According to Vogue, more designers are incorporating lower waistlines into their 2024 collections, embracing the corset style dress. Known as the 'Basque Waistline', this accentuates the body's contours, creating a long and elegant silhouette, that brings just the right touch of princess to the modern bride.

Green
Less florals, more ferns. Weddings and flowers go hand in hand, but this year couples are expected to be emphasising leafy greens over blossom pinks, giving weddings a fresh and rustic look. According to the wedding planning app Bridebook, green is the most popular accent for nuptials recently, and couples are drawn to the authenticity and charm a green palette provides.

Audio Guestbooks
Instead of flicking back through a guestbook, imagine playing personalised voice notes from your guests.

Couples are enhancing their guest's experience with the audio guestbook, using old-style phones that allow guests to pick up the receiver and record a message for the couple. The company Calleo UK, for example, offers retro phone boxes as well as vintage rotary-style phones, so couples are left with personalised messages they can cherish for years to come.
The Wedding Content Creator

Forget about the photographer or videographer. The new must-have is the personalised wedding content creator. The "story" of your wedding will be captured by one person's versatile digital skills, as they create content for Instagram and Tiktok, capturing your dream day with a very bespoke style and vision. If you want to ensure your day is a social media sensation, the wedding content creator is for you.
