Trendy weddings can be so much fun, but you don’t want to risk looking back at your pictures and asking: “what was I thinking?” Opting for a more classic wedding with details that will stand the test of time will ensure you’ll have a beautiful wedding day, and that you’ll also love the design years down the line. And if you’re worried about your wedding looking like it’s not from this decade - don’t be! Classic weddings can still be modern, and will always be stunning. Here are a few ideas for you to keep your wedding looking classic:
Classic wedding colours
Forego splashy colours that are only here for one season, and lean on the more classic palettes. The most timeless wedding colour combo? Black and white. If you’re looking to add a pop of colour, shades of pastel are always a big hit, and will still be loved years later. Consider dusty blues, natural greens, or even lilac to bring a bit of classic colour to your classic wedding.
Classic wedding decor
Classic doesn’t mean outdated or boring, and timeless decor is always the perfect choice. Classic wedding decor includes candles, floral centrepieces, greenery, breathtaking backdrops, and more. Classic doesn’t mean ornate, but it also doesn’t mean rustic. Look for clean lines, geometric or natural shapes, and simple elegance. If you’re looking for a modern touch, you can lean hard into trends with table numbers or menu cards, but keep it classic with the larger elements to keep an overall timeless feel.
Classic wedding food
Say no to buffets, and opt for traditional plated service for your wedding dinner. It’s elegant, it’s clean, it’s classic, and it’s always a hit. Classic weddings are elevated and not very casual, so having that reflected even in the food service will give your wedding that classic feel. Keep your dinner service classic, and opt for a late-night buffet with food stations so guests can graze in between bouts on the dance floor. & if you’re looking for a bonus classic detail? Champagne fountains have never gone out of style!
