Are you getting married this year? No double you'll be interested to hear the latest wedding trends for 2012.

Fashion

This year blush and rose colored dress are replacing the traditional white dress and floor length gowns have given way to cocktail length dresses. Expect to see dresses inspired by Kate Middletown.

Additional trends include bolero jackets, crinkle chiffon skirts, ornate belts, cap sleeves and bustier-style bodices.

And the latest trend in bridesmaids dresses? Pockets. Pockets sewn into the dresses are a convenient and discreet way for bridesmaids to carry what they need on the wedding day.

Accessories

In 2012, the tiara has been replaced by vintage inspired birdcage veils, and dying shoes are a thing of the past. Instead pick shoes that make an impression, like red heels, or shoes that match your wedding colors. This year's hot colors are vibrant shades such as tangerine.

Food

Serve your guests cupcakes during the cocktail hour, but not the sugary kind found at kids' birthday parties. Instead, the flavors are more upscale. Expect flavors like lobster and cheese with chive in the icing.

For wedding cakes, expect traditional decorating on the outside and nontraditional flavors on the inside. Flavors will be chosen that match the season. An autumn wedding, for example, would serve pumpkin cake.

Other In Trends for 2012

While weddings are often a time of excess, being environmentally friendly will be all the rage in 2012. Print invitations on recycled paper. Make your own centerpieces by reusing old materials. Use only locally grown flowers. Take an environmentally friendly honeymoon.

Church weddings are out and location weddings are in as couples increasingly wish to customize their ceremonies. Another way to customize your wedding is to pick a nontraditional location for your reception. Fire halls and country clubs are out while interesting venues, such as museums, are in.

Staying on budget instead of going overboard will be popular this year. Do it yourself is the last trend in wedding decorations. Almost all wedding decorations and accessories can be made yourself if you have the time and the talent.

And, remember, no matter what you decided to do with your wedding this year, it's your wedding. Make sure to have fun and do what makes you and your fiancé happy.
