Weddings are always evolving, and 2025 is shaping up to be a cracker of a year. I’m seeing more personal touches, smaller guest lists, and some seriously cool tech creeping into weddings. As someone who spends most weekends on the dancefloor with couples and their guests, here’s my take on what I think will be the top trends this year.
Gone are the days of copy & paste weddings. Couples are putting their own spin on everything. From personalised playlists to bespoke cocktails and custom décor, weddings are all about telling your unique story.
I’ve seen couples opt for venues that mean something to them – like a barn where they first met, a beach they’ve always loved or a woodland where their ceremony is held under the canopy of trees.
Even the music is getting a makeover, with more people ditching the typical wedding classics for songs they danced to in clubs in their late teens & early 20s!
Intimate weddings with your nearest and dearest are on the rise. Forget worrying about inviting your mum’s old neighbour and your long lost cousin – you can spend your day with the people you actually want there.
Big weddings are still going strong, and some couples are turning their celebrations into multi-day events. But I’m definitely seeing a shift in more intimate weddings, with a no children rule.
Lighting is where I really get to shine – literally (Sorry)! Uplighting is a game-changer for setting the mood, whether you want a romantic glow for your first dance or dramatic pops of colour to energise the room.
And if you’re looking to take things to the next level, bespoke lighting shows are becoming a huge hit. I can design a fully custom light display that syncs with your music, creating a one-of-a-kind atmosphere that your guests will rave about. It’s like turning your wedding into its own concert!
Gone are the days where Wedding DJs can get away with turning up with random multi-coloured flashing lights, which strobe your guests at random moments.
Couples are saying goodbye to traditional pastel palettes and hello to bold, vibrant colours. Dramatic florals, statement backdrops, and daring designs are making weddings stand out like never before.
At the same time, sustainability is more important than ever. I’m seeing eco-friendly touches everywhere, from recycled décor to plant-based menus and upcycled wedding outfits. You can have a stunning wedding and also do your bit for the planet.
Absolutely! I can provide background music for your ceremony, drinks reception, and wedding breakfast. If you need microphones for speeches or announcements that’s also something I can provide.
Uplighting involves placing LED lights around your venue to create a stunning atmosphere. I can match the colours to your wedding theme, whether it’s soft romantic tones for dinner or vibrant colours to create a party atmosphere on the dancefloor.
A bespoke lighting show is a fully tailored light display that syncs with your music. Think dramatic effects for your first dance or a full-on light show during the party. It’s like bringing a mini festival to your wedding.
This is not the same as ‘Sound Active’ lighting, which simply reacts to the music levels. I have access to change every aspect of my lighting, from where they point to how fast they move.
Yes! I’m based in North Wales, but I’m happy to travel for weddings across the UK. Travel costs may apply depending on the distance, just let me know your venue, and I can provide a quote.
