Trend 1: '50s Flair

This trend is starting in late 2009 and is continuing on into 2010. The decade of  fashion is still making its way on television sets as "Mad Men" and "Bold and the Beautiful". On the latest Logan Family wedding, Katie, played by Heather Tom, wore a 50's inspired tea-length dress. Always a classic look with high necklines, tulle skirts, and tea-length styles, bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses are sure to be a trend setter for 2010 weddings.

Trend 2: Bits of Black

Black has always been a popular wedding color and now using black as a accent color will be a promiment in 2010. Black piping or accents in wedding dresses and in bridesmaids dresses. 


Trend 3: The Bold Shoulder
