Planning a wedding day is a little like starting with a blank canvas, and slowly adding colour and texture to create a stunning image you’re proud to display in your home.
Instead of paints, you need to make choices about wedding vendors, stylists, food to be served, what you’ll wear, the music and more – that will all work together to create the perfect end vision for your wedding day.
But how much is enough? Which choices will pack the greatest punch? And what can you do to really stand out from the crowd?Â
Here, we outline three show-stopping wedding styling trends for 2024, guaranteed to turn heads and get people talking, as well as two increasingly outdated wedding trends, which should be avoided at all costs!
1. TOP 3 WEDDING TRENDS
Outdoor weddings are where it’s at
Think fairy lights, think long tables, think magic and an incredible sunset. Outdoor weddings succeed in creating a relaxed, freeing mood that can very rarely be replicated in an indoor setting. However, the elements can wreak havoc if you’re not prepared. The best way to foolproof your plan is to employ the help of a marquee.Â
The right marquee doesn’t just shield you from the weather; it provides an atmosphere that feels as cosy as an indoor venue, without restricting the feeling of nature surrounding you. The guys at Dann Event Hire have a marquee catalogue that is designed to compliment your aesthetic, without imposing. The curvature of their 5m Bay Curved marquee give goosebumps! While the Botanica marquee has a kind of ethereal quality with its clear curved roof that is show-stopping to say the least.

Let your furniture do the talking
When you think of ways to inject colour or personality into your wedding, few people consider furniture as an option. However, the sky’s the limit when it comes to the number of ways you can create inviting spaces just by switching out standard ‘free-with-hire’ furniture for something a little bolder. Think curved blush pink chairs at your reception, pale pink lounge chairs during your champagne hour – you have the power to create a wedding with a difference with just a few simple swaps.
As a forward thinking event hire company, Dann Event Hire have a wide range of cutting-edge furniture for wedding styling, as they design and manufacture it themselves. However creative collaboration is at their essence, so they’re ready and willing to bring to life whatever dream you have for your wedding day.

Upgrade your dinnerware
White serving platters? Sure. They’ve successfully serviced every other wedding known to mankind, so they’d surely work for you, too. However, wouldn’t a terrazzo platter look sensational in the middle of your wedding tables? What about forgoing standard wine glasses and opting for tinted, curved glassware to serve your guests bubbles, or even dessert?
Dann Event Hire have just introduced the Fazeek Wave Coupes and Vice Versa Carafe into their hire offering and boy oh boy, is this collection a showstopper. Our pick is the ochre wave coup glasses, with matching carafe. Imagine the photos of the toasts! Bliss!

Here are two wedding styling trends to steer clear of in 2024 if you want to stand out from the crowd:
1. Â WEDDING TRENDS TO STAY AWAY FROM
Matchy matchy bridesmaids looks
Gone are the days when bridesmaids had to wear the exact same dress, and matching hair and make-up. In 2024 it’s more about expressing a person’s individuality. That’s not to say they can’t wear the same dress! It’s about allowing each bridesmaid to find ways to make it their own. Whether it’s finding the same dress with different bodice styles, or encouraging them to choose a hair and make-up look they feel sensational in – let’s celebrate our differences!
2. WEDDING TRENDS TO STAY AWAY FROM
All white everything
These days, being clever with colour is the key to achieving a high end look with ease. Sticking with a completely neutral colour palette was chic once upon a time, but in 2024 it’s slipping in a pop of purple by way of napkins, or pops of inky red in your bridal bouquet – maybe even some blue wedding shoes! Be creative, and your touches will be truly appreciated.
