Industrial style wedding

A wedding ceremony is a unique, romantic event, so prepare it with attention to every detail. Introducing a leitmotif will give the reception coherence and make all the elements harmonize perfectly. Not so long ago, the most popular style among brides and grooms was rustic and glamorous. Now the industrial chic wedding ideas are taking the lead and will be a hit in 2022!

Industrial as a wedding theme

The industrial theme is characterized by simplicity and austerity, which can be unique in itself. Concrete, brick and metal are three elements that cannot be missing on an industrial chic wedding. That is why the perfect place for the reception is a loft, an old factory building or a hotel, the interior of which fits into a slightly ascetic climate. The unique character of the reception is created by exposed brick walls, cement floors, mixed metals, factory windows on construction elements and high ceilings. Visible elements of installations, copper pipes or Edison bulbs will be an additional asset in industrial space. Many unusual wedding venues for your ceremony space are created in a kind of warehouse. Sometimes it is decorated with crystal chandeliers as an intricate merge with elegance.

Wedding hall decoration in industrial chic

The old saying “less is more” works perfectly in this case. Raw wooden reception tables with metal chairs will fit perfectly into the style of the wedding. You don’t have to cover them with a tablecloth, napkins in a bold color or those in geometrical shapes will be enough of a decoration. If you want to cover tables, choose black, blank canvas instead of bright colors or detailed ones. Table numbers made out of raw metal can work great to create an industrial look. You can put your flower arrangements in tins painted copper. Use old light bulbs, visible pipes or geometric shapes to decorate the tables in the venue. Soft candlelight will emphasize the uniqueness of the party. A wooden ladder is an original decoration, which will draw the attention of your guests and add industrial feel. 

Outfit in the style

Bride and groom outfit should also match the industrial chic, if this is your theme of choice. In case of the Bride, simple and delicate outfits will be perfect. Geometric shapes are the most appropriate decoration for the style. Copper-colored earrings or a bracelet make an interesting addition.

Industrial interior design 

Industrial chic weddings are original and fascinating in their rawness. I have to say that it is one of the most inspiring trends we will face in 2022. It’s a style characterized by apparent imperfection, raw interiors and spare styling that blends the past with the modern in an intriguing way.

Gently backlit brick or concrete walls, reclaimed wood, tables decorated with some flowers and greenery. What particularly stands out in this style is the lighting: omnipresent candles and hanging bulbs. The dominant accessories are mainly metal and copper.

This style does not impose a particular color of flowers (the color can be adjusted e.g. to accessories, the color of a tablecloth or candles). Candles and accessories in a distinctive color will work great (e.g. navy blue, black with gold), which does not mean that you have to resign from light pastel shades. It is important to keep the greenery compositions minimalistic.

Industrial wedding venue

Choosing an industrial wedding venue can be an activity that requires creativity. A typical wedding hall will definitely not work here. The search should start from unobvious spaces, which at first sight may not even be associated with a place where a wedding can be organized. Old factories, cozy restaurants with white brick walls hidden among old tenement houses, spacious lofts – these are the ones that will guarantee this unique atmosphere. Fortunately, with the growing popularity of this style, the market offers more and more proposals of places stylized or adapted to the preparation of the reception for industrial chic wedding.

Conclusion

The industrial chic is a rather unobvious and austere style, which is unlikely to appeal to brides and grooms dreaming of an idyllic, rustic wedding in a stylized barn. Couples who decide on this theme are certainly unconventional and daring, who want to make their wedding different from others.
