Couples with a Modern, Simple & Subdued (MSS) wedding style love clean, modern lines, with a touch of the natural world. Wedding elements like neutral colors in tans and grays, natural fabrics, accented with stone, wood or metal elements fill the design of your wedding.
For this wedding style, men might wear suits for their wedding attire, but if they do they’ll be their own. No need to rent tuxes for this wedding. Wedding attire for ladies in the bridal party will feature something out of the ordinary. The wedding dress style will also embrace the non-traditional and may have an asymmetrical hem, a pop of color, be a rich cream instead of a bright white, or be worn with leather biker boots instead of heels. Wedding hairstyle is probably down, makeup is understated, and you look like your natural self.
You prefer your wedding bouquets to look like you just gathered them. Wildflowers, flowering branches, feathers – items from nature are all wedding elements you look for in your wedding florals. For this wedding style, ceremony and table florals might be interwoven with a metal archway or in stone pots, but either way will have a touch of the fantastic. Your arrangements will be over the top in height, size, or structure, to really make a statement. Speaking of the wedding ceremony, large open indoor or outdoor wedding venues with metal beams, brick walls or a lot of glass fits your vision and wedding theme. Forager in San Jose, California showcases the exposed brick and wooden accents in a fantastic way and the San Francisco Mint, with its outstanding architecture, both exemplify the Modern, Simple and Subdued wedding venue style.
When the wedding ceremony is over and it’s time to celebrate, guests will love their craft cocktail and dinner, probably all locally sourced. Tables will feature cool lucite chairs around a table laid with natural linens, black flatware, and stoneware plating fit this wedding style perfectly. Strong typography will be featured on menus, and a live band will be playing in the background.
Wedding photography is low contrast, monochromatic, or desaturated. Be sure your photographer knows you prefer candid and emotional professional wedding photos that capture the feeling of the day, without a lot of posing of you and your partner.
