2025 Wedding Trends

2025 Wedding Trends Complete Springfield Loves Seeing (and Social Media Is Loving Too!)

4.1.25

As a leader in the wedding industry, Complete Weddings + Events Springfield, Missouri, has a front-row seat to the latest trends couples are embracing for their big day. While some trends fade, others leave a lasting impression and elevate the wedding experience. Recently, I’ve been noticing (and absolutely loving) these 2025 wedding trends that are making waves on social media!

Bold Color Palettes

Neutrals had their moment, but 2025 is all about bold and vibrant color palettes. Think rich jewel tones, striking pastels, and even unexpected color pairings that bring energy and personality to the celebration.

Vintage Elements

Vintage-inspired weddings are making a strong comeback, and I’m here for it! Whether it’s a classic car send-off, delicate lace details, antique furniture for lounge areas, or heirloom jewelry, couples are embracing the charm of the past in unique ways. These elements create an air of nostalgia and romance that looks stunning in photos.

Dramatic Drapery

Ceilings adorned with flowing fabrics, cascading curtains framing the ceremony space, and billowing tent designs—drapery is taking wedding décor to the next level. This trend adds an ethereal touch, making the setting feel elegant and intimate, no matter the venue. Plus, it creates a gorgeous backdrop for photos!

Abstract Florals

Florals are evolving beyond traditional arrangements. Think asymmetrical bouquets, sculptural floral installations, and unexpected color palettes. Couples are getting creative with their floral designs, incorporating unique textures and unexpected elements like dried flowers, painted petals, and oversized blooms. These arrangements make for incredible statement pieces.

Incorporating Food into Centerpieces

Why settle for just floral centerpieces when you can also tantalize your guests’ taste buds? Edible centerpieces—featuring charcuterie boards, fresh fruit, mini dessert towers, or even personalized bread baskets—are making waves. Not only do they look beautiful, but they also create an interactive experience for guests to enjoy.

Outfit Changes

One dress is no longer enough! More couples are embracing outfit changes—whether it’s a chic second dress for the reception, a stylish jumpsuit for dancing, or even a quick switch into cultural attire for a meaningful nod to heritage. These changes add excitement to the night and provide more opportunities for incredible fashion-forward photos.

Long Textured Veils

Veils are making a major statement, and the longer and more detailed, the better! Brides are choosing veils with intricate lace, delicate embroidery, or bold floral appliqués that add drama and elegance. These veils not only enhance bridal portraits but also create stunning, cinematic moments during the ceremony and first look.

Capturing Memories with QR Codes

In the age of digital sharing, QR codes are becoming a fun and practical wedding feature. Guests can scan a code to upload their photos and videos, access a digital guestbook, or even see a live slideshow from the event. It’s an easy way to keep memories in one place and relive the magic from multiple perspectives.

Statement Wedding Cakes

Minimalist cakes are stepping aside for dramatic, artistic, and sculptural cakes. Bold colors, hand-painted details, unique shapes, and even metallic accents are making wedding cakes a true statement piece.

Signature Drinks

Signature cocktails (or mocktails!) are a fun way for couples to personalize their wedding. Whether it’s a drink inspired by their favorite vacation spot, a creative twist on a classic, or a duo of “his and hers” beverages, these custom drinks add a special touch and get guests talking. Bonus points if they come with a cute name and an aesthetic garnish!
