Hey y’all and welcome back to the blog! This week we are continuing our series on 2021 wedding trends! This week our Director of Sales, Annsley, is giving her opinions on wedding trends for 2021! Let's get started!
Tented Events
As we work with clients who are planning events for spring and fall of 2021 and even into 2022, a big trend I see is tented events. I think now more than ever, people are looking for spaces outdoors to gather. Whether that is for dining, weddings, social events, etc. Tents are a key factor in outdoor events as tents create a space to gather. I think when most people think of a tent, their first thought is a basic frame tent. However, at SOHO we see tents as a framework to build off of. Tents create a temporary structure for many fun accessories: flooring, draping, floral installations, custom branding, etc. There are countless ways to customize your tented space to create a unique experience for you and your guests.

Another trend I see is event flooring! This is personally one of my favorites. I had flooring at my wedding 4 years ago and at that point it wasn’t something that we saw a lot of. Now, I feel like this is a priority for some of our clients. I believe flooring can change the look of an event. Until you can experience an event with flooring, it is hard to understand how much of a difference flooring makes! I love before and after photos of a tent with flooring. It completely transforms the space! Flooring also opens another door of customization options. Not only are there many options for the finish of flooring you choose, we can also do porch extensions with acrylic railings. This hands down elevates the experience for your guests creating a “wow” factor!
Branded Events
A trend I have seen continued to grow in our region over the last few years is event branding! Custom wraps whether it is for dancefloors, bar and stage façade inserts, tents, etc. I personally love the customization this can add to an event. I don't see this trend going anywhere anytime soon… I think this is just the beginning for event branding!

Our team continues to push the boundaries in all of these three areas. We love creating unique experiences for our clients!
