Anthropologie Weddings Releases Results of First Comprehensive Bridal Survey, Produced by Vogue with Anthropologie

Coming together to create a definitive guide to wedding style for the full bridal journey, the two leading bridal brands polled more than
2,000 people from the Vogue insiders,
as well as
customers of Anthropologie and
fellow brands at URBN Inc.
By analyzing data collected from currently engaged and recently married brides, anthropologie weddings set out to understand how style and fashion fit into the wedding planning process, ultimately dissecting current trends, curating a
start-to-finish
wedding wardrobe, and
outlining
the essentials for 2023 celebrations.

'We are thrilled to release the results of our first Anthropologie Weddings bridal survey,'
said
Elizabeth Preis, Chief Marketing Officer of Anthropologie. 'As social media continues its primacy in sharing the most important moments of our lives, we have taken note that the curation of the full wedding experience has increased
in
popularity. To best serve the needs of today's modern bride,
we wanted to utilize both Anthropologie's and Vogue's marketplace influence
to better understand the desired styles and trends,
brides'
expectations,
and how we can be the best resource as
they
move through the different stages of their bridal journey.'

Top results in the Anthropologie
Weddings
x Vogue survey include:

• Of those surveyed, there is increased interest in multiple events throughout the bridal journey with 2/3 of our respondents noting that they are planning for 4 additional events outside of the wedding day, with the four most popular being engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner, the honeymoon, and a bachelorette party .
  
• The number 1 wedding theme is 'romantic' with over 35% of our respondents stating they were planning or recently had a 'romantic' themed wedding, yet the 'bohemian' theme is on the rise amongst our engaged
  bride-to-be's.
  
• The trend of multiple wedding dresses
  is still significant with nearly half of the respondents having 2 or more dresses for their wedding ceremony and reception. Of those dresses, both the mermaid and ballgown style silhouettes are preferred with A-line on the rise and sited as the most popular amongst our engaged bride-to-be survey group.
  
• In an overwhelming response, accessories, shoes, and jewelry, play a major part in the overall bridal look with well over half of our respondents noting that they plan to purchase new accessories to complement their dresses for all events leading up to the wedding.
  
• 63% of all those who responded are planning to have a bridal party size of 5 or more, and of that group, 22% stating they will have a bridal party size of more than 10.
  

Additional
findings from the report, which provides
comprehensive data
and

will be released in a three-part sponsored series on
