Here are some interesting Orlando Wedding Trends I have heard of lately:
The colors for weddings are changing rather dramatically. Pastels are out and more earthy,metal colors are coming in (copper being one of the most mentioned).
Brides are spending less time in their engagement. There are many instances where Brides are putting off the various decisions to buy things, even when they have already selected the vendors.
Grooms are getting more involved. In the past Grooms have been hard to motivate, but lately Grooms are much more involved in the planning process. One couple I spoke to said they make all decisions and go on all appointments together. Good for them! The Brides need and deserve an extra hand in planning their weddings!
The food is changing. More exotic fare (Mediterranean and middle eastern fare) as opposed to the average Chicken and beef selections. Fish is becoming more popular as well on many caterer's menus. More appetizers are being offered and less alcohol is on the agenda (open bars are shrinking if not going away all together, being replaced by Beer and Wine or cash bars).
Invitations are becoming more and more unique. The standard invitation with save the dates and RSVP's are being replaced with Custom invitations which have a unique view of what each couple represents.
Please share any and all of your ideas here and let us know about your wedding plans.
