1. Rustic Chic & Barn Venues

Barn venues continue to be a favourite for couples looking for a mix of charm, elegance, and a laid-back atmosphere. Think exposed wooden beams, vintage accents, and fairy lights, paired with modern touches like sleek furniture and minimalistic florals for an upscale rustic feel. 

2. Boho Vibes 

Bohemian-inspired venues are on the rise, with couples opting for outdoor settings like garden estates with a relaxed and carefree vibe. From low tables and vintage rugs, to lush greenery, and dreamcatchers. Intimate spaces with a relaxed, earthy feel are perfect for the boho couple. 

3. Industrial Elegance 

Industrial spaces like lofts, warehouses, and factories are becoming increasingly popular for couples seeking an urban, chic backdrop. With exposed brick walls, steel beams, and large windows, these venues offer the perfect juxtaposition of raw materials and elegant décor, such as chandeliers and velvet seating. These are also the perfect setting for an LED backdrop. .

4. Destination Weddings in Iconic Locations 

Whether it’s a vineyard in Kent, a castle here in Scotland, or a beach resort in the Mediterranean, destination weddings are continuing to grow in popularity. These venues not only offer stunning backdrops but also make the event feel like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We recommend keeping décor to a minimum, as the surroundings often speak for themselves. 

5. Minimalistic & Modern Venues 

Simple, modern, and sophisticated venues are gaining traction. These venues tend to focus on sleek designs, clean lines, and lots of natural light. Think of places with floor-to-ceiling windows, white walls, and minimalist décor. For couples who love modern art or architecture, this type of venue offers the perfect setting.  

6. Vintage Glamour 

For couples who love all things vintage, choosing a historic venue such as a museum, art gallery, or an old theatre offers a timeless vibe. These venues are full of history, with ornate detailing and unique features like grand staircases, chandeliers, and vintage accents. 

7. Garden & Outdoor Venues 

Nature-inspired weddings are still trending, with garden weddings offering a stunning and serene atmosphere. Outdoor venues like botanical gardens, private estates, and forested areas allow couples to say their vows surrounded by lush greenery, blooming flowers, and natural beauty. If you are looking for this outdoor feeling but can't find the perfect venue, what about hiring a foliage or floral backdrop to bring the outside-in? 

8. Farm-to-Table Venues 

Venues that focus on sustainability and local, seasonal food are also becoming increasingly popular. These venues often partner with local farms and food vendors to offer a farm-to-table dining experience. Not only does this trend align with eco-conscious couples, but it also guarantees fresh, high-quality meals for guests.  

9. Luxury Hotels & Resorts 

For couples who want elegance, sophistication, and convenience, luxury hotels and resorts offer impeccable service, stunning views, and incredible amenities. Whether it’s a rooftop with a view of the city or a beachfront resort, these venues are perfect for couples seeking an all-inclusive experience. 

These trends highlight how versatile wedding venues have become, offering everything from rustic charm to sleek urban sophistication. Whatever the style, it’s all about finding a venue that reflects the couple's personality and vision for their big day!
