In the age we live in, can you imagine planning a wedding without a Pinterest board of your own? Over the years, the app and website played the role of a constant source of inspiration and game plan for brides-to-be and wedding planners alike. From real wedding photos to rustic and boho themes, illustrious wedding cakes, reception and ceremonial décor and so much more — the social media tool as essentially shaped the wedding industry as we know it. For 2018, Pinterest revealed unveiled the Pinterest 100, its annual trending forecast for the year based on the most searched and pinned posts – and we’ve pulled out the top five outstanding wedding ideas that are sure to keep you ahead of the trends.
Guestbooks, but better
Saves for “guest book keepsake” +216%
These unique keepsake wedding mementos will stay on display for years, as opposed to stay hidden in the back of the closet post the wedding. Invite friends and family to leave words of endearment, advice, or encouragement on a Jenga piece, creating a unique game set that you’ll cherish forever.
Balloons get boutique-y
Saves for “filled balloons” +86%
Aisle Perfect
It’s not all hot air—balloons are filling up with foliage, glitter and other fanciness, and even brides are taking notice. We particularly are in love with fern and flower filled transparent balloons that could liven up the simplest of venues.
We can’t believe it’s not dairy!
Saves for “vegan desserts” +329%
Summer Pudding
Pinterest proves that you can satisfy your sweet tooth without animal products—just trade coconut oil for butter and flax seeds for eggs. The gorgeous array of colorful treats will change your mind about adding more healthy and allergen free options at your ceremony or next event.
Mexico’s vámonos moment
Saves for “Mexico City” +96%
Cenote Ik Kil, Yucatán, Mexico.
The DWP Congress 2018 destination is one of the trending escapes on Pinterest. Some go for the glamorous cities and street food, others for sparkly beaches and ancient pyramids, and almost 96 percent more people are with us in the latter group!
DIY for guests to try
Saves for holiday and events activities +114%
Karla Boo
Interactive stations for make-your-own-tacos or cupcake stations will get the guests out of their seats and into the wedding spirit.
