What are your predictions for 2014 weddings?

Hello Wedding Professionals,

Want free exposure for your wedding business? Then, tell me your 2014 wedding predictions!

I'm preparing a blog post that will be published this month, which will be called: 2014 Wedding Predictions. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what those predictions and trends will be. I'll pick the 10 best (and most-likely-to-occur predictions). Then, when I create the blog, I'll mention your business name. I'll also link your prediction to your website or blog. So, this is a great way for you to get a ton of free exposure for your business. And here's a look at last year's predictions.

What should you do???

Please share 1-2 wedding industry predictions below in this discussion thread. Share your thoughts on color trends, fashion, decor, music, etiquette - you name it. See an example below.
Include 1-2 photos in your submission to increase your chances of getting picked. If you do include a photo, please link it to the webpage where it was originally found or give credit to the photographer.
Be sure to include your business name as well as a link to your website and/or blog.

Thanks in advance for your help. I can't wait to see what you think will happen to weddings in the New Year!

I love the rustic idea much more than elegant... rustic is still in!

Apart from all that also wedding invitation designs are going to change. I think next year some swanky invitations cards for wedding will be preferable. some of them I marked are:-

I've never seen scroll invitations. Wouldn't that poke through the envelopes?

I think we will continue to see tea-length dresses in 2014. Tea-length dresses have been reappearing throughout 2013 and in 2014, we are expecting to see a tea-length boom. These short designs are super cute and are a bit different than the traditional wedding dress.
