Speaker 2 (01:36):
Thank you, thank you.
So yeah, three years ago I justwas like you know what I could

I knew you had a professionaldoing your social media because
it's on point thank you.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Thank you, yep, hallie's my girl I love it.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So today we're going to be talking about wedding
trends, because, I mean, timeschange on a daily basis.
I mean, yeah, things arepopping up on social media like
crazy, and then by the time atleast for me I'm sometimes I'm
really bad with social media soby the time I'm trying to jump
on a trend, it's already dead,and so I'm like, oh, my goodness
, I missed it.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
That's me on tiktok.
I sent her stuff and she's likeyeah, I saw that a month ago,
oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So let's see.
So what are some of the trendsthat you're seeing this year for
weddings that are like that yousee everyone doing?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
um, I would honestly say that my favorite trend that
I'm seeing right now is verymuch like the farmer market vibe
, like everybody's wantingeverything to be very natural.
Um, organic, organic likethey're wanting, like the ruched
tablecloths.
They want all the tableclothsto be different textures.
They want the rooted fruit andthe rooted vegetables as
(03:07):
centerpieces.
They don't want so much florals, and if they do want florals,
they want it to just be aminimal style along with, like,
rooted elements, and so that'sbeen my favorite to see so far.
I think it's actually going tocarry out pretty far because
it's kind of timeless for themost part if it's done in a
tasteful manner.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Um, but honestly, that's probably one of my
favorites right now I did awedding uh, a few a few weeks
ago and that's exactly what theyhad for their centerpieces it
was.
It was so colorful, but in avery not in a very like, yeah,
bright, rainbowish way.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
We had, um, like we went to a.
What was it like a vent, like avent and a vendor event or
whatnot?
Um, at the prospect house inaustin and the centerpieces
there and everything were likepieces of cabbage and like all
these random pieces of it looksreally cool right and we were
like, oh, that's interesting.
(04:04):
But the more we looked at itwe're like, oh, this is really
nice, like it's so.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
It's so unique, yeah, and different, and it's just
like a wow piece, like when yousee it you're like I didn't
think cabbage would look thisgood right, no, I literally
thought that I was like, uh, Idon't know about this one.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
But then as I sat there, I was like no, I actually
like it.
My sister's getting married injune and her wedding won't have
that.
But I was kind of trying topush her towards it.
I was like I mean, it would bekind of cute.
And she's like, no, that's notmy vibe.
And I was like okay, well, itneeds to be somebody's vibe
because I'm obsessed with it Ifeel like that would be my, my
vibe, like it.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
I I think that, like you know, if I was ever to get
married, I feel like I wouldpick a fall wedding and use
stuff like that for the decorthroughout the entire venue, you
know, with the florals and thenthe centerpieces, and then just
like a I wonder if it wouldmake the wedding cheaper, since
we're just pulling it out of theground yeah, yeah, like just,
(04:59):
let me just go to atv and grabmy centerpieces, my carrots with
words on them.
That's so funny, but but yeahthey.
You know some people try to.
You know, we have our budget,our budget friendly, uh, our
budget friendly queens yeah, welove them all.
So, when it comes to trends, doyou think, um, there's anything
out there that has beentrending for a while and that
(05:22):
you think it's still gonna stay?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
you know, current for 2025 honestly, like personal
touches have become extremelyimportant to a lot of brides and
a lot of grooms, and not thatit wasn't popular before, but I
don't think it was as of a thing, because before you would have
brides and grooms that were justwanting the very structured
(05:46):
wedding Traditional, traditionalThank you.
They wanted the ceremony, thecocktail or the reception and
then call it a day, nothing elseout of the ordinary.
But nowadays people are wantingto add tons of personal touches
, like they have pictures oftheir past relatives or
grandparents or loved ones inthe front row, but then they
(06:07):
have a special dedication forthem, or they have.
I remember one bride had apiece of her grandmother's
favorite t-shirt that she hadcut and it was tied around her
bouquet.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Wow, that was beautiful, loved that.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
We even had a bride who not only had a photo of
their I think it was hergrandfather in the front row,
they also did like a special,like ceremony just for him,
because he was from like, ohgosh, I think he was from Kansas
city.
So he was a big chiefs fan.
So they incorporated the chiefsin the ceremony or something to
(06:43):
honor him and I really lovedthat.
So I think that'll continue,because everybody's trying to
become your, have their weddingbecome a very personalized
experience, um, and so I thinkthat'll continue, because
everybody's trying to become,have their wedding become a very
personalized experience, and soI think that'll continue to
follow.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And I think the personal touches will kind of
change.
