Tired Wedding Trends: Which ones are you sick of, or are doing anyway?

While Pinterest is wonderful for inspiration, I think it has ruined basically everything "unique" about weddings today.

While Pinterest is wonderful for inspiration, I think it has ruined basically everything "unique" about weddings today. You see something on there and you think "OH HOW CUTE" only to find about 3 of your friends are also doing the same thing for their weddings. Which trends are you sick of and which ones are you doing anyway?

I am sick of:

Signature drinks - They are sugary and questionable; give me a margarita already!

Cusite signs for ring bearers/flower girls - If there is a tot walking down the aisle, we know their role.

Signs EVERYWHERE - Other than "Parking" and "Restroom" everything should be self explanatory.

Vintage furniture randomly sitting around with stuff on them - Is this a yard sale?

What I am doing anyway:

I am making a chalkboard display out of an antique door to detail the menu, bridal party, and procession of the evening - I am saving paper.

Burlap silverware pouches - I want the satisfaction of making them myself, then reselling them.

    I have been to three weddings in less than a year and EACH bride got her 'inspiration' from Pinterest. Each wedding reception had burlap, used chalkboard spray paint on something, mason jars, lanterns and signs. There was nothing 'unique' because it's been done. Do you really need a sign telling guests where the bar is or the location of the bathroom?
