9 Elegant Wedding Ideas That Will Never Go Out Of Style

Modern Wedding Posted: May 18, 2019

When thinking about elegant wedding styling, we think about a delicate decor with timeless beauty. Adding classic touches to your wedding will envelop your whole day in an aura of romance and sophistication. We’ve compiled a list of elegant wedding ideas that will never go out of style!

Natalie and Michael's Wedding

Soft Simplicity...

The bridal bouquet has a lot of shining moments on the big day. When a bride walks down the aisle, the perfect bouquet will complement every aspect of the bridal look. A soft bouquet made of roses, hydrangeas or oriental lilies will encapsulate classic romance and give your look a subtle touch of elegance. Think about using whites and soft pastel tones to evoke a truly timeless look.

The Colour Palette Of Dreams...

The colours and tones that are chosen for the wedding will assist in achieving a look of dreamy elegance and sophistication. Neutral tones work well as they are subtle and elegant. Soft combinations of white, ivory, pastel tones and gold throughout your celebration are timeless. This will give every aspect of your wedding a classically elegant aesthetic.

Krista And Victor's Wedding

Say Cheese!...

Floral backdrops are an elegant wedding trend that we absolutely adore! A wall of beautiful florals is the perfect backdrop for photos and will give your guests an opportunity to take some amazing Insta-worthy snaps. These florals will not only bring your colour scheme into another area of decor, but will also add a soft and beautiful look.

Like Stars In The Sky...

Set an elegant ambiance for your wedding with twinkling fairy lights. These lights give the whole venue an enchanting aura and add a touch of magic to your whole day. There are fairy light designs to match all wedding themes and bring a trace of elegance to every wedding style.

Light It Up...

Just like with fairy lights, candles will illuminate your wedding with a soft, romantic glow. This will leave your guests feeling utterly enchanted. Lighting is a key element of styling a wedding or reception and candles are the perfect way to add a hint of elegance. To achieve a truly classic and sophisticated look, use ornate candle sticks as these will immediately transform your venue into something out of a fairytale.

Set To Perfection...

Setting a table that represents beautiful, timeless elegance is no easy feat! A good starting point in achieving an elegant table setting is to utilise soft and delicate fabrics. Keep the tones light and refreshing, allowing the surrounding decor to bring a pop of coloured sophistication.

It’s Raining Flowers...

No wedding is complete without florals! Featuring hanging flower installations throughout your reception venue will create a stunning focal point that exudes whimsical elegance. For that classic, overflowing look, opt for blooms like wisterias, fuchsias or snapdragons. Incorporate foraged greens or hanging vines to complete the dreamy aesthetic.

White Wedding Cake...

Cake trends are constantly changing and evolving but a traditional white wedding cake is timeless and elegant. If you want to add a unique flair to the classic white wedding cake, add creative decorations and tantalising textures. You can also incorporate your own personal wedding style by mimicking the lace on the wedding gown or topping your cake with flowers to match your bouquet.

A Gold Sprinkle...

The colour palette of an elegant wedding often consists of white tones and light colours. Adding in that extra sprinkle of elegance and opulence can be achieved within the finer details of the day. From cutlery, to chandeliers, that touch of gold and shimmering detail will finish off the elegant decor in the perfect way.