So I think that there's alwaysgoing to be some kind of
personal touch and I think thatmaybe things like stir sticks
and cocktail napkins used to bereally popular, and now other
personal touches are becomingpopular throughout popular and
now other personal touches arebecoming popular throughout.
So people are customizing theirtable numbers or customizing
their signage to match theirinvitations and they're doing
(07:18):
really cute stuff on theirinvitations or they're doing
custom like dissolvable topperson their drinks or just other
really cute, customizablepersonal things.
So I think that some kind ofpersonalization is going to stay
throughout the years, but Ithink that it will ebb and flow
depending on what the trends are.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I love it when they incorporate the sitting chart
into the design of the weddings.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
That was on my list of my trends.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I have seen some that are so unique, like, so cool.
I did a wedding a few monthsago where it was almost like a
custom bookshelf um, I can'tremember.
I I mean I saw it from fromwhere I was set up with the
photo booth, the what did ithave books on it?
it did, so this is I think I sawwhat you're talking about so
(08:03):
this is, this is and I need toask the wedding planner that
that we did the wedding for thatthat day, because I did see
people walking around with books, so I'm not really sure if each
check them out.
Yeah, I'm not sure if eachguest grabbed a book and that
was their.
You know their seed and theirfavorite and their maybe their
favorite book.
(08:23):
Maybe it was a book with photosof the couple.
Like I'm not really sure whatit was, I never really asked the
wedding planner, but that'ssomething, something that I'm
gonna check in with her becauseI thought that was so unique.
Yes, at first when I saw it Iwas like, oh, it's just for show
, you know, like it's a cool,like design, personalized
bookshelf.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
But then when I saw people walking around with the
actual books, I was like, oh, mygod, that is so very
interactive and that's anothertrend that I'm obsessed with is
like guest interaction, so likeit's no longer oh, the guests
come, they have their meal, theyclap for the bride and groom
and then they leave.
They're wanting their guests towalk away and be like man.
I was wanting more from thatwedding, because you're already
(09:01):
spending so much money, youmight as well make it fun, as
much fun as possible.
Yeah, so like we've seen, likea good friend of ours owns a
charcuterie like grazing companyand so she makes like really
cool walls and she stuffs allthe charcuterie in these
champagne coupes and so guestshave to go and grab one and then
you know they're walking aroundwith them and so that's pretty
(09:23):
interactive.
We even have a good vendorfriend that does like martini
cups and puts cake in them sodrop their name.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
We want to mention teeny is um what is teeny by
jane, jana and joey, they do umcake, teenies, basically.
So you walk up and you choosewhat flavor you want, what
topping you want, what fillingyou want, and they serve it to
you in a martini glass.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
It's so cute, I think I've seen him, I think I didn't
know.
I think I did an open house andhe was set up right next to me.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It was such a cool concept and they're so good.
It tastes so good.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
We're having them at my sister's wedding in June and,
oh my gosh, we tasted all thecakes and, oh my gosh, I was
like, oh my God, I need all ofthese.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I love it.
And who's the vendor for thecharcuterie?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Sweet Faking Honey.
Okay, our girl we want to.
We want to make sure that wethrow information out there for
our listeners.
Go give sweet fig and honey atsome follows Cause I just made
some content for her too, ohlook at you.
Making the world go round.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I love it, I love it.
So, and then again, when itcomes to trends, are there any
things out there that you'relike over?
I'm like just let it go, justlet it go, don't do that anymore
.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
There's so many, but.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I always like Tell me , tell me how to do them.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
There are so many things that grind my gears.
Let me tell you I want to hearit all.
Oh, what do I say withoutmaking it so not great.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Hey, this is a tip to give.
We like to talk about otherpeople here.
We like drama.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
You know everybody loves a good session of gossip
session of gossip.
Yeah, talk to me, tell me whatyou hate out there.
So I don't want to say that Ihate, because hate's a strong
word.
I would say that there's a lotof brides that like different
styled weddings and while thisgoes along with trends, while
the trendy thing right now issomething very extravagant,
(11:07):
elegant, beautiful, grand isvery much a trend right now,
there's also minimal, minimalist, minimalistic weddings that are
trending, which are also superbeautiful.
And then you still haveespecially because we're in
Texas and in San Antonio and youknow all these places um,
rustic weddings are still verypopular, because that's just
(11:29):
kind of how we grew up.
We grew up knowing that we weregoing to get married, you know,
in a rustic setting Down theroad in the barn Down the road,
in the barn, and that's justkind of what we're accustomed to
, and a lot of vendors who havebuilt beautiful venues.
They are very catering to thatkind of couple that wants that
(11:51):
sort of rustic wedding.
