Rose Gold is still hot for 2016, but a light, ethereal silver is also in, as is a rich gold and a deep bronze. Basically, metallic accessories are still hot. Think metallic, embellished shoes and accessories, wedding cake toppers, embossed invitations, and rose gold makeup palettes.

It’s awesome because using more green in your bouquet is great for maximizing your budget. Non-floral bouquets are still in, so think of using paper flowers or crafting your own fabric flowers. These two bouquets are found on Elizabeth Anne Designs

Clean Up Your Reception

Keep it clean, keep it eco-friendly – you can even do both. Finding ways to go green for your wedding reception is a great way to show your commitment to the environment (well-timed, thanks to the summit in Paris) and a clean food menu is perfect for your 2016 wedding reception.

Get Color Happy

The “It” Dress

In 2016, many brides are thinking they’ll walk down the aisle in a tea-length dress or wedding gown. Think romantic and vintage touches like floral appliques and lace overlays. Imagine walking the down the aisle looking demure and beautiful like Kate Middleton, but then discarding your lace for an avant-garde strapless look for dancing the night away!
