2022 Wedding Trends!

 

Spring has sprung and wedding season is in full force. In past years, Covid- 19 put large gatherings to a screeching halt, including weddings. Couples are more ready than ever to celebrate their love and coming into 2022 with a bang. Stay tuned for all the wedding trends you can look forward to all year long.

 

Guest Focus

 

Life is fleeting and full of unexpected turns. Now more than ever couples are choosing intention during this special time. Weddings are becoming far more purposeful, focused on the guest experience overall. Couples are focused on creating an amazing experience for their guests they are sure to take with them. Personalization in décor, entertainment, and interactive activities, are just some of the ways couples are incorporating intention into their big day!

 

My Wedding, My Way!

 

In 2022, couples are breaking away from tradition. We see more couples moving away from the classic cookie-cutter wedding towards a wedding that represents the couple, in whichever way that might be.

Although it’s always a good day for a white wedding, brides are altering what it means to be a beautiful bride on their big day. In 2022, brides are experimenting with colorful wedding dress designs. From ivory, champagne, and nude to hues of peach, blush, and blues, modern brides are stepping outside of the box and we’re here for it!

Wedding themes are becoming more than a perfect color combo for your venue space. Couples are transforming their space into a new realm of possibility. Rustic, Vintage, Garden, and Holidays are just some of the unique themes inspiring wedding design.

Another trend we’re seeing this year is virtual save the dates! A sustainable and easily distributable option in place of paper wedding invitations. The couple can create a graphic design that supports their wedding theme via digital platform like a website. The web page is filled with information about your event, while eliminating costs of printing and shipping fees.

 

Party or Peace? You Decide!

 

Coming into 2022, the traditional expectation of what a wedding should be has been thrown out.

Expectations of what your wedding should look like has changed coming into 2022. The classic grand function has taken a turn for a more intimate gathering. With some influence from the pandemic, some couples decided to have a small ceremony with their close friends and immediate family, packed with intention and attention to detail.

On the other hand, some couples have decided to go all out or go home! Full wedding weekends are also trending right now. With activities, relaxation, and vows tied into a weekend getaway, guests are sure to feel like they are on a vacation of love

Must Have Vendors For Your Next Event

Just like magic, an event seems to come together in the eyes of a guest, but the true magicians are the various vendors who piece them together to create an enchanting ambiance. It truly takes a village to bring someone’s vision to life. Consider the following vendors for your next celebration to take your function to the next level. 

Event Planner 

If you want someone to organize your event, hiring an event planner is a great option. Event planners have experience in all aspects of creating a cohesive event, starting with the planning that goes into it. They are also a great source of connections. Your event planner will already have contacts for credible vendors to utilize. 

Catering 

A catering vendor ensures a quality hassle-free food service experience for everyone. Not only is the vendor qualified in gourmet cooking for large groups of people, but it elevates the event’s atmosphere. Often, caterers will create a menu based on food preferences or on the theme of the event. They provide an entire service that includes cooking, plating, serving, and more. Caterers will discreetly hover during the event to ensure all food handling needs are met.  

Entertainment

A must-have at any function is entertainment. Entertainment can come in many forms. The best events have an established plan for entertainment for the duration of the event. This can be a speaker, a show, a dance, or even party games. The most important form of entertainment is a great DJ. Yes, the DJ brings the party to life with music but also works as a guide or host during the event. 

Event Rentals 

An event would not be a functional space without party rentals. Vendors like Grimes Events & Party Tents are essential in creating a space that is efficient for guests to sit, dance, eat, relax, and overall enjoy the celebration. Party rentals can include party tents, tables, chairs, lighting, flooring, staging, portable restrooms, décor, and much more. Guests need tables and chairs to be seated, a DJ might need a stage to set up on, and dancing can be made intentional with a specialized dance floor. Event rentals create the foundation of the event in its entirety and everything else comes secondary to building out the space. 

Décor 

Now that the bones of the event are built out, vendors that specialize in décor are needed to transform the look and feel of the space. The décor team is responsible for bringing the event holders’ vision to life. They will establish colors, themes, lighting, florals, decorations, and any personal touches. The décor will be one of the first aspects to stand out at any event. Décor can be created by one vendor or a group of them where each vendor specializes in a niche area of decorating. For example, your event planner could handle linens and balloons while a florist would focus on creating flower arrangements to dress the space. 

Photographers 

Did the event even happen if there are no photos? Having a photographer or videographer is especially important at any event. These functions take great efforts to create so capturing these memories to look back on is essential. It also helps the many vendors who participated, highlight their products and services. 

If you are looking to create a well-rounded function, big or small, having a variation of these vendors is essential to getting the most out of your celebration. Investing in a caterer, party rentals, entertainment, event decorator, and a photographer will yield the best experience for everyone in attendance. 

As a host, you can relax knowing all your event needs are met and your guests are accounted for. Get a head start on planning your next spring event! For any party rentals or event needs, contact Grimes Events & Party Tents today!