I personally, when I getmarried, probably won't have a
rustic wedding and it's not myfavorite, but I do think it can
be done very tastefully andbeautifully, and I do.
We do have a lot of brides thatare, um, you know, rustic
brides and I had a rusticwedding and it was fun and
gorgeous.
She did, and let me tell you Iwas giving lots of notes and she
(12:12):
was like well, I loved it and Iwas like.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well, to each their own.
To each their own, I guess.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
But I would just say I would probably say rustic
weddings are kind of on theirway out.
But we're in San Antonio sothere's still lots and lots of
them.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I did a few a few weeks ago where.
So it was not necessarilyrustic, but it was like texas
chic, yeah.
So they incorporated a lot ofum, you know texas elements and
like central, you know sanantonio, austin, you know the
hill country.
So something that they did thatwas so cute, so they had
throughout, throughout thewedding, they had these disco
(12:52):
cactus structures.
Oh, that's cute.
That looked really, really cool.
And then, talking about theseating chart earlier, so they
had each chair, each setting hada jalapeno with the name of the
person in it.
Oh, I've seen that.
That's so cool.
It was the coolest thing ever.
The place card yeah, it was ajalapeno with the name of the
person in it.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Oh, I've seen that, that's so it was the coolest
thing ever, so like place cardyeah yeah, it was a hell of a
texas chic, because I saw onethat happened in austin at um, I
forgot what, what place it wascalled, but it kind of looked
like it was round top but it'snot and it was just a big ranch
area and whatever and it lookedsuper cool and I was like, okay,
I could get down with that,yeah.
(13:30):
But you know, yeah, it's, it's.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Yeah, I mean, you know, people like different
things.
I personally wouldn't wouldn'tdo a rustic wedding either black
tie, oh yeah, oh yeah I, I wantme too.
I want black tie, I wantchandeliers, I want you know,
like, like, like a moody vibelike call me when you're ready,
all right just book a bridethat's going to be getting
married at Redberry Estate.
(13:52):
Love it.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
And that's exactly what she's going for.
Black tie moody, elegant,romantic.
Lots of personal touches, lotsof personal touches, lots of
white roses, and I was like, ohmy gosh, this is, this is.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, I mean I won my guest.
I mean I'm talking about mywedding, like if I'm actually
going to have a wedding.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
But you never know, you never know, never say never.
I met my husband and six monthslater we were married.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Oh, look at you yeah, no.
So I want my wedding.
I want everybody to wear black,like that is.
You know, maybe I did a weddingonce where everybody was
wearing black or white and itlooked really, really cool I
think then you gotta throw insome floral um color though so
you gotta have some color.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It can't be all black .
Yeah, no for sure.
Yeah, like the people wearingblack for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
But then the decor.
You know like I would love tomake it like a, like a hunter
green, like a burgundy, like alike a gold dish let's get you
married.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Look at me planning my wedding you definitely need
to do it in the fall, becausethose are definitely fall colors
I can't handle myself planningmy wedding you have a
significant other
Speaker 3 (14:51):
I do, I do okay, so let's hop to it all right.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Well, surprises are coming.
You're listening you have tomarry, oh my goodness, I can't
even handle myself right nowplanning my, my bogus wedding
here.
It'll be a good one?
No, but seriously, I think.
And so when it comes to um, youknow, speaking of, you know,
like going back to, okay, nowit's getting hot in here.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
We're making you nervous.
We're really interviewing here,right?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I feel like I mean the roles have turned here.
Now you're interviewing me, no,but seriously, when it comes to
the trends, I guess.
Now, when it comes to thecontent creation, so I mean that
is so popular right now, oh,yeah, content creation, so I
mean, that is so popular rightnow.
Yeah, that's a trend.
So, I guess, walk me throughthe process of content creation,
because, of course, you know,something that most couples have
(15:39):
is a videographer.
So what I would say, I guess,what is the main difference,
other than, of course, the typeof equipment that you use for
the content creation?
What is the main differencebetween a videographer and a
content creator?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
So I always tell brides if they're interested in
videography or content creation.
I always say it's either goingto be a great addition to your
videographer or a greatsupplement to videography.
If it's a great addition, I'mgoing to be there capturing all
the behind the scenes.
I'm going to get anything thatyou want.
I'm going to get everything theTikToks that you want to make
(16:13):
like whatever it is like, I'mgoing to get it.
And you're going to getthousands of videos delivered to
you the night or sorry, the dayafter your wedding.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
But I will say it's not just TikToks and like trendy
dances, no, it's like sweetmoments, like we just did Behind
the scenes.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
We just did a really sweet wedding at the Vadir in
Wimberley and their family wasextremely, extremely religious
and I wouldn't consider myselfsuper religious, however,
there's just the connection oftheir family and everything was
so precious.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
And I.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I captured this really intimate moment that I
don't even think I was supposedto capture because I didn't like
warn me they were doing it.
