What's the latest in wedding trends? Find out what some couples are doing here.

Make it a weekend affair: A lot of planning goes into your wedding, so why not enjoy it for an entire weekend instead of just one day? A current trend is to plan wedding activities that span the entire weekend instead of just one evening. Activities can include welcome dinners, cocktail hours or casual gatherings.

Keep it small: A lot of couples are opting to forgo the big, expensive weddings and are instead choosing to have smaller, more intimate weddings.

Go metallic: Metallic accents are making a bang in weddings. When adding some sparkle and glitz to your wedding, think beyond gold and silver.

Give gifts outside of the reception: Some couples are opting to get creative when giving out party favors to their guests. Some are having them placed inside guests' hotel rooms so they get them when they return, or you could also have them placed in each guest's car if you are offering valet services.
