Wedding Style - Beach Chic

Throw a coolly coastal wedding in Cornwall with these dreamy ideas

Weddings are highly personal events, with everything from the dress to the decor hand-chosen in a style you love. But, of course, personal choice sometimes needs a little helping hand - especially when you have no idea what you want! This is where trends come in handy... Being able to predict what will be 'trending' in upcoming wedding seasons means you can plan your day knowing you'll be able to find inspiration and suppliers who can help create your bridal vision. Thanks to online scrapbooking Pinterest, who've reported what people have been pinning, sharing and searching this year, read on to be inspired by what's hot and happening...

BEACH CHIC

Beach weddings are back, and thanks to our coastal county, they're set to be bigger than ever here in Cornwall. Avoid overdoing the theme, and instead allow a relaxed, pared-back aesthetic to bring that laid-back vibe to your day.

Lending itself to a soft palette, embrace the colours of the sea, sand and sky - but don't be afraid to look beyond blues and greens to include shades of grey and gold too.

When it comes to that easy-breezy mermaid look, take inspiration from chunky fishtail braids, big bouquets of winding vines and intricate shell crowns.
