Top 5 Wedding Trends to Watch in the near future

Weddings are constantly evolving, and every year brings new trends that take the celebration of love to the next level. We’ve been keeping an eye on the latest wedding trends that are bound to take the wedding industry by storm. From creative décor ideas to unique ways of saying “I do,” here are the top 5 wedding trends that will dominate in 2025 & 2026.

1. Sustainable Weddings – Eco-Friendly Everything 🌍

Weddings are getting greener! In 2025 & 2026, couples will continue to embrace eco-friendly practices to reduce their environmental impact. From sustainable venues like Pavilion on the Prom, which offers options for reducing waste, to eco-friendly wedding favours, couples are making choices that are kind to the planet. Expect to see more reusable décor, locally-sourced flowers, and plant-based menus.

Pro tip: Consider planting a tree or having a zero-waste catering option – it’s good for the planet and your guests will love it too!

2. Personalised Wedding Ceremonies – More Meaning, Less Tradition 💖

Forget cookie-cutter ceremonies – future weddings will see an explosion of personalisation when it comes to vows, rituals, and the entire wedding experience. Couples are looking for more ways to make their ceremony a true reflection of their relationship. From custom vows to unique rituals, like handfasting or love letter exchanges, personal touches will take centre stage.

Pro tip: Work with your celebrant to tailor your ceremony to reflect your love story, values, and background. Make it something you’ll remember for years to come!

3. Micro Weddings – Intimate and Meaningful 💑

Smaller weddings are definitely making their mark. Couples are leaning towards micro weddings, where the focus is on quality over quantity. With guest lists of 20 to 50 people, these intimate weddings create space for couples to spend more time with their closest loved ones, offering a more meaningful experience without the stress of managing a large crowd. Pavilion on the Prom is perfect for these small, stylish gatherings, where every detail is elevated, and every guest feels special.

Pro tip: With a smaller guest list, you can invest in high-quality décor, bespoke catering, and unique entertainment – it’s all about making it personal!

4. Bold Colours and Patterns 🌈

Out with pastels, in with bold, vibrant colours! 2025 weddings are all about making a statement with rich hues and bold patterns. Think deep jewel tones, vibrant florals, and dramatic colour palettes that reflect the couple’s personality. Whether it’s an eclectic mix of colours or a solid, striking colour scheme, expect to see a lot more colour popping up in everything from dresses to table settings to floral arrangements.

Pro tip: Don’t be afraid to mix and match! Bold colour combos, like navy and gold or emerald green and blush pink, will bring a fun, modern twist to your wedding day.

5. Technology Integration – Weddings Go High-Tech 📱

As we continue to embrace technology, future weddings will see a rise in high-tech elements to enhance the guest experience. From virtual wedding guests streaming in from across the world to drone photography capturing aerial views of your ceremony, technology will play an even bigger role in weddings. You might even see interactive guest books and robotic bartenders to keep things cool.

Pro tip: For tech-savvy couples, consider having a wedding hashtag for easy photo sharing, or use a wedding app that allows guests to upload photos, send messages, and track event schedules in real time.
