As we step into the heart of 2025, engaged couples are embracing fresh wedding trends that redefine the celebration of love. At Hart and Main, our stunning event venue in downtown Newhall, California, we see firsthand how trends evolve each year. Whether you’re planning a wedding or just love keeping up with the latest in the industry, here’s our guide to what’s in and what’s out for 2025 weddings.
What’s In:
1. Weekday Weddings
Couples are breaking away from the traditional Saturday wedding and embracing weekday celebrations. Not only does this offer more venue availability and cost savings, but it also allows for a more intimate and relaxed experience.
2. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Celebrations
Sustainability continues to be a top priority for modern couples. Expect to see more eco-conscious choices, such as locally sourced florals, plant-based catering, and reusable or biodegradable decor.
3. Statement Aisles
Dramatic and artistic aisles are taking center stage in 2025. From floral-lined pathways to unique geometric patterns, couples are elevating their ceremony entrances to create a breathtaking first impression.
4. Non-Traditional Color Palettes
While neutrals will always be timeless, bolder color choices are making waves. Couples are opting for deep jewel tones, burnt orange, or even pastels mixed with unexpected accents to make their wedding truly unique.
5. Interactive Stations & Food/Beverage
Guests love an interactive experience! Build-your-own cocktail bars, custom dessert carts (like those we’ve had at past events), and live chef stations add a memorable touch to the reception.
6. Bridgerton-Inspired Romance
Regency-era elegance continues to captivate couples, with delicate lace, vintage-inspired table settings, and classical music selections becoming popular choices for a timeless and romantic atmosphere.
7. Unplugged and Intimate Ceremonies
More couples are choosing to keep their ceremonies intimate and distraction-free by kindly asking guests to put away their phones and be present in the moment.
What’s Out:
1. Overly Structured Wedding Timelines
Gone are the days of rigid timelines with little room for spontaneity. Couples are embracing a more relaxed flow to their day, allowing for organic moments to unfold.
2. Traditional Ballroom Venues
While classic ballrooms will always have their charm, couples are seeking more unique, character-filled venues like Hart and Main, where indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly blend for a one-of-a-kind wedding backdrop.
3. Over-the-top Wedding Favors
Couples are moving away from extravagant wedding favors in favor of more practical, sustainable, or edible options that guests will use and enjoy.
4. Standard Guest Books
Rather than the classic guest book, couples are opting for interactive alternatives, such as video message stations, Polaroid guest books, or even audio recordings to capture heartfelt messages from loved ones.
5. Matching Bridesmaid Dresses
Bridal parties are moving toward mix-and-match styles that allow each bridesmaid to wear a dress that complements their style and body type while maintaining a cohesive color scheme.
