On-the-Day Content Creation

If you’re someone who loves to post social media content to your Instagram, Facebook, or Tik Tok, then this brand-new service that’s on the rise at weddings is for you! A social media creator is booked to show up on the wedding day and create bucket loads of content to mix into tik tok and reels, shooting casual BTS footage so you and your wedding party can be present on the day, rather than spending time on your phones posting footage and images from the wedding.

Audio Guestbooks

Say goodbye to traditional guestbooks! Audio guestbooks are emerging as a unique trend, allowing guests to leave heartfelt messages and well wishes through voice recordings. This interactive and personal touch adds an extra layer of sentimentality to your wedding memories. It’s also a great way for guests to have a bit of fun at your wedding reception and for you to have a laugh or cry listening back to their messages.

Seated Wedding Parties

Move over, standing wedding parties! Why not have your wedding party seated in the first few ceremony rows to allow them to sit all together, or with their partner, and allow you as a couple to be upfront and present for your ceremony?

Cold Fireworks

Sparkling cold fireworks are set to illuminate wedding celebrations in 2024. These breathtaking displays use special effects to create a stunning show without the heat and noise of traditional fireworks. They add a touch of magic and are sure to create that wow factor.

Going Sustainable

As environmental consciousness continues to grow, sustainable weddings are on the rise. Couples are incorporating eco-friendly practices into their celebrations, such as using biodegradable confetti, opting for locally sourced and organic menus, and choosing eco-conscious wedding favors. Going green not only reduces your ecological footprint but also adds a meaningful touch to your big day.
