Your Kent Wedding - July/August 2023 (Issue 109)

Samantha Richards from A Touch of Kent (www.atouchofkent.com) says, “Hues of autumnal colours are trending in mass proportions this year! Using aspects of wood, floods of candles and burnt oranges through table linen or florals will create the desired aesthetic.” Image courtesy of A Touch of Kent © www.candcimagery.co.uk Feel inspired by 2023’s trending venue styling themes are made of this SWEET THEMES Image courtesy of The Old Kent Barn © www.olegssamsonovsphotography.com Image courtesy of The Creative Venue © www.danielluke.co.uk Rust Image courtesy of The Old Kent Barn © www.olegssamsonovsphotography.com Kylie Christie, marketing manager at the Old Kent Barn (www.theoldkentbarn.co.uk) says, “Consider rust-coloured linens for tablecloths, table runners or napkins and incorporate natural textures and materials like wood, hessian or muslins. If you want to add a metallic element, copper or gold accents such as candle holders, vases or table numbers alongside warm-coloured florals, mixed with earthy neutral tones work beautifully together. “You can even choose a neutral-style wedding cake and incorporate your theme by adding rust accents in the shape of silk ribbons and metallic detailing, bringing everything together for a complete look.” Claire Smith from The Creative Venue (http://www.thecreativevenue.info) says, “We’re loving the rust vibe and our new rust chiffon, has really taken off this season. Together with garnet, burnt orange, coral shades and touches of pampas, it provides the perfect base to create a sumptuous autumn look. But, it’s such a warm colour that it would work equally well in a summer theme with ivory, coral and natural tones.” VENUE STYLING 57
