The trendiest collection of glass, lucite and acrylic wedding decor and details ever! Plus a DIY and some fab tips! Read on!

Breathtaking acrylic wedding invitations. You will treasure them forever! Via Etsy from Madrid, Spain.

It’s no secret that we are fans of the modern, fresh and minimalistic aesthetic. So, it was only a matter of time before we would gather a TD (to die for) round up of acrylic wedding decor and details. We also decided we would share how to DIY a couple of these beauties, so that’s included on this article as well. As usual, take notes and copy away!

Translucent and reflective surfaces are the rising stars in wedding decor ideas for the upcoming year. Lucite, glass and acrylic grant a modern, urban and industrial vibe to any wedding theme. Turned into mirrored or hand-painted surfaces, they add glitz and glam while staying on the affordable luxury side.

First of all, let’s find out what’s the difference between these materials. Nothing like a bit of knowledge to shop for the right thing, am i right?

Welcome your guests with a timeline of your wedding and a beautiful clear acrylic wedding welcome sign. Get it on Etsy from Austin, TX.

So, Is there a Difference between Lucite and Acrylic?

When it comes time to shop for these acrylic wedding decor and details you’ll be faced with a choice materials. And you’ll wonder, what is the difference between Lucite and acrylic? Aren’t they the same see-through plastic?

Well, yes. But Lucite or Plexiglas are brand names for a high quality acrylic manufactured by DuPont. Regular acrylic is less expensive but easier to crack. Some acrylic is low quality and may not be as clear as a higher quality acrylic plastic, such as Lucite. Of course, these are wedding signs and not a permanent fixture, so more often than not, you’ll be good with regular quality acrylic.

Acrylic Wedding Invitations: Pros and Cons

If you are planning on hand delivering your invites, you should definitely consider acrylic wedding invitations. They are downright gorgeous and much less expensive than stamped gold foil or thermography. Often times, even less expensive than digital printing! On the downside, they can easily shatter – so you have to mail them in bubble wrap – and they could be terribly heavy. Consider the cost of mailing them before you indulge in these beauties. Personally, we love acrylic wedding invitations with a box. Don’t you?

Take a look at these acrylic wedding invitations for an immediate association with art. Screen printed enamel ink and hand painted acrylic for a pastel modern Miami art museum wedding. A perfect pairing of invite and venue.

New Wedding Ideas: Lucite Wedding Cake Toppers & Tables

On top of the wedding cake or under it, these acrylic wedding details will leave you (and your guests) breathless! You can DIY your own cake topper with the design of your dreams. If you go for a wedding cake table, feel free to add cool LED lights or flowers. It will look divine!

Make sure there is enough space on top of the votives so they don’t heat up the acrylic cake table.

2018 Wedding Trends: Goodbye Rustic! Welcome Woodland Weddings and Boho Folk!

We had enough of the barns and the rustic country themes. The 2018 wedding trends mark a change towards the ultra romantic vintage glam, the boho folk and the fairytale-like enchanted forest woodland outdoor weddings.

Imagine lounge areas with vintage furniture you got from the nearby flea-market, weddings in the desert or at the beach with boho folk touches, and majestic mountains as your ceremony background. Wow, am i right?

2018 wedding trends that steal our hearts. Ultra romantic Emperador color bridal gown at the modern Oviatt Penthouse rooftop in Los Angeles, California.

2018 Wedding Trends: The Marriage of Ultra Romantic Vintage and Modern Industrial Spaces

This is my favorite of the 2018 wedding trends. It’s one of those mashups you wouldn’t think they would work together but they do! And how! If you want to follow this trend, pick a raw space as a wedding venue. The more unique, the better.

Think museums, libraries, lofts, warehouses or renovated factory buildings. These venues usually feature exposed brick walls and aluminum pipes and it really adds up to the charm. And if you want to have a wedding with a view in the city, go for the latest trend and pick a rooftop! 😉

Now, turn it into the most ultra romantic wedding of your dreams with the vintage decor of your choice. No need to fill every nook and cranny with furniture either. Go minimalistic and allow their vast industrial spaces to shine and allow your guests to mingle. You won’t be disappointed!

It’s not just vintage, it’s ultra romantic vintage. To build this glorious centerpiece get a hold of a silver teapot, pearls, perfume bottles, lace, teacups, succulents and an empty frame.

2018 Wedding Trends: Nature Wedding Decoration Takes a Step Forward

Greenery in not going anywhere in 2018. And in line with the ultra romantic vintage wedding theme, flowers are making a comeback. Especially pink and dark red dogwood flowers. Not only because of their dark moody colors (also ultra trendy) but due to its meaning. According to a Victorian tradition, the couple would signal love with the gift of a bloom from this tree.

And it’s all about bringing the outdoors, indoors. Hanging hoops with foliage and flowers, glass bell jars and cloche domes with moss and greenery table wreaths.

More nature: we will see marble and copper on dance floors, living food stations wth potted plants and even as wedding ceremony backgrounds. This marble and copper 2018 wedding combination is simple, elegant and unique.

Wedding wreaths are the new ceremony arch in 2018.

2018 Wedding Trends: Moody Colors will Reign even in the Spring

Now that Pantone named Ultra Violet the color of the year, it’s official, moody colors are it! Imbued with an association to love and passion, we will see them adding a glam look to the wedding party and to the reception decor.

Bridesmaids can show off a fashionable, almost black, Ultra Violet dress, Groomsmen can add this color to their ties, hankies or suits. And there is nothing more elegant than Ultra Violet candles, both pillar or tapered, depending on the effect you want to achieve.

Of course, all moody colors like dark red, moody blue or the new Pantone’s Emperador and Chili Oil, can be used to include these 2018 wedding trends.

2018 Wedding Trends: Intimate Weddings where Guest Experience is Paramount

While the trend is towards a more minimalistic style, wedding budgets have remained the same. Why? Well… couple’s priorities have changed.
