Trend Influences Inst agram has 100% influenced styling t rends and I t hink it will only cont inue to do. We sadly don't get sent images from magazines anymore, or even saved photos but rat her screen- shot s. All screen- shot s and mainly from inst agram. I t hink because Inst agram is a great tool to visually market t he story of your brand, it draws you in to t he aest het ics and t he design t hat goes in to weddings and event s which ult imat ely sell t he look. Whilst we love t his tool, we st ill always encourage our couples to inject t heir personality in to t he day also. You can st ill have an inst a- wort hy day wit h heart and meaningfulness too and t hat 's somet hing we are really passionat e about holding on to in t he world of new t echnology. Lauren, Et c. Event St yling, Founder/ Creat ive Direct or
Keeping wit h t he natural and organic vibe, we'll be seeing lot s of weddings inspired by places like desert s and even jungles. Out door weddings are always popular, but even if t hat 's not possible, we'll st ill get t hat feeling indoors wit h vibrant colors and t extures being used t hrough flowers, linens and st at ionery. The organic and boho chic vibe is moving into 2020, and for very good reasons. First of all, t he natural look is gorgeous and it doesn't matt er what color you use because t hey all work. Secondly, it 's a versat ile design and you can go full on nature or you can glam it up wit h bling and cryst als. If t his isn't t he year t hat we see Bermuda as a t rendy dest inat ion spot , t hen I have no idea when it s going to happen. Bermuda has gott en a st eady amount of press in t he past two years, and given how close it is to NYC, it 's an easy t rip to make. Plus, t here is somet hing t here for every style, and it 's about as luxurious as you can imagine. Danielle Rot hweiler, Wedding Planner, Rot hweiler Event Design
