These fun trends for 2025 will make your wedding spectacular.
A new year brings some new and fun wedding ideas to incorporate into your big day! Here are eight trends for 2025 Long Island weddings.
Bright Colors
Choosing bold and bright colors will allow you to stand out from your bridal party. If bright bridesmaids dresses aren’t really your thing, remember that you can incorporate those pops of color with your floral arrangements or bouquets.

Elaborate Cakes
Elaborate cakes are in for 2025! Whether you want a multi-tiered look or a super specialized design, you can include parts of your personality that will make your cake pop – think bold colored icing, superheroes, sports teams, your favorite movie, or favorite hobbies. The possibilities are endless!
Wedding Content Creators
Wedding content creators were definitely in for 2024, and they are only getting more popular. Wedding content creators allow you to share your big day with the whole world instantly. Just give them ideas of what you want and they’ll do the rest.

Even Shorter Ceremonies or Private Vows
While the ceremony is the most important part of your big day, many couples are shortening them to allow for longer cocktail hours and receptions. Shorter ceremonies are great for those who don’t necessarily like being the center of attention. In fact, many 2025 couples are choosing to say their vows privately. This could mean simply turning off that microphone in front of guests, or even saying them before the ceremony, perhaps at your first look.

Hair Down
Let your hair down! In for 2025 weddings are long locks. Start saving some wavy, beachy hairstyle photos! Pro tip – ask your stylist about adding extensions to make your hair fuller on your wedding day.
Multi-Day Events
You may have already planned your rehearsal dinner or a post-wedding brunch the next day with your bridal party. But why not include more guests and make it a multi-day wedding celebration? This fun 2025 wedding trend keeps the party going for a few days, and allows you to spend time with loved ones in a more relaxed setting.

Audio Guestbooks
An audiobook can keep things interesting. It can be as simple as setting up a laptop or an iPad for people to record a message for you, or hiring a wedding pro that offers this service. Either way, it’s a great keepsake that you can listen to for years to come.

Interactive Food Stations
These fun food stations are a great way to make the dining experience engaging and memorable for guests. Look into a sushi station where guests can watch a sushi chef hand roll the sushi rolls, or get your guests in on the action with a build-your-own taco bar or a cheese fondue bar. Keep the interactivity going during the reception with a drink mixer bar – like margaritas or Bellini’s – where guests can add tasty flavored mixers to their cocktails.
What wedding trends are you looking forward to in 2025? Remember – even if you don’t incorporate any of these ideas, that’s okay. The best trends are the ones that reflect your personal style. And that’s timeless.
