2018 Wedding Trends

While you may not want a full theme for your wedding or you're trying to stay as timeless as possible; it's nice to keep up with the trends as they come and go.

Of course it's important that when you look back on your photos in 20, 30 years you want to still look cool and contemporary... but it's not always possible. I'm sure some of the ladies in the eighties with big hair, extra blusher and shoulder pads thought their look would never date!

So with that in mind, we're looking at some of this years trends that will still be beautiful when you're showing the grandkids :)

Greenery

Green is a huge colour across the board this year from the catwalks to interiors to stunning wedding florals. And why not? It's the perfect trend that couldn't date! Some of our favourite ways to include florals can be seen on our Pinterest board. We also love this shot in the hotel where gorgeous greenery is present

Bringing more foliage into your wedding bouquet is timeless and can really add to your photographs too as seen here in a stunning bouquet by Wedding Flowers By Josephine (a regular at our wedding fairs!)

Bridal Jumpsuits

The year of the bridal jumpsuit is in full swing! Would you do it? We love it here! So unusual, brave and makes such a statement. Think of the comfort too ;) Again, back to the timeless elegance thing... we can't see something as beautiful as these dating too easily

Love the trend but don't want to give up the dream dress? We have the answer - bridesmaid jumpsuits! We think your girls will love them :)

Simple Invitations

While handmade, woven, brocaded invites are stunning, this year is all about the simple, transparent wedding invitation - and we think your guests will appreciate it! They're easy to read, good for the environment ;) and for good measure - less expensive too!

Our wedding day at the Bridge House Hotel was absolutely perfect, with incredible attention to detail and outstanding staff who went above and beyond to look after us. A special thank you to Angela, the wedding coordinator, and Alanna for their fantastic support from start to finish. We highly recommend the Bridge House for weddings and can’t wait to return again soon.

From the moment we booked the Bridge House for our wedding, the team was fantastic and made everything run seamlessly. Noel was exceptional in helping us plan, and Angela and the team went above and beyond on the day. The food was outstanding, and our guests are still talking about what an amazing time they had.

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Bridge House Hotel and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Alana, Dawn, and Noel were incredible from start to finish – their attention to detail, warmth, and professionalism made everything run seamlessly. The Millennium Suite looked stunning, the food was exceptional, and every staff member went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend the Bridge House Hotel for a truly magical wedding.

“We got married at the Bridge House Hotel in Tullamore and it was the best decision we made! From the warm, charming venue to the incredible staff—especially Noel and Alana—everything was flawless. The day was magical, stress-free, and unforgettable. We truly felt like royalty. Thank you for giving us the perfect day!”
