Emilypost.com lists the following trends as increasing in importance for weddings which are currently being planned.

• Personalized weddings are increasing. Brides may follow traditional guidelines for the ceremony and reception, but they also want their day to have elements that are unique for the couple and which make the event memorable. Creating a monogram that is used throughout the process or adopting a signature color or theme are ways to put an individual stamp on the event. Invitations may be the first indicator of a couple’s intention to individualize their wedding.
• Cost sharing is common. At one time the bride’s family funded the event, but with couples being older and both employed, wedding costs can be shared or even funded solely by the bride and groom. What has not changed is the need to have clarity around who is paying for what.
• High Tech influence is clear. The internet plays a growing role in registries, vendor research and selection and information sharing related to the wedding. Maps, instructions and even invitation design are possible with the help of electronics.
• Color is appearing in more and more bridal gowns. Color themes are increasing in popularity and are influencing all aspects of the wedding –flowers, invitations, attendants attire, reception décor and even food, beverage and cake display.
• Grooms are more actively involved in wedding planning and choices. Couples often take mutual responsibility for all aspects of wedding decision making – guest list, financing and even writing thank you notes.
