The Experts At George Street Photo & Video Identify Top Wedding Trends For 2017

CHICAGO - As a premier, award-winning wedding photography company that spans more than 40 cities, George Street Photo & Video is uniquely qualified to predict the hottest trends that are sure to be part of many nuptials throughout 2017. And there are five trends – from fashion to

food to photography – that the experts at George Street expect to see couples embrace in the new year, as they look for creative ways

to personalize their big day and make it even more memorable for everyone involved.

“Couples want to make their day a true reflection of themselves and their love for each other,” says Nicole Ettenhofer, director of marketing and public relations for George Street. “These creative trends for 2017 are things we’ve been seeing more of lately, and we expect them to really take off in the coming months.”

  • DECADENT DONUTS: Why get rid of the

traditional wedding cake in favor of donuts?

Because you might as well give the people what

they love – fried pastries! Plus, donuts are a

memorable replacement for cake, especially if you

get creative with the presentation.

CROWNS: Bridal crowns are hot and can be

created to achieve almost any look -- from a

romantic floral crown to a glamorous crown of

jewels. Brides have embraced crowns for their

flattering look and because they’re a departure

from the expected.

MISMATCHED BRIDESMAIDS’ DRESSES: Brides are

often relieved to hear that mismatched dresses for

the bridal party are not only acceptable but “en

vogue.” After all, it can be difficult and stressful to

find one perfect dress that is the right fit for each

person and her fashion preferences.

NIGHT VIEWS: Gorgeous wedding photos taken

at night are a hot trend, thanks to the romantic,

modern look of evening landscapes and starry

skies. Photographers can get especially creative

with lighting after the sun goes down.

ONLINE PLANNING: We do everything else online,

so why not plan a wedding that way? It can be the

most time-efficient method of shopping around

for locations and services and finding great ideas.

Couples can also use the George Street Photo &

Video online planning guide.
