Explore 5 popular wedding styles—luxe, modern, romantic, classic, and coastal—and discover how to choose a wedding design that reflects your vision.
As you begin planning your wedding, you start to notice what draws you in.
Certain images you pause on. Details you save without overthinking. A feeling you cannot quite put into words, yet you know it when you see it.
A wedding is not defined by a single moment, but by the way the entire day unfolds. The quiet anticipation while getting ready. The familiar voices fill the room. The pause before you walk down the aisle. The feeling of seeing each other for the first time. These are the moments that stay with you.
Somewhere within those moments is your style.
Not simply how your wedding will look, but how it will feel. The atmosphere you are creating. The experience you are inviting your guests into. The tone that carries from beginning to end.
When your style becomes clear, everything else begins to fall into place. Decisions feel more natural. The design feels cohesive. The entire day begins to take shape in a way that feels aligned.
This is why we’ve curated five styles to help couples find their true wedding style. One that is timeless and uniquely them.
Luxe Wedding Style
Elevated. Intentional. Designed to leave a lasting impression.
A luxe wedding is centered around experience. Every detail is considered, layered, and designed to feel immersive from the moment guests arrive to the final farewell.
This style often leans into statement design, refined materials, and a level of service that allows the day to unfold seamlessly.
What defines this style:
- Statement pieces that anchor the design and create a clear focal point
- An intentional flow that guides the day from one moment to the next
- A thoughtful focus on how guests move, gather, and experience each space
- Layers of texture paired with rich, refined color palettes
This style is for couples who want their wedding to feel like more than a celebration. It becomes an experience guests will remember for a lifetime.

Clean. Refined. Thoughtfully minimal.

What defines this style:
- One-of-a-kind table shapes and thoughtfully designed layouts
- A bold, expressive approach to color
- A strong emphasis on musical entertainment and energy throughout the evening
This style is ideal for couples who are drawn to trends and want their wedding to feel current and yet timeless too.
