THESE ARE THE 8 BIGGEST BRIDAL TRENDS OF 2016 ACCORDING TO PINTEREST


Pinterest has been one of the best sources of Wedding inspiration for Brides for more than a decade, with its seemingly endless albums of styling, gowns, jewellery, recipes and etiquette – so when they tell us something’s trending, you can rest assured, it’s BIG.

This week, Pinterest released its top 8 Wedding trends by determining its best performing Wedding pins and this is what they are.

1. Unplugged Ceremonies

There has been a whopping 600% increase in Brides saving pins related to ‘unplugged ceremonies’.

5. Toss Bars

This is an interesting one! Toss bars are mini stations that guests can create their own signature mix of ‘confetti’ to throw on the Bride and Groom. It can include bowls of glitter, sequins and petals in all the colours of the rainbow.