But they were just in thebridal suite and the mom and the
groom's mom and all thebridesmaids and grandparents
were praying over the bride andtouching her and like they had a
moment of silence for fiveminutes.
And it was like.
So I started crying.
(17:08):
I was like I barely know thisbride, Like I only got to know
her because we booked each other.
But, like I was like, oh my gosh, like this is so sweet.
So it's just things like thatthat I don't think a
videographer is going totechnically capture, because
with a videographer, um, they'restill I think they're still
very viable and they're stillneeded, um, but they're going to
(17:28):
capture lots of things and thenedit it down into one highlight
video or maybe a couplehighlight videos, Whereas with
content, you are gettingcomplete raw things from your
day the day after your event.
So you get to go back with yourfamily and just look over all
those special moments and thenyou're also going to get edited
videos on top of that, and thenyou can edit the videos yourself
(17:49):
on top of that for like afraction to what videography
costs.
So I just always tell bridesit's either a great addition to
videography and it's, I thinkeverybody should have it or it's
a really great supplement.
Whichever.
Whichever way you roll.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
And I think, yeah, they're both really, um,
important on the wedding dayCause I think the videography,
um, you know, I want to havethat, that formal video that I
can watch with my family.
In 10 years, you know, like,they're probably not gonna be
watching the video on mySnapchat or my camera roll, but
but I think that in the shortterm, the next morning, I want
to wake up and see all thosebehind the scene moments and I
want to have that little snippetto post on Instagram, and so I
(18:25):
think that they're both reallyimportant and really cool to
have.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
And I have brides too , that, like, aren't really
concerned with social media.
They're just like I just reallywant certain things captured
and you know I don't I'mprobably not going to post them,
but I just like to have themand I want them in a folder that
I can go back and just onlywatch this one 20 second clip of
me walking down the aisle, or Ijust want the 20 second clip of
(18:50):
my niece and nephew carryingthe rings, or whatever it may be
.
And so I think where themisconception comes is like
people are hiring contentcreators because, you know, they
need people for their socialmedia, which is not the case at
all.
I have tons and tons of bridesthat only hire content creation
because they want an addition tovideography, or they just want
(19:14):
all those little special momentsthat they can go look back at
without having to scroll througha longer video.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
So that makes sense.
And when you send the footageto them, how do you send that?
Is it like a gallery?
Is it a Dropbox folder?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
So I send them through Dropbox or Google Drive.
Dropbox for me lately has beena lot easier, but yeah, they get
a whole Dropbox folder ofeverything in it.
Honestly, I always say the dayafter, but if I have a moment I
kind of send them it the nightof, just because it's kind of
fun when you go back to whereveryou are with your groom or
(19:52):
bride or whatever, and then Isend you a link to it and you're
like so when it comes to Iguess, budgeting, you know, for
a wedding, we want to make sureour listeners know and you don't
have to be specific, but justan estimate how much does it
cost to hire a content creator?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
And then also, how long are you there?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Yeah, for so there's through moments there's
different packages, yeah, for sothere's through moments there's
different packages.
We have three different packages.
So they can either hire me fortheir entire day, and it's a
thousand, and so they basicallyget me from right before they
start to get dressed for the day, so right before the
photographer takes their gettingready photos, and then I'm
there till the very end, as soonas they walk out of the
(20:33):
reception hall.
And then we also have a packagethat includes just ceremony and
reception only.
Like I'm there right when theceremony begins and I'm there
just about when the receptionends, and then we also just have
like a lower package below that.
That's basically if you're justwanting me to just get content
of you for the getting readypart, or if you just want me to
(20:53):
get content of your ceremony, orif you just want me there for
the getting ready part, or ifyou just want me to get content
of your ceremony, or if you justwant me there for the reception
, so it can mix and minglebetween those three definitely
give them options and then theyjust, they just go from there.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I like that, I love it.
Yeah, so content creation, Imean that's where everything is
now.
You know, everybody wants to beon social media, everybody wants
to just send messages to eachother like chips and their ideas
exactly like for, for example,like with me, like I go through
my, my gallery on my phone and Idelete a lot of the stuff there
because I know that I have iton like instagram, or I have it
(21:26):
on on rarely facebook, but yeah,I like it, but yeah.
So I feel like, you know, likehaving those moments, like you
said, you know, like it's, it'sa I feel like it is a completely
different vibe from the, fromthe videographer, um, but yeah,
I feel like it should be.
