Grab Inspiration From Instagram and Create Memorable Wedding

A wedding to remember. That is what all of us are striving for, but at times it seems as mission impossible. Though wedding planning is an exhausting process, you can save some effort by finding inspiration online. Particularly Instagram is where you can find the latest and most varied trends. Everyone from wedding planners to influencers and creative individuals are posting their ideas online and you should make most of it.

There are features that you might want to ‘copy and paste’, but there are plenty which you can repurpose. Another useful thing about doing this kind of research is that you can find out what you should avoid at your own wedding. Remember that pics require set up and consider how much you are willing to stage them.

Here are some tips we believe should make your wedding a day to remember.

Find the feeling first

Look for a feeling which will be a compass for your wedding planning. Do you want a rustic, romantic feeling to dominate, or you prefer something more dramatic? Traditional or modern? Classic or more vintage? The right choice of words to describe the feeling will give you the right keywords to commence your search.

The ‘feeling’ will give you a palette of colours to use, endless decoration ideas, and even dresses.

Make it unique – it’s about you after all

If you want your wedding to be a memorable occasion, it must be more than a well-organized, pleasant event. Though most of the wedding and reception can be ‘traditional’ add some unique touches.

The day is all about you – the bride and the groom, so make it about you. Design something that is truly about your life together. Perhaps make a spin on a typical beverage idea, the cocktails, and choose two drinks which will represent the two of you.

Trends that you should follow

This year is still all about greenery and floral decorations. One interesting item in which you can incorporate it in is your wedding arch. The ones trending right now are triangle arches which look stunning in photos, but you could go a bit more traditional with a rounded arch.

Also, wedding invitations this season should arrive by post. Wedding cards are a great way to tell your love story in a personal way. And who doesn’t like to get an actual card?

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you might want to set up a donut wall. It’s a fun way to serve your guests as long as it works with your wedding theme.

A destination wedding is still all the rage, so why not browse through wedding packages and take your guests to Australia or Caribbean. A wedding on the beach will always be trending on Instagram.

The don’ts – naked cakes, overwhelming, too much matching

While we have talked about trends to follow, there are a few that you might want to avoid. One such item is the naked cake. Though the idea is interesting, the trend is not sticking and this season you should skip it. Also, the frosting actually helps the cake remain fresh longer. So there is even less reason to choose a naked cake.

There were two trends taking over until this season, one was overwhelming décor while the other was too much matching. Both problems should be addressed in the same way. Though pastels are great colours for weddings, as they are more romantic and subtle, you should also choose a few colours and decorations that will be centres of attention.

If you aim to be in trend, choose ultraviolet to add this, tasteful, dose of drama. Some examples are adding this more prominent colour to the bucket, table decoration, and hair pieces.

Search the Instagram by following our tips and you are sure to create a memorable wedding for yourself and your guests. Personalize the experience but base it on the traditional basis for better results. Know which trends to follow and which to skip as your photos and memories are forever. Find the middle ground, tasteful but fun, manageable yet exciting. It is a challenge for sure, but it is the one you will treasure for a long, long time.
