1. Micro Weddings

“Our micro wedding (fewer then 30 guests in attendance) couples get the chance to really personalize the aesthetic and guest experience for their nearest and dearest! Micro weddings cost less, limit exposure and increases the amount of time the couple can spend with their friends & family in an intimate setting!”

 – Megan Clark, Clutch Events

2. Welcome Gifts

“Since weddings have become more intimate in 2021, couples are able to spend a little more to customize the experience for their guests. Couples can personalized the welcome gift with local treats from their favorite candy shop or create something custom for the guest to take home. It’s the sweet details people remember!”

3. Elevated Culinary Experiences

“Wedding clients are looking for an elevated experience while keeping their guests safe. Plated courses that come under glass domes or white tagines carry the personalized esthetic of the intimate experience happening at smaller weddings this year.”

 - Shelby Sewell, Foodz Catering


 

 

4. Bold Colors

“I'm seeing new opportunities in color like never before. No longer is it just the classic neutrals, but rather bold, unique combinations of color coming together for some fresh and exciting. Mixing unexpected color combinations into the floral will make for an incredible, personalized look.”

- Kaleb Willis, Kaleb Norman James Design

 

 

5. Unique Outdoor Venues

“We absolutely love planning a wedding in unique outdoor spaces like mountain tops, parks, and backyards. They are often times blank canvases that we get to completely transform into magical experiences. We always get excited visiting a new space and envisioning all the ways to bring it to life.”

-Aaron Shook – Perfect Storm Moments

 

6. Ceremony Seating

We love helping our couples come up with safe and elegant ceremony seating. Everything from grouping families on lounge furniture or blankets, pavilion seating or even placing our couples dockside with family and friends on personal boats, the options are endless!
