Intimate elopements are getting more popular

Small and intimate elopements are growing in popularity (see: reasons to elope). This special kind of wedding has become a chic way for many couples to celebrate their love and express themselves. Instead of postponing your wedding due to Covis-19 safety rules and stress over new restrictions, they opt for an intimate elopement. It’s more romantic, unique and, most of all, a lot less stressful experience than a regular wedding.

An intimate elopement in the south of France

While planning your intimate elopement, one of the most important things to consider is a special place. You are no longer restricted by the costs of a big venue and the disposition of your numerous guests. You can let your imagination run free and choose the place that speaks to your heart.

While thinking about the most romantic places on Earth, the South of France is the one that quickly comes to our minds. Besides having the most gorgeous collection of wedding venues, it offers numerous places for intimate elopements. Romantic French Riviera is a perfect destination, offering beautiful scenery, endless sea views, a relaxed, happy atmosphere, the most amazing cuisine, and many more.

Have you fallen in love with an intimate elopement in the South of France already?

New wedding season is around the corner which means new wedding dress trends of 2021! Like everything, fashion changes every year and is influenced by different factors. Some of the recent wedding trends are small and intimate weddings that take place in new types of locations like gardens, private villas, or backyards. A wedding dress worn for this type of occasion will look different from the wedding of the past.

Long months of lockdown, now brides have become more experimental and courageous in their wedding choices. Samantha Iacia from WeddingWire says that in 2021 “Brides and to-be-weds are ditching the idea that you can only wear certain types of dresses in certain settings.”

2021 will be all about statement sleeves, backs, bows pastels and sparkling details. But the biggest dress trend of 2021 is “anything goes”, which means that brides are ditching the traditional white ballgown and opt for colors and different silhouettes.

The choice of the wedding dress is an important moment of the wedding. To help you, we have prepared the guide of the 2021 wedding dress trends you should know.

Less-formal “micro wedding dresses” are having their moment in 2021

The surge of smaller wedding ceremonies and elopements means shorter dresses and less formal styles are trending in 2021. A more casual and personal vibe will be observed during wedding ceremonies and “little white dress” has a chance to be almost as popular as little black dress. This type of wedding dress will be less dramatic and a lot more fitted for intimate ceremonies and low-key venues.

Bridal jumpsuits and pantsuits are a new wedding dress trend of 2021

2021 wedding wardrobe will extend beyond wedding events. Brides are opting for more unique and flexible pieces that can be mixed and match during future events. A bridal jumpsuit as a dress alternative is comfortable and totally stylish. It was trending before 2002 but now it’s getting more popular than ever. Lace, bigger weaves and shimmering fabric jumpsuits are a perfect opportunity for many brides to show their personality and not follow the herd.

Puffy sleeves make a statement in 2021

The ’80 are making their comeback on wedding ceremonies in 2021. Bridal gown designers are mixing retro elements with modern style. Big, puffy, dramatic sleeves will be the favorite detail of wedding dresses. They will give a “wow-factor” to every, even the most simple gown. If you are thinking about a poetic or romantic look, big sleeves will be the best option.

Bows and ruffles for days

Maximalist details are on the rise in 2021. Volume, ruffles and bows give a bride this photogenic and effortless look. Indulge your inner romantic during your big day and make a statement, whether during a small intimate wedding or a virtual ceremony.

Backless wedding gowns are trendy in 2021

You can never go wrong with the classics. Barebacks have been on display for a few seasons trend isn’t slowing down. From deep V-back dresses to completely backless gowns, we love how they give an unexpected flash of skin when photographed from a different angle.

Transformative dresses for multiple looks

2021 wedding dress trends are all about versatility and adaptability. Transformative gowns allow brides to get more than one use out of the same dress. Those transformative options can be worn in multiple ways and can be adapted to a different ceremony type. This can be very helpful in case of postponed weddings or a change of wedding reception venue.

Subtle Sparkle is big 2021 trend

Harper’s Bazaar says “Shimmer never looked so chic. This subtle shine that catches the light feels more like a night sky than all-encrusted, glamorous glitz.” Délicat shimmer in the form of glitter tulle adds an ethereal touch to your wedding gown. This trend will make everybody’s head turn toward you!

Don’t forget that a bride’s style should be as important as current trends. Choose a dress that’s true to your own personal style. And if you are planning a 2021 wedding, contact Avalon Events Organisation for shameless wedding coordination even in those unpredictable times.

WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE A WEDDING PLANNER DURING COVID

by Sabinee | Dec 15, 2020 | destination weddings, event planning, wedding planner, wedding planning, weddings

Getting engaged and planning a wedding is a wonderful time when both of you should celebrate your love and commitment. But planning a wedding can be an extremely complicated and stressful experience, and no one knows that better than couples planning their wedding during the Coronavirus pandemic.

As a Wedding Planner, I’m used to assisting couples choosing their guests list, cake favor, bridesmaids’ dresses, or wedding venue but with years of experience, I can easily handle more unexpected issues related to rescheduling, redoing contracts, or changing the timeline.

Therefore, hiring a wedding planner during the Coronavirus pandemic is not only highly recommended but essential. My ability to relieve stress and save your valuable time will be precious.

Here are some reasons why you should hire a wedding planner during COVID.

Wedding Planner knows every Covid-19 safety precaution

First of all, as your wedding planner, I’ll guide you through the whole process of wedding planning and I will ensure that you and your loving ones are safe and secure. Still, the most important part of my job is to taking care of you and your wellbeing. You can still have a wedding of your dreams and while I’ll create the safest environment possible, before, during, and after the wedding. You can push aside all the worries of Coronavirus. Cheers to Safety!

Wedding Planner has a better knowledge of the most suitable wedding venues

You always dreamed about a destination wedding but since there are many travel restrictions, you think you need to give up your dreams? As an experienced wedding planner, I know the best venues in the South of France, Monaco, or Italy. You’ll shortly find out that you don’t need to travel far to feel like in a fairy-tail! A wedding in a chateau? In a vineyard, in the mountains, or on the beach? I’ve got it all covered!

Weeding Planner will negotiate the best contracts

While planning a wedding during the Coronavirus pandemic we need to take into consideration that, in the worst scenario, your wedding will need to be postponed. That’s why it’s essential to negotiate the best contract with vendors, suppliers, and of course with the venue. I work with venues and vendors constantly and I have a deep understanding of their industry. I advocate for couples to assure the best deals even during these hard times. If the planning change, I’ll find new availability among existing vendors and make sure that everything will be back on schedule.

If you’re planning a wedding in 2021 you should start now! And don’t forget to hire professionals to help you get through it. Avalon Events Organisation will make sure that your wedding is perfect – no matter what.

IT’S GOING TO BE PERFECT!
