2022 was a historic year for weddings. Coming back from a pandemic, we saw weddings in a whole new light. After two years of downsized or delayed nuptials, weddings came back in full force and felt more intentional than ever before. And 2023 will see that even more! Wedding personalization and breaking the norm are continuing to drive wedding trends in 2023. Couples will make their weddings entirely their own in 2023, so there is no standard template for 2023 weddings, making it more exciting. So what will trend in this new year? We have the top 8 trends that you will see everywhere in 2023.
Intimate Weddings, At Home or Destination Ones

While intimate weddings were born out of a need in the pandemic, many couples have embraced it like their own. A lot of couples in 2023 will opt for small intimate celebrations where they pay personalised attention to their guest list and also have fun. This will also extend to intimate destination weddings!
Destination Engagements & Announcement Parties

Now this is a new trend we are spotting, which makes absolute sense too! More and more couples are choosing to have a wedding announcement party right after the proposal- or a destination engagement which is a more relaxed celebration like a vacation with near and dear ones.
Guest-Centric Activities

With people feeling so constrained for the last few years, couples will now go all out with events and activities that their guests can participate in. Think fun outdoor movie nights, games and fun activities that are an amazing way for couples to truly take in as much time with family and friends as possible.
Curating Unique Wedding Moments
Having unique moments at your wedding is going to be big in 2023. Having your wedding ceremony live painted or having a fun petal and bells bar for your guests to celebrate your wedding nuptials are some of the ways you can infuse this uniqueness to your 2023 wedding!
Picking Non-Traditional Bridal Wear

More and more brides are picking personal style over wedding fashion trends. They are opting for outfits and silhouettes that are non-traditional, making the bridal outfit their own. We are loving brides in pantsuits, jumpsuits and even fusion wear on their wedding day!
Rainbow Décor

2023 weddings are going to be all about colour and joy! Rainbow décor started trending in 2022 and it will continue its march in 2023 as well. Florals in multi-colours are going to trend in 2023.
Sustainable Weddings

Right from non-floral wedding décor to eco-friendly wedding favors, sustainable weddings are going to be big in 2023. Couples are making conscious decisions to cut down on emissions by using local vendors and produce as well as reducing food wastage. In every part of wedding planning, efforts are being made to go sustainable.
Gorgeous Mandaps And Locations

Your wedding mandap is the focal point of your wedding day. Mandaps are getting more and more creative by the day along with wedding locations. Upside-down trees, weddings at the foot of the mountains, forest weddings, rustic boho mandaps – all these are going to trend in 2023!
Night Celebrations

Also dubbed the “night luxe vibe,” this trend is about evening weddings that translates to a post-wedding party at night. It’s a moody vibe and a reason to class things up: flash photography, the play of lights, drone shows, fireworks and so much more!
