The Modern with Eclectic Influence wedding style is for the ultimate trendsetters – and also the rarest of wedding styles out there. Wedding elements like bold, bright colors, a little edge, a little funk, and a whole lot of personality and fun are infused into every aspect of this wedding style.
Wedding attire for this bridal party will be as unique as the individuals – embroidered blazers in an array of colors, bow ties, vests, or fedoras match that modern vibe. Bridesmaids could have vibrant patterns or designs, bright colors, bold makeup, dark sunglasses, or boots instead of heels all to match the vibe of this wedding style. And for brides, look for wedding dress styles that run ahead of the trends – sequins, colors, a variety of hem lengths - wedding dresses that eschew the traditional and match your personality.
Wedding florals like daisies, cosmos, and zinnia all come in bright colors, but also have a sense of fun and personality as well. Don’t be surprised if traditional wedding bouquets are replaced with wrist corsages, wands, or flower crowns. Ceremony florals will be over-the-top in contrast, size, or style to create a really dramatic impact. Speaking of the wedding ceremony, wedding venues for this wedding style will be somewhere unique and unexpected like a vintage theater, a music festival, a retro diner or planetarium, and your guests will be truly impressed. The Chabot Space and Science Museum and Hornblower Cruise are vibrant and fun examples for Eclectic wedding venue examples, and if you’re more prone to the modern side of this wedding style, Forager in San Jose, California is a great example of a modern wedding venues with it’s exposed brick and wooden accents.
Your wedding reception is the highlight of your wedding, with fun, flair, and friends all the focus of the event. An on-trend cocktail for your guests (aquafaba whisky sour anyone?), while a DJ spins your favorite music, will start off your reception, and lawn games, photo booth or even a bounce house all provide points of entertainment. For this wedding style, tables will be an eclectic array reflecting your colors and styles. Chairs, plates, and stemware may be mismatched, but still be high-end, and pop in an array of bright colors. Menus featuring cool typography will let guests know what to expect, and quirky table names or favors fit the wedding theme and will truly represent your unique personalities.
Wedding photography for this wedding style is bold and classic, and of course has a bit of edge and funk. Neither of you take yourselves too seriously, so playful in posing and styling is true to who you are. Your wedding will be the one to go viral as something truly amazing and trendsetting – and you wouldn’t want it any other way.
