When it comes to planning your wedding, there is no shortage of inspiration on TikTok. From daily outfits to full-on wedding inspiration—TikTok has the non-traditional, fun, unique concepts couples love for their special day.
Couples once looked for wedding inspiration on Pinterest, however, wedding boards are quickly fading and being replaced with TikTok videos—realistic and attainable ideas anyone can achieve. The video platform is an absolute gem for creative brides.
Take a look at some of the most popular wedding inspiration trends this trendy video platform has introduced. Find out how TikTok will inspire you.
Wedding Styles
TikTok is a popular platform for #allthingsfashion. Whether you’re looking for a Halloween costume or a casual dress for a friend’s birthday party—TikTok is a fashionista’s go-to.
And brides are now turning to TikTok to find wedding attire inspiration.
Coming up with a wedding outfit or choosing the best dress is just one of the stressful elements brides and even wedding guests go through when preparing for a wedding.
TikTok offers a variety of videos that guests and future brides can go to for wedding inspiration. For instance, people can search for fashion tips and hacks as well as the latest fashion trends, including puff sleeves, pearled veils, gloves, and bridal suits.
A common wedding style trend among unique brides is a sleek tuxedo. While non-traditional tuxedos for brides have gained popularity among guests and online followers—as they give off a sense of empowerment and exude #girlboss energy. Pantsuits and tuxedos are also the perfect fit for any wedding.
TikTok has also brought back into the spotlight black pearls, a classic wedding accessory. Black pearls can be worn alone as jewelry or added as a unique detail to wedding veils to make a statement. Pearls are a wedding staple and create a trendy and classy look. Check out our tips for styling pearls with your bridal look.
RegencyCore is another popular wedding trend on TikTok. Made popular from the popular TV show Bridgerton, brides are instantly drawn to the regal, puff-sleeved wedding dresses. For an added statement, complement your RegencyCore motif with gloves and bows, or try on Afarose’s Rosalie A for a whimsical look!
Wedding Traditions
TikTok has introduced numerous wedding practices now famous for their hilarious concepts and inclusive nature.
One new wedding trend includes a Mother-Daughter dance, foregoing the traditional bouquet or garter belt toss.
Traditionally, the bride’s wedding gown is kept secret and the first look reveal happens on the wedding day as they walk down the aisle. For a modernized approach, gather close family and friends in the days or weeks before the wedding for the big reveal. The first look is also trending among couples prior to the ceremony. Once considered bad luck, the first look reveal has become the perfect opportunity to share an intimate moment before the busyness of the wedding and reception sets in.
Another exciting wedding trend is the newlywed's entrance at the wedding reception. Traditionally, guests are asked to stand to formally welcome the newly married couple into the reception. Many couples now, with the bridal party in tow are dancing their way into the reception with TikTok-inspired songs and dances for the crowd to cheer on.
Weddings are about celebrating a love match made in heaven. But what are perfect matches without their matchmakers? Honoring the matchmaker who brought the couple together can make for a touching moment during the wedding reception. The newlyweds can say a few words.
Wedding Planning
TikTok introduced us to many creative tips, tricks, and hacks for anyone planning a wedding. Newly married couples are taking to the platform to share their experiences and help newly engaged couples navigate the hassles of wedding planning.
A wedding invitation with a blank RVSP is among the most common problems couples face during wedding planning. Guests often forget to write their names on the RSVP, leaving the couple guessing. To prevent this, number each card sent to the guests and keep a record to save valuable time.
One unexpected trend rising in popularity is a veil tosser. Photos with the classic headpiece blowing gracefully in the breeze are some of the most challenging to take. Your designated veil tosser can come in handy while your photographer works to capture this breathtaking moment.
Weddings are emotional events, especially for the bridal couple. Avoid a makeup catastrophe by inserting tissues into the bridal bouquet to help keep the bride’s gorgeous look intact.
TikTok users share tips for avoiding wedding day mishaps like unexpected visitors and off-themed attire. Creating a personalized list of #weddingrules is a great way to ease the couple’s stress on the big day. A few rules typically seen include no kids, no cash as gifts, and no plus ones.
Afarose Insider Tip: With millions of TikToks out there, understanding hashtags will make all the difference when trying to narrow down the best TikTok wedding videos for your needs. Search for hashtags like #weddingrules, #weddingtips, #weddingdresses, and #weddingtrends.
