    Weddings 2025 Wrapped: What Actually Changed & How to Plan Smarter for 2026 (Ep 6)

    Send us a text If you planned a wedding in 2025, you probably made very different choices than couples did a few years ago — even if you didn’t realise it. In this episode of The Aisle Afterparty, wedding photographers Adam & Amber, videographer Harry, and DJ Dean break down what actually changed in weddings throughout 2025 — not trends, not predictions, but real patterns we saw week after week on real wedding days — and what couples planning a 2026 wedding should take from it. This isn’t about what looks good on Pinterest. It’s about what made weddings feel better. 💍 What we cover in this episode: • Experience over aesthetics Why couples in 2025 stopped obsessing over décor and started prioritising comfort, flow, food, and atmosphere — and why guests noticed immediately. • Shorter, tighter wedding timelines Later starts, fewer filler moments, less downtime - and how protecting energy made weddings feel calmer and more fun. • Traditions becoming optional From cake cuttings to first dances and receiving lines, why couples felt more confident skipping traditions that didn’t earn their place. • Smarter wedding budgets (not smaller ones) How couples reallocated spend, cut low-impact upgrades, and made clearer decisions about what actually mattered. • Intentional wedding content The rise of next-day highlights, short-form video, and content creators - without turning the wedding into a production. • What quietly faded in 2025 Over-styled tables, wedding favours, packed schedules, and anything that interrupted momentum. • Mistakes couples still made — and how to avoid them in 2026 Time misjudgements, emotional burnout, over-pleasing, and decisions guests never noticed. • What we expect more of in 2026 Later starts, calmer timelines, hybrid memories (pro photos + fast content), and personalisation without performance. 🎧 Listener Q&A: Planning for 2026 We answer real questions from couples about: • What to prioritise first • Which “trends” to ignore completely • Breaking traditions without family fallout • Making a wedding feel personal without it being gimmicky • The one thing couples will regret not planning for If you’re planning a 2026/2027 wedding, work in the wedding industry, or just want honest insight into how weddings are actually evolving, this episode will help you make calmer, smarter decisions — without the noise. Great weddings aren’t flawless. They’re intentional. Support the show 🎧 The Aisle Afterparty — where the wedding chat doesn’t stop at “I do”.

Whether you love weddings, work them, or are just here for the chaos, this episode gives you a hilarious peek behind the curtain at the people who unintentionally steal the show. 💍 In this episode: • The most iconic (and chaotic) guest types we see • Behind-the-scenes stories we’ll be laughing about forever • Why every wedding has “that one guest” — and how to spot them Support the show 🎧 The Aisle Afterparty — where the wedding chat doesn’t stop at “I do”.
