Event Trends for 2009...

Big Trends for 2009 include the "environmentally conscious" and the "monetary conscious".

With the huge changes in the climate and the shortage of resources almost everyone is aware of the implacations of the environment..."Everybody is trying to make a change by going green...even our brides!" Says Ariana of Anar Party Rentals.

In the picture on the right is an example of "Going Green", "Green shoes" designed by Anni Rapinoja Taidekoulutus, a designer from Finland, is just a taste of the environmentally conscious brides of 2009. We are seeing many more recyclables at the reception and ceremony, from earth-friendly invitations to eco-friendly wedding rings. We have eco-friendly flowers to eco-friendly wedding favors.


As the economy remains in recession, we are seeing another trend, getting the most for the least amount of dollars. "We see that people are comparing prices much more than before. This is actually great news for our company, as we are always trying to keep our prices the lowest", says Ariana. "We are also noticing trends in events that include increasing numbers of backyard weddings and parties."
