Our Top 3 Wedding Trends For Spring 2014Spring is the traditional season for weddings, and with good reason. The weather is warmer and more beautiful than ever, there are gorgeous flowers in bloom and there is an all round feeling of happiness in the air. According to statistics, October is the most sought after month to tie the knot in Australia, and with record numbers exceeding 121,000 weddings per year it’s good to get in early.

We, at Covered are already starting to see some trends take shape. It’s fairytale wedding perfection at its best. Think romantic, secret gardens with pretty vintage touches. We are noticing suspended florals are being used more and more. They make for the most beautiful centrepieces at receptions, whether its roses hanging in mason jars or a canopy made from a curtain of flowers to a simple floral backdrop at the ceremony. They are a gorgeous addition to any wedding and will resinate throughout the venue. They work perfectly for both indoor and outdoor settings.

Couple the floating flowers with pretty natural linens and the fairytale comes to life. Soft burlap tablecloths paired with touches of natural hessian will give you the raw, organic look. Popular colours this season are whites, creams and nudes. They create the perfect backdrop for a dream wedding. At Covered we supply our clients with a large range or high quality linen to choose from, paired with the ease of use that comes with hiring and online shopping.

Lastly we are seeing lots more couples opt for share platters over the formal sit down dinners or buffet options. The idea is to share and interact, and pass food around sampling different tastes and enjoying the variety. It’s more relaxed and friendly and seems to add to the dreamy ambience.

So if there are 3 things you should look out for this wedding season, its suspended florals, natural linens and share platters. You heard it here first.
