Wedding Trend Spotter: Romanticism Style

The Romantic style is one that has always been popular with weddings. The romanticism style usually incorporates soft colors, antique design, ornate curvy designs, floral headpieces and centerpieces, and a gentle overall feel. Here are a few examples of romantic-themed wedding style:

Besides soft, warm colors, many romantic-style weddings also employ a good deal of crystals on the centerpieces and around the reception venue, and antique touches such as old-fashioned photo frames that can hold photos of the bride and groom and their friends and family.

Another unique trend that is popping up all over wedding blogs and Pinterest profiles is chalkboards as a decor or art piece. On the whole, chalk blackboards can be a great medium for sentiments, quotes, menu signs, greetings, and special messages for almost any event (not just weddings).

Contemporary Weddings: A Style Trend That’s Here to Stay

The contemporary design movement has made its way into weddings, where simple, clean lines create a visually stunning event that makes an impact. Many contemporary weddings also bring about images of dramatic lighting and a minimalist feel:

Besides the clean lines and modern feel, you’ll also notice that vibrant patterns and delicate, bright flowers are also common in contemporary weddings.

Whimsical Outdoor Fall Wedding Ideas

Although they are not as common as spring weddings, fall weddings continue to be popular for people that are looking to have an outdoor wedding set to the beautiful background of changing leaves as the weather gets cooler.

If you live in a more temperate area of the U.S., having an outdoor fall wedding can be a great way to celebrate your union and the season.

Try to incorporate the fall colors and flowers (such as mums) that commemorate the season. Other fall favorites like pumpkins, straw bales and logs create a unique setting.

Finally, for utensils and dishes, be sure to use china and silverware (or heavy plastic-ware) so they don’t blow away in the wind. For drinking glasses, personalized mason jars are an affordable option and they provide a rustic touch to your fall wedding reception:

A Unity Sand Ceremony Set Makes Your Wedding Memorable

The unity sand ceremony is an increasingly popular, non-traditional ritual that is a visual representation of two individuals, or about to be blended family, coming together as one. During the ceremony, the bride and the groom alternate pouring different colored sand from pouring jars into a larger container in order to symbolize their union. Oftentimes, this service takes place in the middle of the wedding ceremony, with the officiant saying a blessing or prayer. Music may also be playing.

In addition to providing an important symbol of the couples’ love, unity sand ceremony sets make great keepsakes for the beginning of a new marriage. To make it even more meaningful, you may personalize the unity container to make it a memento you will keep for a lifetime. To learn more about the unity sand ritual, please visit HowStuffWorks.

Record Your Memories with a Guest Book and Pen Set

A guest book and pen set is one of the best ways you can keep track of all the guests that were at your wedding, other special event, or location, such as a bed & breakfast. Recording handwritten, unique entries from your guests as they arrive is one of the most memorable ways to relive the event.

Our website offers many guest book and pen set options, including our popular rustic romance set, which has been a hit at outdoor weddings and events with a pastoral theme:
