feature image blog

Terracotta tones are one of the 2022 wedding trends, which means that we will see many desert tones, dusky pinks and several shades of brown and toffee in wedding decoration this year. Usually, a terracotta wedding is ideal if you have in mind a boho wedding, those colors really suit the boho style.

Let’s start with the bridesmaids’ dresses. You have a wide range of options to explore: from light brown to an intense rusty color, from dusky pinks to a light rose, from sand color to light orange. You have many different tones that you can also mix up together to create a multiple tones effect.

Bridal flower bouquet is also very important. Choose romantic flowers as peonies, roses, dahlias. If you want to create a rustic effect you can also think about using dried flowers. You can also add greenery, remember that sage green with terracotta tones is a perfect match.29D92D34-3E8D-4729-81BE-E282B07712BD

As for decoration, you should think about table setting first. For instance, you can consider using runners on the dinner tables and special tables, such as buffet or sweet tables. You can use different fabrics to create a boho or rustic effect, such as rustic cotton, linen or velvet. Also, here you can mix and match different tones in line with your wedding color palette. Other decoration elements you can consider are nametags, floral centerpieces, napkins, vases, lamps, candles.

Another important item is the wedding invitation. There you will give a sense of the wedding theme to your guests, so choose the invitation design carefully. Use the right font, the more romantic the best, the right terracotta tones and do not forget about the paper and how the colors look like on it. So try to do some samples before making your final decision. 02-Boho-Terracotta-Invitation

So after supporting the bride during the wedding planning process, the wedding shower and wedding side-events your job hasn’t finished yet, there is still the big day with the wedding ceremony and the reception to go. So be ready to be there for the bride! Here a list of duties for the wedding day:

  • Prepare an emergency kit for the bride; this should include tissues, lipgloss/lipstick and other make up she might need during the day for a touch-upa sewing kit in case of last minute dress retouches or for any wedding dress problems may arise, quicksilvers are also essential in my experience and very practical. Also, include in the kit some basic remedies, such as aspirin. It is important to be prepared!

  • Do not forget the snack and a bottle of champagne for the bride and the other bridesmaids while you’re getting ready. This is very important also for creating a relaxing atmosphere before the ceremony.
  •  Get dress and ready before the bride to help her into the bridal gown. This is one of the nicest moment for the pre-wedding photography session, so make sure that the photographer is there to document this special moment.

  • During the ceremony keep an eye on the bride’s veil, it should be placed in the right way (depending on the veil usually it could go on a side or in the aisle) for the photographer to take great pictures. Seat in the front by the bride’s side and be ready for the procession back out at the end of the ceremony.

  • Be prepared with the wedding party to enter the reception area right before bride and groom once you are announced. So do not get lost during the cocktail hour, nobody wants to look for you in that moment and bride and groom won’t be eager to wait for you!

  • You might need to give a speech after bride and groom arrival at the reception venue, this actually depends on the bride’s choice. So be prepared for it and have your speech ready before the wedding day, considering that this day you will probably have no time to organize your idea and write down something. You can note down on a piece of paper your ideas or on your cellphone, or just memorize it. It is up to you!

  • Try to be the soul of the party and make sure that all the guests are having a great time! So, once the music kicks in, start dancing on the dance floor, so that people will join you and the party will easily start. Also try to mix with the guests and make sure that people are entertained. This will help bride and groom to relax and have fun.

So bridesmaids to be, we hope that this article can help you have your duties clear and be a real supportive rock for the bride during her special day!
