We recently connected with Kelci Zicconi and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Kelci thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Let’s start big picture – what are some of biggest trends you are seeing in your industry?
Biggest trends in the wedding industry right now are elopements, run -a- way brides and micro weddings!
Micro Weddings:
Brides are wanting a more intimate wedding ceremony & reception with a lot more details. They are focusing on details, their budget is going a lot further and they are ultimately doing what they really want at the end of the day!
Smaller guest counts, dress changes, plated intimate dinners, and the eye for detail is what I have been seeing with my brides!
I absolutely love this! This makes the planning process easy and seamless because the bride is not stressed, she is focusing on what she wants and everyone around her is supporting it!
Elopements are SO fun. Bride and groom get-a-ways, amazing locations and STUNNING photos!
Courthouse weddings are making a comeback and I am so here for it! This takes the stress off of the couple and they can plan a party and or reception later down the road!
Kelci , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I have been in the wedding planning industry for years. My passion for weddings and events has been at an all-time high over the last year in a post COVID world with new opportunities and a whole new look to the wedding industry. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding she plans, and her attention to detail is second to none. My mission is to make all of your wedding dreams come true, and I am ready to aid in the planning of the most badass wedding of the YEAR, that your guests will be talking about for decades to come.
I am bright, bold and full of personality! I love a good challenge and I love to use my creativeness and expertise to guide you through this process! Always down to have a chat, grab a coffee or a glass of wine and work with you through this fun and exciting, yet stressful time in your life!
I absolutely love, love! Weddings are a sacred experience for you and your partner no matter how big or small. A true celebration of the love you share, and the unique ability to share that love with everyone important to you. Trusting someone with an event like this should not be taken lightly, that is why it is of the utmost importance that I take your special day seriously and handle it with care.
I offer an all inclusive full plan and design package! This allows me to hold your hand through the whole process and make the planning and design aspect a breeze!
