8 Sacramento Wedding Trends for 2012
Posted by Joe Thompson on Tue, Feb 14, 2012 @ 01:20 PM
Here we are on Valentines Day of 2012. Such a great day to remind your loved ones of how you really feel.
This day also got me thinking of the Weddings and the trends that we are seeing as we head into the heart of the 2012 Sacramento Wedding Season.
1) The Wedding Dress: White and Ivory are still the heavy hitters. We are starting to see strong colors such as black or red gain some momentum.
2) More and more couples are opting to be married in a location other than a church. Outdoor weddings and weddings in unique and interesting locations have become a popular way to make your wedding differ from the rest. If you would like to use a church, try having your reception in a creative space like a museum or at a winery. Often these types of spaces provide their own decoration and ambiance, and the cost of decorating is minimal.
3) Professional Photographers are the rage once again. We feel this has a lot to do with social media. A profile photo done by a professional photographer is a great way to show off. Not just at the event, but engagement photos as well.
4) First Dance Choreography is big. YouTube has made this fun little part of the special day a big event. It seems weekly a video is shown in the media that show a couple/wedding party really kicking it up a notch
5) Bridesmaids: The big colors for 2012 are Plum and Violet.
6) Photo booths: These were a big hit in 2011 and are still rolling along. The booths now have backdrops to go with the props. What a great way to see you friends enjoying your "party".
7) Beach Resorts: Lazing on the beach beds in the open air at locations completely secluded from public, is being increasingly liked by the modern honeymooning couples. Many beach resorts in the top honeymoon spots have the exclusive facilities for king-sized beach beds for two, equipped with cushion pillows and beautiful & safe curtains for privacy.
8) Local Sacramento Food is still HOT !! We live in such a locale that we are spoiled by the culinary riches of the area. Sacramento Wedding Caterers are very lucky to be working with such great products !!
Happy Valentines Day !!
