"Stop looking around, and make him your something blue. Yes, coral and dusty rose are classy calls, but I have a feeling that shades of blue are going to keep things nice and cool for the Summer heat." — Nathan Bellah, director of marketing at Generation Tux

"The norm is dead. Be you, and let your wedding match. I definitely see this as a year for brides and grooms to let their personalities shine.

Gray with a touch of anything is sure to complement that wedding gown." — Nathan Bellah, director of marketing at Generation Tux

"In 2019, we predict the classic and timeless solitaire engagement ring to gain popularity . . . but with a 'twist.' Adding just a little flair to a solitaire can really give it the extra wow factor! This solitaire with a twist keeps the ring timeless but gives it more dimension, and in turn, a little extra sparkle, taking a ring so many have and making it more unique and eye-catching. You can add a little twist to your solitaire in so many different ways, choosing yellow gold or rose gold, adding a milgrain detail to the band, or like this ring here, with a literal twist! What is important in the solitaire is keeping the center diamond as the focal point. But explore — make your solitaire unique and special to you." — Kaeleigh Testwuide of The Diamond Reserve

"When it comes to engagement rings and weddings bands, less metal is more! Single shared prong diamond settings allows for just that, which means all diamonds. What so many love about single shared prong diamond settings is the illusion of the diamonds floating, as there is barely any metal visible from the top viewpoint of the ring. This style can be done with many different shaped diamonds and sizes. Having single shared prong diamonds in you setting or your wedding band will give it a timeless yet unique look." — Kaeleigh Testwuide of The Diamond Reserve

"All the talk about Princess Eugenie's stunning and rare pink padparadscha sapphire engagement ring is sure to boost confidence in choosing an alternative center stone for an engagement ring! Choosing a sapphire, topaz, opalescent, or gray rose-cut diamond can allow for a unique look that will separate you from the rest." — Kaeleigh Testwuide of The Diamond Reserve

"Perhaps our favorite way of injecting a rainbow of color into your nuptials is with smoke bombs. You may have seen these eye-catching photos all over Instagram — and there's no sign of these smoke signals stopping any time soon! Besides using them as a cool addition to photos, couples can also consider using them to accent their outdoor ceremony recessional. Just think: your first kiss as newlyweds, a burst of beautiful colors, and the most extra walk back down the aisle of all time. We're here for it!" — Jenna Miller, creative director at Here Comes the Guide
