5 Modern Trends Your Wedding Needs

With each passing year, new wedding trends emerge, and at Reeka, we embrace everyone! From eco-friendly weddings to bold colours, we adore showcasing couple’s personalities and creating unforgettable experiences for themselves and their guests. These are a few modern trends that we think you should look to incorporate into your wedding.

Sustainable Weddings

As people become increasingly environmentally conscious, sustainable weddings are on the rise. Couples are opting for eco-friendly options such as locally sourced flowers, biodegradable confetti and recycled paper invitations. Many venues are also offering sustainable options such as solar power and composting. Sustainable weddings are not only good for the environment, but they also showcase a couple's commitment to making the world a better place. We embrace this hard, with all of our menus being prepared using locally sourced ingredients, not only do our couples get a fresher tasting meal but it reduces your weddings overall footprint.

Intimate Weddings

2020 and 2021 saw a huge rise in intimate weddings due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This has continued, with couples opting for smaller guest lists and more personal experiences. Intimate weddings also provide a more relaxed environment for the couple and their guests.

Couples are choosing to focus on quality over quantity and creating a meaningful experience for their closest family and friends. We also opted for an intimate wedding for our own service! It was such a beautiful day, and we love that these services are becoming ever more popular.

Non-Traditional Venues

It’s becoming more and more popular for couples to look outside of traditional church venues and opt for more unique and non-traditional wedding venues. Couples are getting creative with their wedding locations, from museums to botanical gardens. This trend allows couples to showcase their personality. Non-traditional venues often offer a unique backdrop for wedding photos and create a one-of-a-kind experience for guests.

We love it when a couple wants to match their wedding menu with the vibe of their venue! Ripping up the rule book to do what is best to tell your wedding story is what we do.

Bold Colours

Bold and bright colours are making their way back into wedding decor. From neon signs to jewel tones, couples are no longer afraid to make a statement with their wedding colour scheme. Bold colours add a fun and playful element to the wedding atmosphere. Couples are choosing colors that reflect their personalities and set the tone for the rest of their wedding.

Interactive Food and Drink Stations

Food and drink stations have been popular for a few years now, but couples have been taking it up a notch recently. Interactive food and drink stations allow guests to customise their meals and drinks to their liking. This trend also adds an element of fun and excitement to the wedding reception. The use of food trucks or drink carts is a fabulous way to bring interactive stations to your wedding. Offering non-traditional wedding food such as Pizza, Pasta, and Noodles is a great way to bring this to life.

If any of these ideas take your fancy, we can happily build these into your wedding and produce a day you and your guests won’t forget! Start your wedding journey below.
