Wedding in minimalist style

A minimalist wedding displays sophistication, brevity and simplicity in every detail. They should be present in everything: images of the bride and groom, stylistics, decoration, concept. In minimalism there is nothing superfluous, which attracts more and more young couples to make a wedding in this style.

A little history

The popularity of the style appeared at the beginning of the last century, when the society of artists «Style» was first formed. In their artistic works they adhered to one principle — each picture should be clear, sober and energetic. Then this rule began to be used in architecture and design of premises, which were characterized by strictness and simplicity. The aesthetic purism of the society of artists had a great influence on the architecture of the last century. Then the style of minimalism began to be actively used during the organization of weddings.

Invitations

Their distinctive feature — unpretentious and concise. A classic white sheet of paper with black font is perfect. To complement it, use botanical motifs, which will be just right in the style of minimalism. From unusual finishes and elegant patterns are better to refuse. Pointers and information plates are made in the same style as the wedding invitations.

Decoration

The main features of the minimalist style are:

• Large spaces and bright rooms.
• Neutral colors without bright accents.
• The interior is dominated by industrial and natural materials: natural wood, metal, glass, linen and others.
• The color scheme is based on white.

To decorate the hall, tables and the arch, greenery and fresh flowers in the same shade are used. The space should feel fresh and light, nothing should interfere with this idyll. On the tables will be appropriate classic white tablecloths with silver candlesticks and candles, crystal glasses and snow-white dishes. Live greenery will add colorful notes.

Color scheme

In this style you can use almost any color, the main thing is that the base of the decor is light — milky, beige, white, ivory. If newlyweds prefer the classics, it is worth choosing white and black colors. Choosing a white background of the banquet hall, it is not necessarily limited to it. To dilute the space with bright colors, you can use such colors as gold, burgundy, blue, olive, pink.

Site selection

When choosing a wedding venue, it’s worth favoring a room with:

• High ceilings and large windows.
• Green gardens.
• Rooms with minimal decor.
• Natural light.

An excellent choice will be a studio with white walls and high windows, a country cottage with a fireplace, a craft restaurant with a large terrace or garden, a loft, a spacious bright hall with panoramic windows.

Images of the bride and groom

The bride on the most important day of her life should be irresistible. From the puffy dress with a lot of jewelry should be abandoned, as it does not correspond to the chosen style. A straight or loose cut, «hourglass» or «fish» dress will be a good fit. A more creative and strict option is a light-colored pantsuit.

The hairstyle should also be simple, but elegant. It can be light curls, a hairstyle «in a hurry», a ponytail, a bundle, a disheveled braid. Varnish for fixation should be used to a minimum, and it is better to abandon it altogether. The bouquet of the bride consists of a single flower, supplemented with greenery. The second option — flowers of one kind, tightly tied with a ribbon.

The groom has everything much simpler. For him ideally suited classic black suit double or triple, white or light shirt, lacquered or suede shoes. To complete the image will help cufflinks, watches and boutonniere.

Guest dress code

Bridesmaids wear light-colored dresses in the floor or up to the knee, made in the same style. For friends of the groom will suit shirts of gentle tones, dark blue or gray jackets, suspenders, shoes in the tone of the bowtie or shoes.
