" I ’m actually surprised the cursive ' bridesmaid ' font has n’t died off yet . I detest that baptistery . "
Recently, Redditoru/stress789asked,“What wedding trends of today do you think will eventually be dated?“Reddit users chimed in with the popular “wedding aesthetics” they think will become outdated rather than timeless. Here’s what they had to say:
1.“Acrylic signs.”

2.“I’m seeing a lot of ’70s-inspired wedding looks these days, and I think it’s going to look the way the early 2010s boho/hipster vibe looks to us now.”
— uranium / innocentstrawberry
3.“Pampas grass and triangle arches. Boho dresses.”
— u / DonTot
" I ca n’t hold off for pampas grass to be a thing of the yesteryear … that ’s expensive for being dead , juiceless weeds . "

4.“Tombstones everywhere. The arches, the table numbers, the menus.”
— u / voldiemort
5.“The neon signs, especially of the newlywed’s last names.”
— uracil / scarletnightingale
6.“The rustic look, specifically a geometric, wooden-shaped altar with some flower attached to it.”
" I never understood the geometrical arches . I signify , everyone should do what they desire , but at NO POINT in this process did I think , ' You know what my ceremonial occasion REALLY needs ? The ability to stand inside a hexagon ! ' "

7.“Donut walls.”

8.“Design/decor:Thecursive font, marquee letters, neon signs, film cameras on tables, and Y2K/’70s design elements.”
— u / happytransformer
9.“In terms of dresses, I think the more form-fitting, lace style will be dated (but that is also what I got, so no hate). In terms of rings, the solitaire cut and pave band are both very trendy, so I can see those being dated. Diamonds, in general, are also becoming less popular, so we may see a shift to a nondiamond ring, which is more common.”

10.“I hate the beige/white/tan aesthetic. Most people I know that choose this do so because they think it’s ‘timeless.’ I just find it boring 😴. To each their own, but I’m definitely a bold design/color girly.”
— u / Teepuppylove
11.“Mismatched bridesmaids dresses. I love the idea of everyone being comfortable in styles they like, and I will adopt the trend for my next wedding next year. But something tells me the trend won’t vanish but will die drastically.”
— uranium / JawBoneBreaker1
12.“I’m actually surprised the cursive ‘bridesmaid’ font hasn’t died off yet. I hate that font.”
— u / Ok - Housing5911
13.“The bare/minimal icing wedding cakes! I think they’re cute, but it’s a trend and will probably look dated in photos.”
— atomic number 92 / complete_doodle
14.“On wedding dresses: The tops that look like lingerie. Super cute if that’s your style, but in a few years, it’ll be so dated.”
— u / TinyTurtle88
" stays - style dress are the 2020s version of the ' 80s/’90s poofy - sleeve trend . "
— u / Waste - Carpenter-8035
15.“Bows. While they’re pretty, and I’m actually planning on a few bow things for my wedding next year, I think this trend will be done within the next few years. I can see people thinking it looks too young or something.”
— u / iceicemilkshake
16.“Desaturated photos. The ones where the colors aren’t true, or there’s so much white light to make everyone look ethereal.”
" Also , the dress with cloth appliqués all over them . "
— u / EmeraldLovergreen
17.“Blurry film photos.”
— uracil / One_Yam_9539
18.“All those mirror sign seating charts since they’re difficult to read.”
19.“The washed-out pastel color schemes, especially sage or mint green. Shades of rusty orange are also big now, especially for fall weddings, and I don’t think it always will be the case.”
— u / TerribleAttitude
20.“Gloves and pearls. The oval diamond on a thin gold band. Confused as to why so many people say it’s timeless because it’s clearly a hallmark of 2020s rings.”
— u / lax1245
21.“Something I’m including in my wedding that I’m sure will be dated soon: Alternative bouquets.”
" I ’m doing a LEGO bouquet . I see crocheting bouquets are becoming more democratic , but honestly , I think it ’s one of those thing like themed wedding where some people will always do it , but it wo n’t be as common as it is now . "
— atomic number 92 / LittleBug088
22.“I hope the extravagance dies out. My heart aches for these couples spending upper five and six figures mostly for the aesthetic, and then, they come back here and post about everything that went wrong.”
— u / Frannie97
And finally…
23.“I have so many thoughts! Champagne towers. Everyone wearing colored sunglasses and glow sticks. The drop/baroque-waist wedding dresses. Eucalyptus. Sparkler exits.”
" The faux hand face , and similarly , the elongate cursive everyone uses . Bud vases . Wedding hair that ’s down with the two pieces near the ears immobilise back , and similarly , Hollywood wave . Oval rings with a Au set ( guilty , lol ! ) . The greenback for everyone at their seat setting . marriage ceremony glove and puffy sleeves . broider veils / dresses . Disco balls ! OK . That ’s all I can think of . "
