The latest wedding trends that we can’t get enough of
Summer wedding season is upon us once again! We are forever inspired by and in awe of our #OurLovelies’ galleries and next-level wedding ideas. From bridal bouquets, glassware, and a major pop of color, the warmer weather has us embracing vibrant tones and playful details. Team Lovely is forever on the hunt for the coolest, most creative trends to share with our Babes. Here’s what’s going viral on our Instagram and Pinterest feeds (and lives rent-free in our heads). Keep reading for The Lovely List, a monthly curation of our favorite wedding details and vendors we’ve spotted lately.

Colorful Glassware
Elevate the drinking experience at your wedding with bright, punchy glassware. Your guests can sip in style with these vintage-inspired vessels that embrace maximalism and are a nod to antiques hunting. These whimsical wine glasses by @estellecoloredglass (left) and colorful cups spotted on @detailsdarling (right) are totally Instagrammable!
Parasol Umbrellas
Parasols are an outdoor wedding essential! Not only are they practical for protecting you from the elements, they are also the cutest handheld accessory for a bridal party or for guests in lieu of bouquets or favors. We love the dose of charm and whimsy they bring in photographs. How cute do these bridal parties photographed by @lexichasemedia (top left), @courtneymariexphoto (top right), @revelwoodsphoto (bottom left), and @allisondash (bottom right) look?! We’re obsessed.
Something (Cobalt) Blue
Your ‘something blue’ doesn’t have to be soft and pastel – why not make a statement with a bold shade like cobalt?! This vivid hue is absolutely mesmerizing for weddings. The shade is energetic and unique, while keeping the coolness and calmness that the color blue in general evokes. The cobalt florals for this wedding photographed by @annaroussos (left) and this rounded table setup spotted on @thewed (right) have our jaws on the floor.
Perfectly Placed Pearls
Pearls have been a part of bridal looks for centuries, but we are loving the fresh take on pearl jewelry and accessories for weddings. From hair pieces to earrings to makeup, modern pearl adornments feel both timeless and on trend. The clusters of pearls feel equal parts elegant and edgy – not your grandmother’s pearls! We can’t get enough of these playful and chic dots of pearls spotted on @charlottemensah (left) and @jenniferbehr (right).
Spritz Season
Warmer weather just calls for a delicious spritz cocktail. The Aperol Spritz is not only the hero of happy hour, this popular cocktail is also popping up on our wedding mood boards! We can’t get enough of the bright orange color of these festive drinks as spotted on @detailsdarling (top left and right) and @emilywrenphoto (bottom left and right) that transport us to Italy.
Statement Bouquets
This summer, we’re swapping out light and airy floral colors for bright, bold, and beautiful bouquets. There’s no denying the dose of joy that statement bouquets bring. We are swooning over these blooms of varying pinks, oranges, and purples by @flourishflowerfarm (left) and @franc_flora (right).
