Millennials are seeking self expression in their weddings
As a Sonoma wedding photographer, I am continually watching for modern trends in weddings. A most informative article was in the New York Times, November 3, 2010 issue about Millennials and their desire to “stand out, not just follow the rules.” This is called the personalization trend. Surprise, surprise! This generation was raised by the Baby Boomers who felt the same way at that time in their life.
Millennials are not interested in normal traditions of the typical wedding ceremony. They want to write their own script that reflects who they are. I had a young couple from Seattle who had no interest in a wedding cake or flowers. They wanted all of their resources spent on having a grand time with their friends and family.
Frankly, I find this challenge very refreshing working with these young people in trying to document their story as they would like it told. I love to hear their creative ideas. It is as if we are creating a masterpiece together and I get to be part of their team making it happen.
