Top Wedding Trends for 2025
The wedding landscape in 2025 is evolving with a focus on personalization, sustainability, and technology integration. Bold and unconventional colors are taking center stage, with couples embracing vibrant hues like emerald green, ruby red, and sapphire blue for evening ceremonies. Sustainability is a key trend, with eco-friendly venues, zero-waste catering, and sustainable wedding attire gaining popularity.
Technology is revolutionizing weddings, with virtual and hybrid celebrations allowing global guest participation.
