10 Ridiculous Wedding Themes

— September 28, 2008 — Lifestyle
The ghetto wedding has got to be one of the most questionable choices around in terms of wedding themes.

At least, that’s what you'd think before checking out the rest of these bizarre wedding themes, which include encouraging guests to eat you with a life-sized cake of yourself and this Super Mario wedding cake. 

Implications - Weddings are no longer seen as the merging of man and wife; instead, marriage represents the partnership of two individuals with their own personalities and opinions. Thus, modern couples are looking for more creative ceremonies that highlight the love between two people and the two people themselves. Thus, event planning companies should take note that the more expressive the ceremony, the better.
Trend Themes
1. Expressive-ceremony Trend - Couples are looking for more creative ceremonies that highlight their personalities, offering event planning companies opportunities to create unique and expressive wedding experiences.
2. Personalized Themes Trend - Weddings now represent the partnership of two individuals with their own personalities and opinions, leading to a demand for personalized and unconventional wedding themes.
3. Life-sized Cake Trend - The trend of creating life-sized cakes of the couple provides an opportunity for bakeries and dessert shops to offer unique wedding cakes that amaze and entertain guests.
Industry Implications
1. Event Planning Industry - Event planning companies should take note of the expressive-ceremony trend and cater to the demand for creative and personalized wedding experiences.
2. Wedding Industry - The wedding industry can tap into the personalized themes trend by offering unconventional and customized wedding packages and services.
3. Bakery Industry - The life-sized cake trend presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for bakeries and dessert shops to create unique wedding cakes that stand out and create a memorable experience for guests.
