Wedding trends are constantly evolving, and to have a truly magical experience and dreamy photos to drool over, you need to know what’s in and what’s not.
Here are some of the latest creative and fun wedding trends for this year.
Edible food displays
More couples are turning food into art using edible displays at their weddings. In this case though, the camera eats first.
It's all about innovative eats and personalised menus that reflect the couple's creativity - even pizza bouquets are a thing now.
However, according to the Pinterest trend forecast, doughnut décor remains popular.
Smoke bombs
Who doesn’t want a massive cloud of colourful smoke in the air on their big day?
Coloured smoke bombs are showing no sign of slowing down as a wedding photography trend.
According to Pinterest wedding trends, searches for smoke bomb photography are up by 436 percent.

They are popping up in wedding snapshots all around the world, and we totally get the obsession.
Neon wedding signs
There is something about neon signs that just screams “take a picture”. There’s no wonder people are turning to illuminated neon love hearts, and couple’s names in cursive lettering turned into glowing neon signs.
They have an aesthetic appeal and we think that’s the reason their search on Pinterest is up by 281 percent. They are seriously chic and dreamy – for absolute romantics.
Unconventional bridal style
This year, we might be seeing a number of brides ditching tradition and going for more leg-bearing creations or better yet, wedding dresses with pockets.

And then we saw what could be the world’s first wedding inspired swimsuit from the haute couture spring 2019 runway. Would you get married in this glittering swimsuit?

Go big wedding cakes
