5 South Florida Summer Wedding Trends

Rose All Day Boca Raton

Another summer swinging by. This season was hot and full of gorgeous wedding trends! From bright floral arrangements to tropical themes the wedding world went over the top this summer. If you are planning your wedding for next summer, this winter or just starting to get ideas we have got the five major trends that ruled this South Florida summer. The bright summer sun gleaming and sweltering heat meant a lot of sunset and evening ceremonies. As always in South Florida venues by the water were the most popular including golf clubs, resorts, and prime hotels. Another, incredibly popular summer trend for South Florida weddings was colorful themes. Gone are the days of pale and muted weddings. Further enhancing the South Florida feel are beach celebrations for weddings. This summer featured quite a few beach parties and even some sandy ceremonies. Finally, a huge trend this summer was lighter food.

Accordingly, to the hot summer weather couples are choosing to serve lighter food for their guests. From getting rid of sit down meals altogether and opting for a more foodie vibe to offering fresh fruit and cold dishes the weather is taken into account. While traditionally many weddings did not leave room for these trends the greatest trend in the wedding industry now is unique authenticity. This is why we are seeing more color, from themes to jewelry, and unique celebration choices. Let us take a look at these top 5 trends of South Florida summer weddings and which pieces of wedding jewelry complement them!

1. Sunset Ceremony

First are the sunset ceremonies. The South Florida sunshine can mean an incredible amount of heat and particularly for more formal celebrations that can be an issue. For fully indoor weddings the time of day is really of no concern. However, for those couples wanting to take advantage of the incredible weather and make sure that their guests are comfortable the time of day is crucial. This is why we have seen a growing trend in sunset ceremonies. First, they provide gorgeous photo opportunities and a break from the heat. Particularly for water and beachfront ceremonies scheduling them for the sunset hour has been a winner this summer.

Here is a few lovely jewelry pieces ideal for a tropical sunset ceremony.

With the warm weather sometimes developing into intense heat bridal parties are now enjoying cooler and lighter meals. Some couples have chosen to scrap the idea of a sit-down meal altogether while others have opted for unique cool summer dishes like cold soups, ceviches, and fresh fruits. At events featuring small bites rather than sit down meals the cocktail vibe rules. A very foodie and specialty tasting type of menu these small bites took the summer by storm. Apart from being more appropriate for the weather this trend also leads to a more active type of celebration. Additionally, the color parade continues with vibrant fruits and fresh dishes of every color. Some weddings even featured tropical fruit arrangements and wove the summer foods into the wedding theme.