I, I feel like both optionsshould be considered, you know,
(21:47):
because it's a completedifferent style of of, you know,
filming and and, like you said,you know, you, you give the
content right away.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
they're great, and I think both options are kind of
needed in this day and age and Ijust think that, whichever way

Thank you, yep, hallie's my girl I love it.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
So today we're going to be talking about wedding
trends, because, I mean, timeschange on a daily basis.
I mean, yeah, things arepopping up on social media like
crazy, and then by the time atleast for me I'm sometimes I'm
really bad with social media soby the time I'm trying to jump
on a trend, it's already dead,and so I'm like, oh, my goodness
, I missed it.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
That's me on tiktok.
I sent her stuff and she's likeyeah, I saw that a month ago,
oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So let's see.
So what are some of the trendsthat you're seeing this year for
weddings that are like that yousee everyone doing?
Speaker 3 (02:45):
um, I would honestly say that my favorite trend that
I'm seeing right now is verymuch like the farmer market vibe
, like everybody's wantingeverything to be very natural.
Um, organic, organic likethey're wanting, like the ruched
tablecloths.
They want all the tableclothsto be different textures.
They want the rooted fruit andthe rooted vegetables as
(03:07):
centerpieces.
They don't want so much florals, and if they do want florals,
they want it to just be aminimal style along with, like,
rooted elements, and so that'sbeen my favorite to see so far.
I think it's actually going tocarry out pretty far because
it's kind of timeless for themost part if it's done in a
tasteful manner.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Um, but honestly, that's probably one of my
favorites right now I did awedding uh, a few a few weeks
ago and that's exactly what theyhad for their centerpieces it
was.
It was so colorful, but in avery not in a very like, yeah,
bright, rainbowish way.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
We had, um, like we went to a.
What was it like a vent, like avent and a vendor event or
whatnot?
Um, at the prospect house inaustin and the centerpieces
there and everything were likepieces of cabbage and like all
these random pieces of it looksreally cool right and we were
like, oh, that's interesting.
(04:04):
But the more we looked at itwe're like, oh, this is really
nice, like it's so.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
It's so unique, yeah, and different, and it's just
like a wow piece, like when yousee it you're like I didn't
think cabbage would look thisgood right, no, I literally
thought that I was like, uh, Idon't know about this one.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
But then as I sat there, I was like no, I actually
like it.
My sister's getting married injune and her wedding won't have
that.
But I was kind of trying topush her towards it.
I was like I mean, it would bekind of cute.
And she's like, no, that's notmy vibe.
And I was like okay, well, itneeds to be somebody's vibe
because I'm obsessed with it Ifeel like that would be my, my
vibe, like it.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
I I think that, like you know, if I was ever to get
married, I feel like I wouldpick a fall wedding and use
stuff like that for the decorthroughout the entire venue, you
know, with the florals and thenthe centerpieces, and then just
like a I wonder if it wouldmake the wedding cheaper, since
we're just pulling it out of theground yeah, yeah, like just,
(04:59):
let me just go to atv and grabmy centerpieces, my carrots with
words on them.
That's so funny, but but yeahthey.
You know some people try to.
You know, we have our budget,our budget friendly, uh, our
budget friendly queens yeah, welove them all.
So, when it comes to trends, doyou think, um, there's anything
out there that has beentrending for a while and that
(05:22):
you think it's still gonna stay?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
you know, current for 2025 honestly, like personal
touches have become extremelyimportant to a lot of brides and
a lot of grooms, and not thatit wasn't popular before, but I
don't think it was as of a thing, because before you would have
brides and grooms that were justwanting the very structured
(05:46):
wedding Traditional, traditionalThank you.
They wanted the ceremony, thecocktail or the reception and
then call it a day, nothing elseout of the ordinary.
But nowadays people are wantingto add tons of personal touches
, like they have pictures oftheir past relatives or
grandparents or loved ones inthe front row, but then they
(06:07):
have a special dedication forthem, or they have.
I remember one bride had apiece of her grandmother's
favorite t-shirt that she hadcut and it was tied around her
bouquet.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Wow, that was beautiful, loved that.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
We even had a bride who not only had a photo of
their I think it was hergrandfather in the front row,
they also did like a special,like ceremony just for him,
because he was from like, ohgosh, I think he was from Kansas
city.
So he was a big chiefs fan.
So they incorporated the chiefsin the ceremony or something to
(06:43):
honor him and I really lovedthat.
So I think that'll continue,because everybody's trying to
become your, have their weddingbecome a very personalized
experience, um, and so I thinkthat'll continue, because
everybody's trying to become,have their wedding become a very
personalized experience, and soI think that'll continue to
follow.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And I think the personal touches will kind of
change.
