2014 wedding trends - part one - continuing

In our previous article we had a chat about the Majestic wedding trends for 2014. I just want to elaborate a little about the majestic elements.

First of all it is necessary that you realize that you don’t have to use all the elements discussed above into one wedding. The majestic trend consist of 7 different colour pantones – please have a look at the Lenzing trends photo below - http://www.lenzing.com/fasern/service/trends/trends-autumn-winter-20132014.html



For the purpose of the mood board I decided to use 4 of the 7 colours. I added photos of a bride dressed in a brocade wedding dress, groom dressed in Jacquard material, invitations with a ikat pattern and Boysen berry colored bridesmaid dresses just to mention a few.

Important points to remember:


  • When you are deciding on your wedding colours and theme I would suggest that you make use of 2 to 4 of the above colours – not more than that. Decide which one of the above materials you would like to use and then bring it across in all your dresses and décor.
  • If you are extremely adventures you can use the ikat patterns together with the brocade however you will have to be careful on how you carry the theme through your wedding. Don’t try and use too many elements in the wedding décor.
  • If you want to use the two patterns – rather use ikat on your wedding invitations and then you do the rest in brocade.
  • Another thing that you need to keep in mind is that ikat tends to be very overpowering – it is a pattern that makes you think back to the hippy era. So be careful not to use it as the primary décor trend – rather find places here and there where you can bring it in without it taking over for example: Use a plain type of material or even a brocade table cloth but bring the ikat pattern in on your serviette ring.
  • You can use the ikat patterns and the Fil coupe materials successfully in a themed wedding – just think about a 1960’s wedding theme.
