The Greenery Wedding Trend - and why it’s a big hit with brides

Jay Rowden Photography

 

It’s official: Panetone’s colour of the Year is Greenery.

 

Known by its official name as 15-0343 Greenery, this zesty yellow-green shade

is symbolic of vitality, rejuvenation, and our desire to authentically re-connect with the wider world and with ourselves. 

 

And in our innate desire to ‘feeling human’ again, we seek to surround ourselves with nature, and our loved ones. Perhaps this explains why Greenery transcends so well into wedding design, and its rising popularity: the association we have with this ‘life-affirming’ shade is the association we have marriage.

When you picture your dream wedding, where do you feel happiest; the most connected, relaxed or content? Does ‘getting away from it all’ for the big day conjure ideas of wilderness, birdsong and green vistas? The gentle trickle of a water feature in a country garden, hazy dappled sunlight, the scent of wildflowers in the breeze and the comforting sensation of grass between your toes? Is the sensory deprivation of your daily urban grind leaving you wistful for a multi-sensory nature hit? You’re not alone!

It’s finally here. The big day. The day that has taken up every spare waking minute (and sometimes ones when you are asleep) for the last couple of years. It’s the MOST important day of your life and one that you’ve dreamed about for… forever!  It’s the day that you and your partner have saved vigorously for. The carefully selected guest list has been agonised over - where do you seat people, what about the theme?, dress?, decorations?, cake? .. the list goes on. It’s not uncommon for a bride to be to have nightmares and wake up in a fluster of panic leading up to the big day.

  • There are a number of things that are harmful to our skin, from UV rays to a bad diet, but two issues that have come to the fore this year are pollution and blue light from electronic devices. Why do you think these issues are trending now? Both of these issues are trending right now because they are so relevant, everyone has at least a mobile phone plus all the other gadgets we use on a daily basis, tablets, computers etc. We are becoming more and more aware of the effect of pollution and the dangers it carries when it comes to our skin, it’s always been a problem but it’s very much highlighted at the moment in the press and on social media as its very relatable.