So I think that there's alwaysgoing to be some kind of
personal touch and I think thatmaybe things like stir sticks
and cocktail napkins used to bereally popular, and now other
personal touches are becomingpopular throughout popular and
now other personal touches arebecoming popular throughout.
So people are customizing theirtable numbers or customizing
their signage to match theirinvitations and they're doing
(07:18):
really cute stuff on theirinvitations or they're doing
custom like dissolvable topperson their drinks or just other
really cute, customizablepersonal things.
So I think that some kind ofpersonalization is going to stay
throughout the years, but Ithink that it will ebb and flow
depending on what the trends are.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I love it when they incorporate the sitting chart
into the design of the weddings.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
That was on my list of my trends.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I have seen some that are so unique, like, so cool.
I did a wedding a few monthsago where it was almost like a
custom bookshelf um, I can'tremember.
I I mean I saw it from fromwhere I was set up with the
photo booth, the what did ithave books on it?
it did, so this is I think I sawwhat you're talking about so
(08:03):
this is, this is and I need toask the wedding planner that
that we did the wedding for thatthat day, because I did see
people walking around with books, so I'm not really sure if each
check them out.
Yeah, I'm not sure if eachguest grabbed a book and that
was their.
You know their seed and theirfavorite and their maybe their
favorite book.
(08:23):
Maybe it was a book with photosof the couple.
Like I'm not really sure whatit was, I never really asked the
wedding planner, but that'ssomething, something that I'm
gonna check in with her becauseI thought that was so unique.
Yes, at first when I saw it Iwas like, oh, it's just for show
, you know, like it's a cool,like design, personalized
bookshelf.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
But then when I saw people walking around with the
actual books, I was like, oh, mygod, that is so very
interactive and that's anothertrend that I'm obsessed with is
like guest interaction, so likeit's no longer oh, the guests
come, they have their meal, theyclap for the bride and groom
and then they leave.
They're wanting their guests towalk away and be like man.
I was wanting more from thatwedding, because you're already
(09:01):
spending so much money, youmight as well make it fun, as
much fun as possible.
Yeah, so like we've seen, likea good friend of ours owns a
charcuterie like grazing companyand so she makes like really
cool walls and she stuffs allthe charcuterie in these
champagne coupes and so guestshave to go and grab one and then
you know they're walking aroundwith them and so that's pretty
(09:23):
interactive.
We even have a good vendorfriend that does like martini
cups and puts cake in them sodrop their name.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
We want to mention teeny is um what is teeny by
jane, jana and joey, they do umcake, teenies, basically.
So you walk up and you choosewhat flavor you want, what
topping you want, what fillingyou want, and they serve it to
you in a martini glass.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
It's so cute, I think I've seen him, I think I didn't
know.
I think I did an open house andhe was set up right next to me.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It was such a cool concept and they're so good.
It tastes so good.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
We're having them at my sister's wedding in June and,
oh my gosh, we tasted all thecakes and, oh my gosh, I was
like, oh my God, I need all ofthese.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I love it.
And who's the vendor for thecharcuterie?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Sweet Faking Honey.
Okay, our girl we want to.
We want to make sure that wethrow information out there for
our listeners.
Go give sweet fig and honey atsome follows Cause I just made
some content for her too, ohlook at you.
Making the world go round.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I love it, I love it.
So, and then again, when itcomes to trends, are there any
things out there that you'relike over?
I'm like just let it go, justlet it go, don't do that anymore
.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
There's so many, but.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I always like Tell me , tell me how to do them.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
There are so many things that grind my gears.
Let me tell you I want to hearit all.
Oh, what do I say withoutmaking it so not great.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Hey, this is a tip to give.
We like to talk about otherpeople here.
We like drama.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
You know everybody loves a good session of gossip
session of gossip.
Yeah, talk to me, tell me whatyou hate out there.
So I don't want to say that Ihate, because hate's a strong
word.
I would say that there's a lotof brides that like different
styled weddings and while thisgoes along with trends, while
the trendy thing right now issomething very extravagant,
(11:07):
elegant, beautiful, grand isvery much a trend right now,
there's also minimal, minimalist, minimalistic weddings that are
trending, which are also superbeautiful.
And then you still haveespecially because we're in
Texas and in San Antonio and youknow all these places um,
rustic weddings are still verypopular, because that's just
(11:29):
kind of how we grew up.
We grew up knowing that we weregoing to get married, you know,
in a rustic setting Down theroad in the barn Down the road,
in the barn, and that's justkind of what we're accustomed to
, and a lot of vendors who havebuilt beautiful venues.
