Jour L'Amour Blog

There's a consensus across the country that mint will be the new "it" color and that braids are the bridal hairstyle of choice in 2013, but I wanted to give you the inside scoop on what our creative Houston Brides are swooning over for next year.  Since we are already booking weddings for 2013 and 2014, there are some trends becoming evident that I wanted to share.  These are our top 10 (be sure to Pin anything that tickles your fancy):

1. Bridal Fashion: Color Infusion

Jessica Biel's pink couture wedding gown is right on trend and with designers like Vera Wang and Oscar de la Renta infusing their Spring 2013 lines with red & black, it doesn't seem to be slowing down.  Even our own most conservative brides are finding ways to incorporate color into their traditional white or ivory gowns.  My favorite way to wear this style is by layering tulle or lace over satin.

If coral is the wedding color of the year, then paper accessories are the wedding detail of the year. Thanks to the likes of Martha Stewart, paper products have never been more chic! They're not only très trendy, they also take much less of a toll on your budget than traditional details. This is the perfection detail for shabby-chic weddings, rustic weddings, vintage weddings, retro weddings, and eco-friendly weddings. Not what you envisioned for your wedding day? Consider paper decor for your peripheral events {bridal shower}. Take a look at some of my favorites!
