As I read through blogs, wedding magazines and talk with industry professionals, the trends that are predicted for 2015 are pretty unique and somewhat nostalgic of some past trends. And since Pantone has announced the Color of the Year as Marsala, it only makes sense that it's on trend with some of the predictions I have for couples planning a wedding in 2015.
The new metallic is copper. It can be used with the most vintage of wedding decor to the uber modern design. And copper can easily be blended with silver or gold.

Several designers had a pantsuit grace the runway showcasing tuxedo-style pants and embellished jackets.and along side Cute tulle, skirt Bridal dresses are new trend for 2015

And the newlyweds receive rave reviews at the conclusion of the wedding reception.
And for the groom, navy suits and kilts have replaced black. Slate grey with the tradition three-button closure is becoming a staple among wedding parties. Plus you will see plenty of bow ties and printed ties on the men walking down the aisle.
