2026 Wedding Dress Trends
Bridal fashion in 2026 is defined by a return to vintage inspiration, thoughtfully reimagined for the modern bride. Drop waists, corsetry, and gathered skirts nod to the past, but are paired with modern fabrics and clean tailoring for a contemporary feel. Accessories are also being redefined, with capes, embroidery, and custom embellishments offering a fresh take on the traditional veil. The perfect finishing detail to your dream bridal look.

2026 Wedding Bouquet Trends
Bouquets this season are refined, minimal, and purposeful. Sleek, compact arrangements, often with a single flower variety and long stems, are a favourite for brides who adore minimalism. Calla lilies and other refined florals are a timeless finish to compliment your bridal look, rather than distract.

2026 Wedding Ring and Jewellery Trends
Your wedding day is a beautiful opportunity to invest in heirlooms, to mark your day, and every day after. In 2026, refined bridal looks are on trend, with double-drop diamond earrings, tennis bracelets, and Keshi Pearls bringing a sense of quiet luxury. Explore our Signature Range of Ceremonial Rings and Fine Jewellery to find the perfect match for your moissanite or lab-grown diamond engagement ring and curate your dream bridal look.
2026 Wedding Décor Trends
Décor in 2026 is deeply personal and highly curated. From the very first invitation to the final detail on the day, each element is thoughtfully designed to reflect you and your guests’ experience. With sustainability at the forefront, investing in a few keepsake details such as fabric-bound menus, bespoke calligraphy, custom napkins, or personalised linens as wedding favours, it ensures your celebration is both meaningful and memorable.
2026 Wedding Colour Trends
Colour palettes this year are inspired by nature and Mediterranean landscapes. Warm neutrals such as buttercream, oatmeal, sand, and caramel create a calm, intimate atmosphere, while deeper earth tones, such as chocolate browns and olive greens, bring a touch of depth to your day.

2026 Wedding Venue Trends: Civil Ceremonies
Venue choices in 2026 are showing a movement toward urban backdrops and civil ceremonies. Couples are moving away from traditional ballrooms in favour of inner-city celebrations, exchanging vows in chic restaurants, courthouses, or even bars. These venues bring intimacy and a strong sense of place, with the venue perfectly reflecting the couple and their love.
2026 Immersive Wedding Flower Trends
Florals are stepping beyond bouquets and becoming immersive experiences. Ground level floral “nests” and large scale ceremony installations are set to transform your venue into an artful backdrop, creating unforgettable backdrop for your “I do”.

2026 Wedding Cake & Food Styling Trends
Food styling is taking centre stage in 2026, with menus designed to double as décor. Instead of overflowing grazing tables, refined food installations are being thoughtfully arranged across modern, minimal tablescapes.
Wedding cakes, too, are evolving into centrepieces of design. From layered mille-feuille, to pavlovas being assembled on-site or champagne towers, your dessert can be chosen not just for flavour but as an expression of your personality and style, whilst doubling as an interactive display.
2026 Wedding Guest Dress Trends: Black Tie
Guest attire is returning to refined formality, with defined dress codes such as black tie or classic evening wear. This not only elevates the atmosphere on the day, but ensures your guests look and feel their very best.

2026 Wedding Photography & Videography Trends
Wedding storytelling is evolving into a blend of mixed media. In 2026, expect documentary-style candids, authentic film photography, and hybrid film-digital packages.
Nostalgia is also making its mark, with hand-held videos, DV tapes, and lo-fi textures woven into high-end cinematography. This blend creates an incredibly authentic way to capture the magic of your special day.
The 2026 wedding trends focus on creating a deeply personal and meaningful experience for you on your special day. From food styling and urban venues to nostalgic photography and vintage inspired bridal fashion, every detail helps you create a day that is both timeless and deeply personal.
