    InStyle Weddings Lists Top Five Celebrity Wedding Trends

    Here we go, all you celeb-watching brides-to-be! There are five hot, new trends coming out of Tinseltown, so print this out and make the necessary changes in your wedding plans!

    Trend #1: Fertilizable centerpieces! Instead of small, monochromatic centerpieces (so yesterday!) or lots of little centerpieces on one table, lets build a landscape in the middle of those tables. Think "bead-strewn crystal candelabras, potted herbs and even natural motifs like mushrooms." We're talking Hollywood here, so we can only imagine what kind of "potted herbs" they're putting out there.

    Trend #2: Over-the-top veils. Everything old is new again. Veils, once thought too old-fashioned, are making a comeback with celebrities in a big way. The mag suggests you can choose to wear the veil "even during the reception!" If you do, they recommend you pick a shorter style. Either way, I suspect you'll be ripping it off by the time your plate of food arrives.

    Trend #3: Groom's Cake on steroids. The movie "Steel Magnolias" made this southern tradition a huge trend, and now it's grooms-gone-wild! The groom's cake should have some connection to the groom, so we're looking at cakes shaped like golf bags, college mascots, beer mugs and TV sets. Very nice...

    Trend #4: Global-Inspired Wedding Favors. The stars are celebrating their hometowns or their heritage with wedding favors like candy apples (New York City,) hot sauce (Mexico) or olive oil (Italy.) Not only do the favors have special meaning--they're more likely to be used when the guests take them home.

    Trend #5: Formal First Dance: The TV show "Dancing with the Stars" is having an effect on weddings from New York to California. Stars are turning to choreographers to stage their first dance to make it spectacular entertainment. InStyle recommends that you start planning your dance six months prior to your wedding date so you can "choose your special song, the type of dance you want and take lessons!" The mag also reminds you to practice your dance in your wedding gown instead of jeans. Makes sense.

    Okay. That's a wrap. Head for MyWeddingFavors.com to find lots of meaningful, global-inspired wedding favors, and then you can take off for your dance class...
