Planning SOS
| Q | What upcoming wedding trends should we look out for? |
| A | Emma Gold says: A trend we're seeing more and more of is the hotel buyout; couples are keen for total exclusivity and privacy for their guests. It's no longer enough to take a few rooms or event spaces for the day or the weekend. Guests are taking over entire hotels going forward, allowing guests to spend quality downtime together too. From a logistical perspective, it's hugely helpful in ensuring guests are at the right place and time. AI-generated wedding speeches have been around for some time, and we're now seeing couples use them to help with guest lists and table planning. By entering some key references, AI can generate a plan within moments. Refining the seating plan and the couples' input is still essential. Guests are truly interested in what we do to protect the planet while we party. This may be from something as small as having biodegradable confetti. Our couples are looking at how they can make changes to improve the sustainability of their celebrations. We are often tasked to use local, seasonal plants and flowers indigenous to our area. It extends from environment to social, with many couples not requesting gifts but donations to favourite charities. As we know, food is a huge part of celebrations for many. For our clients, it can be one of the most integral parts or a minor focus, but one requirement never changes – the quality of the ingredients. Guests are asking for hyper-local, provenance-traceable ingredients that speak for themselves. |
