The biggest wedding trends in 2021 and beyond have been revealed. Which one will you choose?

Local Menus

Keep things local this year when it comes to choosing your wedding breakfast menu. This up-and coming trend has become more popular as weddings stay closer to home in amidst the pandemic, and not only that it is eco-friendly and helps support local businesses.

In Lancashire you are truly spoilt for choice when it comes to delicious food that hasn’t travelled miles, from succulent meats, creamy cheeses and root vegetables to crunchy salads, freshly caught shrimp and the most delicious cast ales. Make sure to speak to your caterer about this delicious trend.

Keep Traditional

After the last 18 months, it is no surprise that weddings are reverting to more traditional themes. Focusing on the sentimental moments of the day, rather than grand gestures, you’ll find timeless dresses, simple bouquets and formal speeches.

Weekday Celebrations

Looking to keep the costs down or find availability sooner at your perfect venue? Weekday weddings are now becoming a much more popular choice. Simply moving your special day from a Saturday to a Monday can save thousands of pounds, as venues and suppliers offer weekday packages and with the overflow from 2020 weddings still in full swing, there is more likely to be availability.

Make it small

Limitations and lockdowns have led many to many couples to reflect on what is truly important when it comes to weddings, including who they want to celebrate their day with. Micro weddings with less than 20 guests will continue to be popular even once restrictions are limited and offer the chance for weddings to be a lot more personal and emotional.
