Wedding Expert Stefan Gheorghe explains the trends for 2022:

“As couples have more flexibility on wedding planning this year, we will see more extravagant trends become popular. Given that restrictions have been lifted many will be keen to hold their nuptials in sunnier climes, including places, such as, Hawaii and the Caribbean. Moreover, many will be keen to make their wedding receptions more lavish than ever with intricate table pieces and dramatic flower displays that we see in Vintage and Boho inspired weddings. 

Although, as the results suggest, it is likely that intimate weddings are here to stay with small wedding cakes suggesting less is more for many in 2022! Currently we are seeing an influx of couples looking at creating a wedding with a more whimsical style. This is exemplified in the Alice in Wonderland trend by the use of rich patterns and palettes that remind us of all things quintessentially English. A big wedding theme that is sure to be a hit”
