Press Release
The Evolution of Wedding Traditions as Individuality Reigns
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Windsor, Ontario – September 13, 2012
Every bride envisions her wedding day as being the stuff that dreams are made of. And this season is no different, as we find weddings steeped in beautiful details, wrapped in fabulous fabrics, sparkling gem accents and featuring stunning bouquets and centrepieces. There will be delectable and creative cakes and unique locations to round out the day.
As predicted last season, Bridesmaid gowns continue to be different colours, and styles, which make them flattering to wear again, after the wedding is over.
The new Pantone colours for 2013 highlight the dusk and inky blues, poppy red, shades of greens in jade, emerald and lime tones and a carry forward from last season, palettes in the orange and purple family with Nectarine and African violet. Neutrals like white and cream continue to be strong with gray as a contender, too.
Headwear continues to look big for next season’s brides; lace caps, birdcage fascinators, veils (short and long), and flowers in the hair. Hats and gloves are also on the horizon and set to make a big comeback.
One of the most important accessories to come on the scene in the past few years has been the bridal shoe. They are adorned with jewels, bows, lace as they peek out from under her bridal gown.
Bridal bouquets are real or silk and full of jeweled accents and, they can be rhinestone or ribbon handled as they create a classic and timeless feeling.
Backdrops are becoming huge and will continue to grow in popularity. Backgrounds behind the head table can be comprised of ribbon in multi-colours, yards of lace or garlands of flowers to add a sense of style and glamour to the reception.
Always a compromise, wedding planning for this upcoming season offers so much choice that it will be easier to find exactly what the bride is looking for. Nostalgia continues with vintage, rustic and retro themes that are beautiful and full of elegance.
After hours and hours of planning, a couple needs to remember to enjoy their day with their eyes fixed on their future life. Their individual wedding style will be the foundation of the life they build together.
