Though 2018 may have had not one but two royal weddings, we can expect so much more wedding excitement in 2019! Because of the past year’s wedding fever, there are tons of unique ideas and options available to you when you’re planning your special day. Here are some of the most Top Wedding Trends of 2019 in engagement rings and wedding planning.

1. Modern Three-Stone Rings

You can thank Princess Meghan Markle and Prince Harry for this engagement ring trend. Three-stone rings, as you might have guessed, feature one gem in the center with a diamond or gemstone on either side of it. The three stones are said to represent the couple’s past, present, and future. This year, you can expect to see this type of fashionable TwoBirch ring take on more contemporary features, like nontraditional diamond shapes, thin bands, and unique accent gemstones.

2. A Comeback of Simple Wedding Dresses

Minimalism is the name of the game when it comes to weddings dresses this year. Simple, classic dress designs are all the rage in 2019. The key to nailing this look for your special day is choosing the silhouette that is best suited to your body shape and getting the dress tailored to fit correctly.

3. Pear-Shaped Stones

One of the most significant trends this year will be non-round stones, and specifically pear-shaped one, for engagement rings. Everyone, even celebrities like Priyanka Chopra, Hailey Bieber, and Cardi B, has been gravitating toward nontraditional shaped stones. Instead of the classic round diamond, consider choosing a unique pear, oval, or cushion diamond.

4. Coral Colors

Pantone has already declared “Living Coral” the color of the year, so expect to see it a lot in upcoming weddings. This bright pinkish-orange shade is perfect to incorporate in your late spring or summer wedding. This cheery color will be featured in everything from bridesmaid dresses to makeup, flowers to cakes.

5. Yellow Gold Bands

This is yet another wedding trend that may be credited to Meghan Markle; the yellow-gold ring is headed for a comeback. Today’s brides are choosing the same type of metal that their mothers used in their jewelry, but instead of a straight throwback to the ’80s, brides are choosing to elevate the yellow gold to the modern day. This metal is so versatile that it looks great with both colored gemstones and diamonds and virtually every setting, so don’t be afraid to get creative with this trend.

6. Vintage-Inspired Engagement Rings

Going hand in hand with the yellow gold rings, vintage rings are coming back this year in a big way. So many chic couples are looking to the past to find engagement rings that express their individuality. The rare and classic vintage ring designs have a truly one of a kind look. It is appealing to those with unique styles. Plus, vintage rings serve as a connection to your past and family history, all while looking to the new future you are building with your significant other.
