Luxury Weddings Are Exploding in Popularity, Explains Director of Forever Events

Forever Events, Miami's premier luxury wedding and event management company, explains that the luxury wedding trend is currently exploding across the world. 

"Weddings are a great opportunity for couples to show their love in the most memorable and public way," remarked Lisi Korn, Executive Director of Forever Events. "With the ascent of social media, everyone wants to impress their relatives with an incredible event."

Spending on luxury weddings has increased dramatically in the past decade. These are the takeaways from the Ultra Luxury Wedding Market Report:

  • 1 in 5 couples within this segment spends over a million dollars on their wedding, with 8% spending over $3 million. 
  • Nearly half of the couples pay for part or all of the wedding themselves, and this segment tends to skew a little older (fewer millennials than the others, though they are still the majority wedding client in this group). 
  • They are the most educated of the all the budget segments and the heaviest bridal media users – brides and grooms having ultra luxury weddings do their homework and are not careless with how they spend their money."[1]

Luxury events are different in that the normal constraints on budgets and dates do not apply, therefore, these weddings can be creative and bespoke. If a client wants rare flowers flown in overnight, they can have this done. If they want engraved keepsakes given to their wedding guests, they can have them made. In short, whatever they imagine, a luxury wedding planner can make it happen. 

A luxury event begins with determining the theme. Usually, a designer will begin with a vision board or art board that will bring together color, design aesthetic, and the personal preferences of the wedding couple. As the wedding evolves, the theme increases in scope and the production of the event can include dramatic imagery, performances, and design. In short, there are no limits when it comes to creating the perfect luxury wedding. 

"As much as I am a wedding planner, I am also a wedding designer," said Lisi. "Weddings are an opportunity to showcase not only a couple's love and commitment to each other, but also the couple's creativity and vision for their life. I love working with couple's to create the perfect wedding day fantasy."
