{Wedding Trends} : Chevron, Chevron & More Chevron

Feeling a little more modern these days?  Well, let me introduce you to Chevron, also known as zig zag pattern. Chevron is a a uber-popular pattern these days.  It’s being printed on everything from fashion to interior decor. And of course it has made a huge splash onto weddings. I personally can’t get enough of it!  And it's no wonder why; chevron isn't only a great way to add a modern twist to your wedding details and decor, but it also creates clean lines and adds a fun pop of color.  It’s the perfect accent for a classic and preppy wedding or for a fete that’s a bit non-traditional, too.  I'm a big fan of the black and white combo with splashes of gold… very glamorous! 
There are millions of ways to incorporate it into your nuptials – from stationery to bridesmaid dresses and even pretty favors! Here are a few ideas of how to use this fun print at your big day. Enjoy! (image source)



Decor.  The easiest way to incorporate a print into your wedding is in the decor. Napkins, linens and pillows are a fun  way to tie in your colors and theme. (images source: first, second, third)
