There are so many venue options when it comes to modern weddings. Lofts and rooftops are popular choices for this wedding style, but we like the idea of mixing it up a little by exchanging your vows at a museum, distillery or even a nightclub.

Bold signage is everything at a modern wedding—the larger, the better!

Need vendors for your modern wedding? These pros specialize in this style.

The modern wedding style is typically very clean and sleek with a minimal color palette and some metallic details. Wedding attire is sophisticated and chic and the florals are often monochromatic or greenery-heavy. Think bold lines or geometric designs when it comes to the overall décor details 

A modern wedding style is refined and simple, but daring. It's typically a formal vibe and we see a lot of white and black with modern weddings, but also bold colors like teal, eggplant and fuschia. The décor often features florals like calla lilies or dahlias, as well as ghost chairs, Edison bulbs, neon signs and greenery walls. The fashion is a big component of modern weddings—we love a fearless colored suit or backless sheath gown.

These wedding videos will give you the inspiration for all your modern wedding, plus the vendors and brands who can make them happen.
