Weddings: What’s Trending

Weddings…everyone wants theirs to be unique, reflecting their own style; and there are a bunch of things that are currently trending which achieve exactly that!

Let’s start with first things first. Many brides are opting for gemstones or lab grown diamonds (which are engineered to match the visual quality and physical properties of mined diamonds, but can be half the cost to up to 70% less expensive) to replace the traditional diamond engagement ring.

Some very cool offerings, which may surprise and delight your guests, are chef assisted fire stations where you can grill your own fruit, zero-proof beverage bars where you can order your favorite mocktail or dial it up for any of your personal favorites with options like a cannoli cart, a shrimp tower or a wall of donuts!

Channel the celebrities with a wild, late night after party for those who dare to attend. Drone photography for candid aerial shots is big now too.

Environmentally conscious? Have an eco-friendly affair where you local source things like food to lower your carbon footprint and then donate leftover food to charities after the event.

Find the next day brunch ho-hum? Offer an alternative such as a wine tasting or pickleball tournament!

And how about off-beat bridal party gifts that they can all appreciate – like maybe custom sneakers or courtside tickets?
