Though Hashtags have been an ever popular trend for the last couple of years, 2017 we’re predicting more Snapchat GeoFilters, live hashtag streams and video streaming for ceremonies.

Light Pink Wedding Dresses
Not all brides want to white. We’ve been seeing more and more colored dresses and think link pink will be a killer trend for 2017.

Sugar Flowers aren’t anything new, but more and more couples will opt for artfully crafted and edible sugar flowers on their wedding cakes as opposed to fresh flowers.

Film Photography
Film photography is definitely not new, you could argue the opposite in fact. However, digital photography has taken over the last several years. 2017 is going to be a BIG year for film photographers as more and more wedding blogs are only publishing film now.

Laser-cut Everything
Calligraphy is so popular but more and more brides are asking for laser cut cake toppers, table numbers, place cards, bar signs, and the list goes on and on.

Say Goodbye to Sparklers
Sparklers have been the go-to item for grand exits for the last several years. Due to fire restrictions and permits more and more brides are opting for ribbon wands, glow sticks or fiber optic sticks.

Colored Engagement Rings
With companies such as Trumpet and Horn and Chinchar Maloney, brides has so many options of hand-made colored stones.
Bright Blooms
Shades of whites and blush have dominated wedding florals, but brighter yellows and oranges will be big players in 2017.
