Wedding cakes will go big and bold with bakers ready to experiment with unexpected shapes and varying sized tiers.

More focus on rentals
From fine table linens to lounge furniture, there are multiple ways to enhance a wedding venue with rentals. 2019 is all about rent more, and the major focus will be linens and lighting. Be it chair covers, table linens, napkins, or runners, couples will rent everything that they need to be a perfect host. In addition, uplighting will observe an upgrade with more personalized alternatives like basket lanterns, colored taper candles, and neon installations.
Offbeat floral components
2019 wedding season will observe unexpected floral add-ins, like pampas grass and wheat as an alternative to flowers. Grasses will be used to add a chic, unfussy, and multiple layers of depth to the design. They will also be employed to highlight the aisle, create a moody vibe at after party or elevate any element in the wedding ceremony. Besides, florals will be displayed in unique, innovative ways, like from the ceiling, covering archways, as a part of the furniture.
More clarifying dress code
Dress code will be conveyed in simplified terms rather than confusing guests with ‘festive beach casual’ or ‘boho chic.’ It is often very vague in meaning and leaves too much room for interpretation. More couples are opting to keep in simple with popular classic terms, like ‘white tie,’ ‘cocktail dress,’ ‘tuxedo.’ Couples are also sending creative guides, hand-drawn illustrations and color palettes to help guests figure out what to wear.
Trends aside, make choices that reflect your personality and choose what you love so that you can cherish the moments forever.