They are very catering to thatkind of couple that wants that
(11:51):
sort of rustic wedding.
I personally, when I getmarried, probably won't have a
rustic wedding and it's not myfavorite, but I do think it can
be done very tastefully andbeautifully, and I do.
We do have a lot of brides thatare, um, you know, rustic
brides and I had a rusticwedding and it was fun and
gorgeous.
She did, and let me tell you Iwas giving lots of notes and she
(12:12):
was like well, I loved it and Iwas like.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well, to each their own.
To each their own, I guess.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
But I would just say I would probably say rustic
weddings are kind of on theirway out.
But we're in San Antonio sothere's still lots and lots of
them.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I did a few a few weeks ago where.
So it was not necessarilyrustic, but it was like texas
chic, yeah.
So they incorporated a lot ofum, you know texas elements and
like central, you know sanantonio, austin, you know the
hill country.
So something that they did thatwas so cute, so they had
throughout, throughout thewedding, they had these disco
(12:52):
cactus structures.
Oh, that's cute.
That looked really, really cool.
And then, talking about theseating chart earlier, so they
had each chair, each setting hada jalapeno with the name of the
person in it.
Oh, I've seen that.
That's so cool.
It was the coolest thing ever.
The place card yeah, it was ajalapeno with the name of the
person in it.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Oh, I've seen that, that's so it was the coolest
thing ever, so like place cardyeah yeah, it was a hell of a
texas chic, because I saw onethat happened in austin at um, I
forgot what, what place it wascalled, but it kind of looked
like it was round top but it'snot and it was just a big ranch
area and whatever and it lookedsuper cool and I was like, okay,
I could get down with that,yeah.
(13:30):
But you know, yeah, it's, it's.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Yeah, I mean, you know, people like different
things.
I personally wouldn't wouldn'tdo a rustic wedding either black
tie, oh yeah, oh yeah I, I wantme too.
I want black tie, I wantchandeliers, I want you know,
like, like, like a moody vibelike call me when you're ready,
all right just book a bridethat's going to be getting
married at Redberry Estate.
(13:52):
Love it.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
And that's exactly what she's going for.
Black tie moody, elegant,romantic.
Lots of personal touches, lotsof personal touches, lots of
white roses, and I was like, ohmy gosh, this is, this is.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, I mean I won my guest.
I mean I'm talking about mywedding, like if I'm actually
going to have a wedding.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
But you never know, you never know, never say never.
I met my husband and six monthslater we were married.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Oh, look at you yeah, no.
So I want my wedding.
I want everybody to wear black,like that is.
You know, maybe I did a weddingonce where everybody was
wearing black or white and itlooked really, really cool I
think then you gotta throw insome floral um color though so
you gotta have some color.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It can't be all black .
Yeah, no for sure.
Yeah, like the people wearingblack for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
But then the decor.
You know like I would love tomake it like a, like a hunter
green, like a burgundy, like alike a gold dish let's get you
married.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Look at me planning my wedding you definitely need
to do it in the fall, becausethose are definitely fall colors
I can't handle myself planningmy wedding you have a
significant other
Speaker 3 (14:51):
I do, I do okay, so let's hop to it all right.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Well, surprises are coming.
You're listening you have tomarry, oh my goodness, I can't
even handle myself right nowplanning my, my bogus wedding
here.
It'll be a good one?
No, but seriously, I think.
And so when it comes to um, youknow, speaking of, you know,
like going back to, okay, nowit's getting hot in here.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
We're making you nervous.
We're really interviewing here,right?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I feel like I mean the roles have turned here.
Now you're interviewing me, no,but seriously, when it comes to
the trends, I guess.
Now, when it comes to thecontent creation, so I mean that
is so popular right now, oh,yeah, content creation, so I
mean, that is so popular rightnow.
Yeah, that's a trend.
So, I guess, walk me throughthe process of content creation,
because, of course, you know,something that most couples have
(15:39):
is a videographer.
So what I would say, I guess,what is the main difference,
other than, of course, the typeof equipment that you use for
the content creation?
What is the main differencebetween a videographer and a
content creator?
Speaker 3 (15:53):
So I always tell brides if they're interested in
videography or content creation.
I always say it's either goingto be a great addition to your
videographer or a greatsupplement to videography.
If it's a great addition, I'mgoing to be there capturing all
the behind the scenes.
I'm going to get anything thatyou want.
I'm going to get everything theTikToks that you want to make
(16:13):
like whatever it is like, I'mgoing to get it.
