Top Wedding Trends in Los Angeles in 2025 (And How to Make Them Your Own)
If you're planning a wedding in Los Angeles, you're in one of the most trend-setting cities in the world—especially when it comes to weddings. From bold fashion choices to intimate, intentional guest experiences, couples in 2025 are all about doing things their own way.
As a Los Angeles wedding planner, I’ve seen firsthand how couples are elevating tradition with modern style and meaning. Here’s a breakdown of the top wedding trends in LA for 2025, plus tips on how to personalize each one so it feels like you.
1. Intimate Guest Counts with Luxe Details
More couples are scaling down their guest lists to focus on what matters most—creating an unforgettable experience for their closest people. Smaller weddings allow for elevated design, thoughtful entertainment, and gourmet food and beverage experiences.
Make it your own: Consider a private estate, rooftop venue, or hidden garden in LA that offers a sense of privacy and exclusivity. Add personal touches like handwritten notes, interactive food stations, or curated welcome bags.
2. Fashion-Forward Bridal Looks
L.A. brides are embracing bold bridal fashion: detachable sleeves, statement veils, jumpsuits, and colorful gowns are all on the rise. Grooms and wedding parties are also taking style to the next level with custom tailoring, monochrome palettes, and trend-forward accessories.
Make it your own: Wear a second look for the reception, or incorporate unexpected accessories like gloves, sunglasses, or bold heels. Just remember: the best trend is what makes you feel like your most confident self.
3. Earth-Toned Color Palettes
Neutrals aren’t going anywhere—but in 2025, couples are leaning into rich, earthy tones like terracotta, rust, olive, clay, and muted gold. These colors pair beautifully with the natural California landscape and look stunning in photos.
Make it your own: Use a base of soft neutrals like sand or taupe, then layer in deeper tones through florals, linens, and paper goods. Want something bolder? Add in a pop of deep plum or burnt orange for contrast.
4. Multi-Day Celebrations
Weddings are no longer just a one-day event. Especially for destination weddings or local couples with out-of-town guests, multi-day celebrations are trending—think welcome parties, beach picnics, farewell brunches, or recovery pool days.
Make it your own: Plan a curated weekend itinerary that reflects your personality as a couple. Host a taco truck welcome party in Venice Beach, or a wine tasting in Malibu. We help our couples make it seamless and fun for everyone involved.
5. Editorial-Inspired Photography & Cinematic Video
Gone are the days of overly posed wedding photos. LA couples are opting for editorial-style photography that feels stylish, emotive, and real. Think movement, grain, and storytelling through imagery.
Make it your own: Look for photographers and videographers whose work feels like a story rather than a checklist. Not sure how to find the right fit? We help match our clients with the best creative teams in LA.
Bonus Trend: Sustainable & Local Choices
From zero-waste floral installs to supporting local farms and vendors, Los Angeles couples are becoming more mindful about their wedding’s environmental impact.
Make it your own: Choose seasonal florals, compostable dinnerware, or work with caterers who source ingredients locally. It’s possible to have a chic, beautiful wedding and make choices you feel good about.
