Fairy lights and striking balloon decor are sure to play a part in many decoration themes – so advertise your services now!

Smaller, More Intimate Weddings

Whether it’s due to social distancing guidelines or increased competition for venues, the “micro-wedding” is trending up – with significant increases in web searches for “simple” and “garden” wedding themes. Smaller guest lists (coupled with fewer exotic honeymoons due to travel concerns), means brides are likely to consider spending a higher percentage of their budget on decor and then “capturing the moment” in beautiful photographs.

There are excellent opportunities to promote your services for “everything wedding” from the hen-party, to the bride’s home, through to the ceremony and reception. Download our new wedding flyer here

Year-Round Wedding Season

More weddings all year round, and more outdoor weddings, means working with the weather and with the available daylight the whole year through. More events are predicted to take place earlier in the day (“brunch weddings” are trending up) and all through the winter months, so you may need to make adjustments to your typical wedding planning schedules.

Promote the fact that you are taking advanced bookings now and be sure to showcase outdoor designs for all seasons in your communications!

Make a Lasting Impression!

A recent study found 79% of couples were planning on creating a wedding website and more people are considering “live-streaming” their ceremony to allow guests who can’t attend to join the celebrations. This trend, coupled with the increasing demand for “Insta-worthy” content means great backdrops and great photos are a MUST for today’s couples.

Help couples make a real impression by inspiring them with show-stopping balloon decor!

Buying Local

The COVID pandemic has increased everyone’s focus on “buying local” and supporting small local businesses – and brides are sure to embrace this trend.

Check out opportunities to promote your services at local venues, on neighbourhood social media pages and in local press and magazines.

Colour Trends

While the trend for “natural / green and white” weddings is still strong, we are also seeing more couples leaning into bold, colourful weddings and away from whites and creams. Couples are pushing the typical ideas of wedding decor and moving in the direction of fun, bright and happy; incorporating all sorts of colours in their stationery, decor and foods.

Autumnal colour palettes of mustard, buttery yellows and ochres are proving popular on wedding inspiration sites right now and this year’s trends for grey, pink, sage and blush colour schemes are sure to continue.
