I'm sharing my blind reactions to Vogue's predictions for which wedding trends will be in and out for 2025. See how many I agree and disagree with - and what I get my soapbox about this year! lol
Remember to always do what you like. Trends and just trends and your wedding should reflect you as a couple!
As I said last year, this article was not as inclusive as it should be. Vogue said "bride and groom" when referring to couples. If that upset you, know that you are not alone.
