How The Wedding Industry Is Changing
Today's weddings are becoming bigger and bigger with huge budgets and some could be compared to celebrity weddings.
The trend this season is cool crisp whites and stunning black with antique laces, also loads of bling, you can never have too much bling, whether it be on the wedding dress or on the tables at the reception.
Another trend seems to be for two meals to be served at the reception, a light meal is often served while the bridal party are having their photos taken, maybe sushi or a variety of salads, followed by the main meal with the bride and groom present.
This is a great idea because often guests can become bored waiting around for often two hours while the photos are taken.
The arrival of the bride and groom are very important events, grooms often arrive by helicopter now with their male entourage, or if a beach wedding a speed boat can make a spectacular arrival.
The romantic horse and carriage will always remain a favourite for the brides arrival, some are taking this even further and having a beautiful Cinderella like, glass carriage which is sure to make every bride feel like a real princess.
Dresses are getting bigger and more fancy, Katie Prices wedding to Peter Andrea a few years ago drew attention because of her huge dress made from hundreds of tulle petticoats and trimmed with thousands of crystals.
Now a lot of brides are asking for Katie Price wedding dresses, with very large sparkly tiaras and very long veils trimmed with lace and crystals, and because of this trend for the boofy, meringue like dresses a lot of brides are choosing two wedding dresses, one dress for the ceremony then a dress that has been toned down a bit and that is more comfortable for the reception and dancing later.
The average wedding in Australia and USA is between $20,000 and $75,000,with many spending as much as $250,000! The brides parents will be pleased to hear that more and more brides and grooms to be, are paying for their dream day themselves with their parents often paying for the alcohol at the reception or helping out with the overall cost, which must be quite a relief if you have 3 or 4 daughters that get married.
There are so many beautiful accessories now for the bride and her bridal party, every bride must of course have a hen night and now a days more often or not the guests will have personalised t shirts stating whether they are a Matron of Honour, Mother of the Bride, Grandmother of the bride or Flowergirl, and there's the matching jewellery for the bridesmaids, the personalised matching velour track suits that are worn by the members of the bridal party on the morning of the wedding to visit the hairdresser and make up artist.
The wedding budget has increased significantly over the years and doesn't look like it is going to go down anytime soon, we can thank celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Posh and Becks and Katie Price for that! http://www.
