When you’re getting married, one of the most fun things in the planning process is picking out the gifts you’d like for your wedding registry. Now couples who are tying the knot can add Etsy to their list, as they’re launching their own wedding registry service, Etsy Registry. Brides and grooms can select handmade, vintage and personalized items, as well as find wedding decor and bridal party items, all while supporting small businesses.

Along with launching wedding registries, Etsy has just come out with its annual wedding trend guide. These are their hot trends for nuptials in 2023:

  • Lovecore - This includes heart patterns, roses and the colors red and pink and it’s perfect for hopeless romantics. According to Etsy, there’s been a 21% increase in heart-themed invitations, an 18% rise in searches for pink menus and searches for hot pink bridal items are up 19%.
  • Oversized florals - Big flowers are in, with searches on Etsy for floral wedding dresses up by 78%. Searches for 3D flower veils have increased 35% and searches for 3D flower dresses are up 32%, while searches for flower chokers are up 159%.
  • Western weddings - More couples are going western for their big day, as Etsy has seen a 40% increase in searches for western wedding dresses, a 21% boost in searches for fringe dresses and a 19% increase in western wedding items.
  • Love story gifts - Custom gifts that celebrate a couple’s unique love story are also becoming more popular. There’s been a 71% increase in Etsy searches for personalized recipe boxes, a 65% bump in searches for custom couples portraits and a 37% increase in custom song plaques.
  • Other popular wedding trends on Etsy this year are engagement rings and wedding bands with character, statement accessories and creative programs.
