What's Trending in the Wedding Market??

Claiming the wedding to be the biggest day of the bride and groom’s life seems like an understatement in today’s day and age. A wedding, today, is more of a dream. A little girl’s dream, a parent’s dream, a grandmother’s dream, a sister’s dream. Making this beautiful dream come true involves a lot of hard work,planning and impeccable execution.

The wedding market is booming in India! Themes, trends and tastes are changing by the day. A simple example? The idea of hiring a wedding planner. A wedding is always planned by the older members of a family. It’s as good as tradition, but times are changing. Hiring a team to make the most important day of your life worthwhile is turning into a rampant development in the wedding circle.

Wedding decorations have become more than just torans and dupattas. New additions? Origami, vintage furniture props, ruffled chair covers, fabrics like sheer and lace are just to name a few. Colour theme weddings are another favourite.

A wedding is not just a union of two people but also a celebration of life. Of course, you want this celebration to reflect who you are. For those who want to portray their stylish tastes in wedding decoration and also stay within the budgetary constraints, the best way to do is to play with colours and lots of colours. Colours set the perfectly playful and auspicious ambiance for a wedding. It is for this reason that 'Weddings Inc.' gets into every detail of the wedding decor right from choosing a theme, stage setups, vidhi mandaps et al.

Sangeet themes are very experimental, be it a Masquearde party or Tiffany’s princess v/s Mumbai Mawalis theme. The pheras are more traditional with less of experiments whereas the Reception could be a Black Tie event, which gives the function a very classy and contemporary feel.

Booking a hall for the big day is too mainstream. Booking a destination? Now that’s unconventional. It is only natural to want your wedding to be a unique and unforgettable experience, not only for you and your partner , but also for family and friends closest to your heart who will be there to witness the perfect occasion. Beach weddings, palace weddings, farmhouse weddings, hill-station weddings; name it and there’s an apt location. Also, destination weddings have their own advantages. You have the liberty of limiting your guest list, you get to choose an exotic location and you also save some money.

A wedding is like a jigsaw puzzle made of pieces like love, hope and inspiration and a missing fourth piece“the complete wedding look”. The sehras and the maang tikaas match not only the traditional tastes, but also the theme and mood of the wedding.

Photographs make memories. But gone are the times when relatives, the happy couple and the guests posed specifically for pictures. This is the era of capturing candid emotions! A tease during the pheras, a tear during the kanyadaan, a smile shared among friends and family. Unnoticed, yet captured. This is how memories are made. A wedding video is now a wedding film, a wedding album is now a wedding photo-book. Loved ones sharing stories for wedding films and the bride and groom getting their couple’s portfolios made are other additions.

There are a number of miscellaneous trends that have also hit the wedding market. Specific wedding websites, blogs, web albums displaying candid moments during planning, gift baskets and thank you notes, to name a few. The idea is to make it a day to memorable day to remember.
