caftan that comes before the late-night mini.” – Martha Stewart Weddings

Grooms, “This year, there will be a lot of classic, retro and vintage themes in the weddings, so it’s not uncommon to have vintage wedding suits among the groomsmen’s favourite choices. They can be found in vintage stores, but it should be taken into account that they will definitely have to be brought to the dry cleaner and then tailored to restore them to perfect condition.” – Bridelifestyle.com
