Before every wedding, the business holds detailed strategy meetings, ensuring that every team member understands not only their tasks but also the couple’s vision, priorities, and expectations. Every individual involved in a wedding, whether setting up the reception or orchestrating a timeline, understands that their role contributes towards a greater mission: creating once in-a-lifetime celebrations. “While I currently work with a trusted network of coordinators, designers, and vendors, I am always open to expanding the team in a way that aligns with Red Velvet Weddings’ values,” Ise added. “Any future team members would need to share the same passion for bespoke experiences, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering stress-free, beautifully orchestrated celebrations. The goal would be to maintain the same level of intimacy and excellence, while allowing more couples to experience the magic of a Red Velvet wedding.” Maintaining this focus is essential to succeed in this landscape; the luxury destination wedding sector is constantly evolving, shaped by shifting travel trends, guest expectations, and global events. At present, Red Velvet Weddings has observed a strong emphasis on experiential and personalised weddings, where couples want to customise and extend their celebration beyond the wedding day into multi-day events that create lasting memories for themselves and their guests.
