Here is a list of 40 wedding themes brought to you by Destination Hotels & Resorts.
Experts have weighed in from across the company’s portfolio of more than 40 luxurious, locally-inspired and experience-driven hotels and resorts on what couples want today and in the year ahead. From large lavish weddings to small intimate ceremonies and traditional to modern, weddings are more diverse than ever before.
1. Never Ending Wedding Weekend
In the year ahead, wedding experts expect couples to expand upon the traditional wedding timeline and encourage their guests to ’make a weekend of it.’ More and more newlyweds are adding elements such as after parties, day-after breakfasts and brunches and increasing the size and scale of rehearsal dinners. At Wild Dunes Resort, located on the stunning oceanfront of Charleston, South Carolina, many clients are creating a full weekend of activities for their guests such as special welcome parties. Planners at Vermont’s picturesque Stowe Mountain Lodge, and Tarrytown House Estate and Conference Center, in New York, have also seen the additions of larger rehearsal dinner events, next-day breakfasts, after parties and longer guests stays.
2. Traditional is Out, Imaginative is In
The days of stuffy rehearsal dinners, regimented plated meals, and suit-and-tie norms are numbered according to wedding experts at Destination Hotels & Resorts. Couples are shaking up the concept of a rehearsal dinner with new ideas such as dessert and champagne receptions or even an elaborate “Low Country Luau” featuring oysters, shrimp and grits, a whole roasted pig and tiki torches. The master chef at Tempe Mission Palms Hotel and Conference Center has created a wildly interactive and imaginative liquid nitrogen ice cream station to spice up any desert service and planners at Wild Dunes Resort have redefined poolside chic with a luxuriously sophisticated yet informal tapas menu. One couple of wine enthusiasts at The Carolina Inn, a historically charming institution in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, celebrated their wedding with an elaborate wine tasting menu.
