In recent years, fashion trends have turned to nature, environmental friendliness, naturalness and simplicity. But what if you adore the atmosphere of a big city and your soul does not lie in the beauties of nature? A wedding should reflect your tastes and attitude, so Urban Chic is at your service! In this article, we will tell you what are the features of an Urban Chic wedding, how to choose the right location and decor, and, of course, how an Urban style bride should look.
Urban chic wedding: the main feature is the format
Freedom-loving and daring Urban-chic dictates its own rules — this style is unlikely to suit stiff official banquets. Such a wedding is more like a party with friends and family, where everyone has fun and relax, rather than thinking about the intricacies of table etiquette.
Therefore, we advise you to focus on the buffet and entertainment program. And so that guests do not leave the wedding hungry, you can allocate a separate area for food. Look for inspiration in street food festivals — visitors eat there without interrupting the fun 🙂
Location
Where to have an urban chic wedding? Let’s be logical: in the city 🙂 We give you several options, but do not limit yourself in experiments:
Restaurant
Classic variant. Ideally with panoramic windows and city views. Pay attention to the interior: it should be modern. Urban chic in a Ukrainian restaurant with towels and wickerwork is pretty funny eclecticism, right?


atmospheric bar
Fortunately, in Ukraine there is no shortage of establishments with original interiors and wow-concepts. Take the same “Youth” in Odessa — there is such a thoughtful and unusual design that a wedding decorator risks being left without a job 🙂
Outdoor area on the roof
How to do without a gorgeous view of the city? The wedding ceremony will literally take place on top! But make sure you have a backup plan in case of bad weather. For example, hold only a ceremony in an open area, and the main holiday is inside the restaurant, or keep a awning and warm blankets ready for guests.
Urban chic wedding colors
Free-spirited Urban chic begs for unusual color palettes! We have selected several options for you.
- Copper, ivory, wet asphalt
A classic combination for an urban chic wedding is expensive colors on a dark background.
- Emerald, gold, cream, black
A rich palette, if in Urban you like the “chic” part more 🙂
- Porcelain, rose quartz, light gray
A more gentle combination, if the echoes of the Dramatic style are not for you.
- White, canary, raspberry, dark green
Light and juicy shades in contrast with more neutral natural motifs.
Decor and decoration of the wedding hall in the style of Urban Chic
Undoubtedly, decor is responsible for the atmosphere, so it needs to be taken seriously. We’ve put together a list of details that will set the right mood for your Urban Chic wedding.
How is it without him? Bright neon signs are associated with a big city, which is exactly what we need. You can order a neon hashtag for your wedding or general phrases that will convey the mood of the holiday. By the way, we wrote a detailed article about neon signs, don’t forget to read it.
Incorrect lighting will destroy the most thoughtful decor, and good lighting will decorate the wedding venue without additional elements. Urban chic allows you to use bright lighting in any color, so don’t be afraid to experiment. The main thing is not to overdo it so that the guests do not get a headache from the abundance of colors 🙂
Glass, concrete, metal — all this conveys the atmosphere of the metropolis. In some ways, this has something in common with the wedding in the Industrial style, so you can borrow decor ideas from there. But remember that urban chic requires more luxury and sophistication.
Sharp corners and straight lines are very urban chic. You can use geometric shapes everywhere, from invitations and table decorations, to arches and cakes.
Monstera and fern leaves will fit perfectly into the style of Urban Chic. And if you love everything bright and unusual, we suggest embodying it in decor wedding trend 2020 and add color to them: a can of gold, silver or hot pink paint will turn plants into a real art installation!


Do not forget that this style is not only about the atmosphere of the city, but also about chic 🙂 Gold elements in the decor will add richness to the design, if not overdone — for example, you can use cutlery in this color, napkin rings or placemats. Also, matte black looks luxurious, but not flashy, in decor, so think about that too.
Bridal look in urban chic style
An urban chic wedding opens up an unprecedented scope for experimenting with your image. And we have prepared several options for you to make it easier to catch inspiration and feel the style of the romance of the big city.
Restrained chic
A white silk dress with thin straps and heeled sandals is an image-illustration of the phrase “Less is More”, which fits perfectly into the style of Urban chic. Complete it with bright red lipstick, a neat bun and massive jewelry, and in the evening borrow a jacket from the groom 🙂
Minimalism
An Urban Chic wedding is more like a wild party than a reception at the Queen of England, so feel free to shorten your dress! Believe me, all the guests already remember that you are the bride, so they will recognize you even without a puffy floor-length dress. Add solemnity to the image with sequins, feathers, bright hair ornaments. We only advise you to stay on a white dress — let’s leave at least something traditional 🙂
Suit instead of dress
The trend of recent years is the rejection of a puffy dress for a stylish trouser suit. Not all brides want to be princesses on a day like this, so why limit yourself to tradition? If you feel uncomfortable in a classic dress or want to add a bit of outrageousness, designers offer you a huge number of options for overalls and trouser wedding suits. Add to this chic pumps and a bright make-up — and a stylish original look is ready. Such experiments are very Urban style 🙂
Groom look in urban chic style
Unshakable classic
What could be better than a classic black tuxedo? This groom’s outfit will look stylish if you choose a discreet look. But how chic will look the contrast of his tuxedo with your cheeky mini dress and eye-catching makeup! All in all, it’s an absolutely win-win option.


urban dandy
Option for a more relaxed mood. Here you can experiment with colors and mood of the image. You can choose from a completely informal suit, or add only one detail — for example, white sneakers instead of formal shoes or a bright jacket.
