But , how do you bring brown into your big day ? Read on to discover how to include Mocha Mousse in your nuptials …
Decadent decor
Probably the most obvious way to incorporate the Mocha Mousse movement into your wedding day is to surround yourself with the colour through your decor choices .
This could be choosing a venue where the colour is already prominent – stately homes and country houses are famed for their wood paneling and brown backdrops , so consider these for a ready-made vibe . Barn venues are also perfect for this look – with their rustic beams and country-chic styling , they lend themselves to the soft brown hues associated with the Mocha Mousse trend .

But , even a venue where brown isn ’ t the prominent colourway can be transformed into a bronzed oasis . From tablescaping to adding props and accessories , there are hundreds of ways you can bring this colour scheme to life even when you ’ re working within spaces that don ’ t offer up an immediate base for the brown theme .
