Gold and Wooden Accents
To elevate the decor and add a touch of opulence to a modern Filipiniana wedding, couples are incorporating gold and wooden accents.
Gold accents can be seen in elements like tableware, candleholders, and even stationery. These shimmering touches bring a sense of luxury and richness to the overall aesthetic.
Wooden accents, on the other hand, introduce a natural and rustic element. They can be used in various aspects of the decor, including place card holders, signage, and table settings. The combination of gold and wood creates a harmonious balance between opulence and authenticity, further enhancing the visual appeal of the wedding.

Rattan and Capiz Elements
Rattan and capiz shell elements play a pivotal role in modern Filipiniana weddings' décor, infusing the ambiance with a sense of natural beauty and sustainability.
Rattan is used to craft unique pieces of furniture and décor items like chairs, lamps, and arches. These rustic elements add warmth and charm to the wedding venue. Capiz shells, known for their translucent beauty, adorn various decorative pieces, such as chandeliers, table centerpieces, and even invitations. Their delicate glow casts a soft and romantic ambiance, contributing to the overall elegance of the event. These natural materials perfectly complement the modern Filipiniana aesthetic, bringing a touch of eco-chic to the celebration.

Attire
The attire chosen by the bride and groom plays a pivotal role in setting the tone for a modern Filipiniana wedding. The bride and groom often wear modern interpretations of traditional Filipino attire.
The groom looks striking in a Barong Tagalog, crafted from pristine white fabric, symbolizing purity and unity. The timeless embroidery and intricate details of the Barong are accentuated against the backdrop of white, creating a look that is both traditional and contemporary.

For the bride, a Filipiniana gown in soft nude tones is a perfect choice. The gown retains the classic butterfly sleeves (panuelo) but introduces a modern silhouette with its nude color. Subtle embellishments and delicate embroidery are beautifully showcased against the neutral palette, creating a bride who radiates elegance and cultural pride. The combination of white and nude in the bride and groom's attire represents the harmony between tradition and modernity.
These modern takes on classic attire are the epitome of elegance with a twist.
