New Trends, Same Heart: What’s In for 2025
Wedding trends come and go. Neon signs. Doughnut walls. Champagne towers. But in 2025, couples are craving more than just what looks good in photos. They want meaning. Simplicity. A celebration that feels like them.
At Bellamere Winery and Event Centre, we’ve seen hundreds of weddings evolve over the years, and if there’s one thing that never goes out of style, it’s intention. This year’s most inspiring trends pair beautifully with Bellamere’s classic countryside setting, bringing together elegance, warmth, and personal connection.
Nature-Inspired Everything
Fresh Air, Real Flowers, Natural Textures
Outdoor ceremonies and receptions are continuing to grow in popularity, not just because they’re beautiful but because they feel grounding. Couples in 2025 are embracing natural elements in every detail. Think greenery-heavy floral installations, loose bouquets, textured linens, soft candlelight, and wood or stone décor accents.
Bellamere’s countryside backdrop — from its tree-lined drive to its cobblestone patios — offers a stunning canvas. And when the weather isn’t on your side, the indoor ceremony spaces still reflect that natural, welcoming charm without sacrificing style.
Live Music and Interactive Entertainment
Celebrations That Sound (and Feel) Like You
Couples are layering their events with music that moves with the moment. A string trio for the ceremony. Acoustic guitar during cocktail hour. A live percussionist joining the DJ later in the night. This year, entertainment is becoming more dynamic and tailored.
Bellamere’s exclusive partnership with Alpha DJ Company means you get experienced professionals who know how to build energy and read the room. Whether you want soft background music or a full dance party, they’ll craft the soundtrack of your wedding story.
Statement Ceilings and Lighting
All Eyes Up
In 2025, ceilings are no longer an afterthought. From floating florals to hanging lanterns, couples are drawing the eye upward and creating an immersive visual experience. It’s a trend that adds instant drama without overcrowding your tables or floor plan.
With Bellamere’s high, exposed-beam ceilings and twinkle lights, you already have a head start. Our planning team collaborates with florists and designers to make sure your lighting and ceiling elements feel cohesive, classic, and truly magical.
Thoughtfully Custom Touches
Less Flash, More Meaning
One of the most consistent wedding trends in 2025? Personalization with heart. Couples are including their pets in the ceremony, designing signature cocktails that reflect their personalities, and incorporating heirloom items into the décor.
Bellamere’s all-inclusive package gives you space to include those meaningful details without adding more work. From custom wine labels (exclusive to Bellamere couples) to personalized seating plans and family-style menus, we help you make it yours — not just a version of what’s trendy.
Guest-Centric Design
Because Everyone Matters
Your guests aren’t just guests. They’re your people. And more couples this year are asking, “How can we take care of them?”
That means cozy seating lounges, shaded outdoor cocktail areas, custom welcome drinks, and well-marked signage. At Bellamere, we think of everything — from accessibility to temperature comfort — so every guest feels seen and celebrated.
With our spacious grounds and flexible layouts, it’s easy to design a day that flows beautifully from one moment to the next, keeping your guests relaxed and engaged.
Editorial-Style Photography
Candid Moments in Classic Spaces
Editorial photography is leading the way in 2025. Think natural light, documentary-style candids, and shots that feel like stills from a film. Couples want real emotion captured in timeless ways.
Bellamere’s setting offers endless opportunities. Our cobblestone paths, grand stone fireplaces, covered patios, and countryside views are designed for moments that don’t need a filter. And because every corner is camera-ready, your photos will feel genuine and artful without staging.
Earth-Tone Palettes and Natural Florals
Colour That Feels Grounded
Say goodbye to harsh contrasts and bold brights. 2025 is all about earthy, inviting palettes: terracotta, sage, oatmeal, rust, and soft clay pinks. These tones bring warmth to every detail, from bridesmaid dresses to tablescapes.
Bellamere’s wood and stone finishes pair beautifully with these colours. Whether you’re decorating Kindred Hall with hanging eucalyptus or choosing pale roses for an outdoor ceremony, our neutral backdrop lets your florals and palettes shine.
Pre-Ceremony Guest Experiences
Setting the Tone Early
A growing number of couples are offering guests a thoughtful welcome experience before the ceremony even begins. Think sparkling water stations, warm cider in the fall, or welcome signage that tells your love story.
Bellamere’s team makes this easy to coordinate. We love setting up a custom welcome table near the entrance or offering refreshments at the covered patio while guests mingle. These little details build connection and ease — and set the tone for a day that’s about joy, not rushing.
Intimate Moments in Spacious Settings
Private, Personal, and Still Grand
Bigger doesn’t always mean better. In 2025, couples are opting for fewer formalities and more personal moments, even within larger guest counts. Private first looks, hand-written notes exchanged before the ceremony, or quiet dinners before the reception starts — these moments matter.
Bellamere’s layout is ideal for carving out intimate moments without feeling isolated. Quiet corners of the Winery, fire-lit patios, and private suites allow you to pause, reflect, and soak it all in together.
