Spring Wedding Trends for 2014
Spring 2014 is going to see some of the most unusual colors and trends grace the wedding décor and bridal party. Here's a peek at some of the hottest trends for the perfect spring wedding.
Here's a look at the colors that are going to be the rage in the wedding scene, this spring.
It only makes sense to begin with the Color of the Year, doesn't it? We love the richness of radiant orchid. It can up the luxury quotient of a wedding in a jiffy!
Dazzling blue is the Pantone Spring Color for 2014. Try to incorporate not just hints, but oodles of this electrifying color in your wedding for that glamorous appeal.
Here's another bright color to celebrate the flavor of spring. Orange in its most vibrant shade, when coupled with a classic neutral like white can liven up a wedding like nobody's business.
Some say sunny yellow, some say yolk yellow. We say no matter what you call it, there's no way you canNOT use a color as fun and inviting as freesia in your wedding.
With subtle hints of violet and not-so-subtle hints of lavender, this color is stealing many a bride's heart. It has just the right amount of elegance and punch.
If you thought it was impossible to use a color as dull as gray in a wedding, draw some inspiration from the images here. They're chic and graceful, much like the bride you'll be.
Not many would think a wedding can pull off a color as cheerless as sand. But look how beautifully it's proven all of them (alright, us) wrong.
One of the classic favorites when it comes to selecting a neutral that isn't too dry and lusterless is a shade of mint. We love how harmoniously everything just falls into place here.
This dull version of blue has found its calling this spring. It's a smack in the face for those who considered it a color fit only for baby showers. Just look how pretty!
Here Comes the Bride
The sweetheart neckline is back and so are vintage-style fits. As for other bridal trends this spring, they are a mix of classic modesty and modern chicness. From the layered wonders by Amsale to the sleek overlays by Carolina Herrera, there's so much variety for the spring bride that she's going to be spoiled for choice.
Here are our versions of what a spring bride ought to wear.
This year, it's all about the delicate detail on your dress. Whether it's sequins, lace, rhinestones, or beads, your dress isn't complete unless it's encrusted with some sparkle or trim.
Style Cue: Kenneth Pool
While most brides would want their dresses to have a long and luxurious train, a practical bride can take inspiration from this sleek number for a modern and voguish look.
Style Cue: Monique Lhuillier
Lace is back! And how! A majority of designers and houses incorporated lace into their spring bridal wear this year. But the most common trend, even within the trend, was lace sleeves.
Style Cue: Oscar de la Renta
While most past trends have concentrated on the top and skirt of the wedding dress, this year, the back of the dress gets to celebrate its time in the limelight!
Style Cue: Peter Langner
If you thought layered dresses could only make you look like a puffy princess, think again. This spring, flowy, sheer layers are all the rage.
Style Cue: Amsale
It's the return of the retro. Give yourself a pin-up look with a short, above-the-knee dress that lets you flaunt those gorgeous peep-toes in style!
Style Cue: Marchesa
If there's one designer who can take something as somber as black and turn it into a wedding trend (of all things), it's Vera Wang. Watch out for her black-splashed dresses.