And you're going to getthousands of videos delivered to
you the night or sorry, the dayafter your wedding.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
But I will say it's not just TikToks and like trendy
dances, no, it's like sweetmoments, like we just did Behind
the scenes.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
We just did a really sweet wedding at the Vadir in
Wimberley and their family wasextremely, extremely religious
and I wouldn't consider myselfsuper religious, however,
there's just the connection oftheir family and everything was
so precious.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
And I.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I captured this really intimate moment that I
don't even think I was supposedto capture because I didn't like
warn me they were doing it.
But they were just in thebridal suite and the mom and the
groom's mom and all thebridesmaids and grandparents
were praying over the bride andtouching her and like they had a
moment of silence for fiveminutes.
And it was like.
So I started crying.
(17:08):
I was like I barely know thisbride, Like I only got to know
her because we booked each other.
But, like I was like, oh my gosh, like this is so sweet.
So it's just things like thatthat I don't think a
videographer is going totechnically capture, because
with a videographer, um, they'restill I think they're still
very viable and they're stillneeded, um, but they're going to
(17:28):
capture lots of things and thenedit it down into one highlight
video or maybe a couplehighlight videos, Whereas with
content, you are gettingcomplete raw things from your
day the day after your event.
So you get to go back with yourfamily and just look over all
those special moments and thenyou're also going to get edited
videos on top of that, and thenyou can edit the videos yourself
(17:49):
on top of that for like afraction to what videography
costs.
So I just always tell bridesit's either a great addition to
videography and it's, I thinkeverybody should have it or it's
a really great supplement.
Whichever.
Whichever way you roll.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
And I think, yeah, they're both really, um,
important on the wedding dayCause I think the videography,
um, you know, I want to havethat, that formal video that I
can watch with my family.
In 10 years, you know, like,they're probably not gonna be
watching the video on mySnapchat or my camera roll, but
but I think that in the shortterm, the next morning, I want
to wake up and see all thosebehind the scene moments and I
want to have that little snippetto post on Instagram, and so I
(18:25):
think that they're both reallyimportant and really cool to
have.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
And I have brides too , that, like, aren't really
concerned with social media.
They're just like I just reallywant certain things captured
and you know I don't I'mprobably not going to post them,
but I just like to have themand I want them in a folder that
I can go back and just onlywatch this one 20 second clip of
me walking down the aisle, or Ijust want the 20 second clip of
(18:50):
my niece and nephew carryingthe rings, or whatever it may be
.
And so I think where themisconception comes is like
people are hiring contentcreators because, you know, they
need people for their socialmedia, which is not the case at
all.
I have tons and tons of bridesthat only hire content creation
because they want an addition tovideography, or they just want
(19:14):
all those little special momentsthat they can go look back at
without having to scroll througha longer video.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
So that makes sense.
And when you send the footageto them, how do you send that?
Is it like a gallery?
Is it a Dropbox folder?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
So I send them through Dropbox or Google Drive.
Dropbox for me lately has beena lot easier, but yeah, they get
a whole Dropbox folder ofeverything in it.
Honestly, I always say the dayafter, but if I have a moment I
kind of send them it the nightof, just because it's kind of
fun when you go back to whereveryou are with your groom or
(19:52):
bride or whatever, and then Isend you a link to it and you're
like so when it comes to Iguess, budgeting, you know, for
a wedding, we want to make sureour listeners know and you don't
have to be specific, but justan estimate how much does it
cost to hire a content creator?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
And then also, how long are you there?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Yeah, for so there's through moments there's
different packages, yeah, for sothere's through moments there's
different packages.
We have three different packages.
So they can either hire me fortheir entire day, and it's a
thousand, and so they basicallyget me from right before they
start to get dressed for the day, so right before the
photographer takes their gettingready photos, and then I'm
there till the very end, as soonas they walk out of the
(20:33):
reception hall.
And then we also have a packagethat includes just ceremony and
reception only.
Like I'm there right when theceremony begins and I'm there
just about when the receptionends, and then we also just have
like a lower package below that.
That's basically if you're justwanting me to just get content
of you for the getting readypart, or if you just want me to
(20:53):
get content of your ceremony, orif you just want me there for
the getting ready part, or ifyou just want me to get content
of your ceremony, or if you justwant me there for the reception
, so it can mix and minglebetween those three definitely
give them options and then theyjust, they just go from there.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I like that, I love it.
Yeah, so content creation, Imean that's where everything is
now.
You know, everybody wants to beon social media, everybody wants
to just send messages to eachother like chips and their ideas
exactly like for, for example,like with me, like I go through
my, my gallery on my phone and Idelete a lot of the stuff there
because I know that I have iton like instagram, or I have it
(21:26):
on on rarely facebook, but yeah,I like it, but yeah.
