1. Draping Everywhere: The Show-Stopping Detail

Draping is taking center stage in 2025 weddings, and we’re obsessed! This elegant and versatile design element is popping up in all kinds of creative ways, from lavish ceiling installations to draped tablescapes that transform the space into a dreamy, romantic atmosphere. We’re even seeing brides incorporate draping into their gowns, adding an unexpected touch of drama to their look. 

Whether you're planning a chic ballroom wedding or an outdoor garden celebration, draping is one trend you won’t want to miss in 2025!

2. Wedding Day Content Creators: Instant, Candid Memories

Social media has forever changed how we capture and share life’s biggest moments, and weddings are no exception. Content creation has been steadily growing in popularity over the past few years, and in 2025, it's exploding on wedding days like never before.

3. Bows Everywhere: A Timeless Trend

If you thought bows were just a passing trend, think again! They’re here to stay and are making a big statement in 2025. From elegant bows on bridal gowns to sweet details on the champagne glasses, cakes, and even tablescapes, bows have become a signature wedding detail that blends timeless elegance with a modern twist. Whether they're oversized and dramatic or smaller and more understated, bows add a touch of femininity and charm that never goes out of style.

4. Basque Waist Gowns: Elegant and Flattering

The Basque waist gown is making waves in bridal fashion for 2025. The Basque waist features a high waistline that curves in at the natural waist and elongates the torso adding both structure and flow to a gown, and it works beautifully for a wide range of body types. If you're looking for something that blends modern sophistication with classic femininity, this is a style to keep on your radar. Expect to see a lot of dramatic ball gowns and sleek mermaid styles using this flattering waistline.

5. Multiple Wedding Looks: A Trend That’s Here to Stay

Gone are the days of wearing just one gown from start to finish. Today’s bride wants options that reflect her personality and offer more flexibility for different parts of the day. Brides are opting for a more dramatic gown for the ceremony—think ball gowns, statement sleeves, and intricate details—and then changing into something more comfortable or casual for the reception or after-party. 

We all know that a wedding gown can be a significant investment, but there are so many creative ways to make the most of your budget while still achieving your dream look. One trend we’re loving right now is the 2-in-1 gown, which features a detachable overskirt or other removable elements. This allows brides to have the best of both worlds: a formal, dramatic look for the ceremony, and a more relaxed, party-ready vibe for the reception. It's the perfect solution for brides who want a little versatility without compromising on style.

Another great option is shopping off-the-rack for your second look. Many brides are finding amazing deals on gowns that have been discontinued or are being cleared out to make room for new collections. These dresses are often just as stunning as brand-new ones, but at a fraction of the price! Be sure to check out our sample gown page. Who knows, your perfect second look might be waiting there, ready to make its debut on your big day!

No matter what trends you choose to incorporate into your wedding, one thing is for sure, 2025 is shaping up to be a year of unforgettable weddings that blend timeless elements with fresh, exciting ideas. We can't wait to see how couples will continue to make their wedding day their own, and we're here to help you every step of the way!
