Theme: Romance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Floral Prints and neutrals are still wildly popular this year and aren\u2019t expected to disappear anytime soon.

\"2017

Continue the theme by having your bridal party walk down the aisle in rose gold metallic dresses with modern floral bouquets \u2013 or if you\u2019re daring enough, charming floral printed dresses.<\/p>\n

D\u00e9cor: Greenery <\/strong><\/p>\n

As the pantone color of the year, greenery is really making an impact. From vintage style garlands sweeping across the table to large elaborate chandeliers, this trend is making its mark in classic and modern weddings alike. To ensure this look is both chic and glamourous, pair the greenery with elegant gold accents, oversized chandeliers or baroque details. If you want to stick with a romantic, but rustic feel, you can pair the greenery with burgundy and pale pinks.<\/p>\n

Tips & Tricks to Ensure You Have a Headache-Free Wedding Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reflect on your guest list. Your guests all have something in common- you! Aside from that, many people may be meeting each other for the first time so try to incorporate entertainment or music that will break the ice and have everyone enjoying themselves all night long!<\/p>\n

Hire a Day of Wedding Coordinator. A great \u2018day of\u2019 coordinator will begin the coordination process before the actual wedding day. This person will ask for your vendors list and will communicate with all parties \u2013 do make sure to fill them in on all of your \u2018must haves.\u2019 A detailed floor plan and timeline should be made so that they can ensure your big day goes off without a hitch. Also include a post-wedding packing list to make sure you have your cake topper, knives, champagne flutes and all other mementos before you make your grand escape.<\/p>\n

And finally, ask your caterer to pack you a \u2018to-go\u2019 box with late night snacks. Most couples forget to eat at their wedding only to arrive at their wedding night destination with a yen for a burger. Have the caterer pack you a few of those cocktail hour sliders and some sweet treats to make your wedding night even sweeter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
