Customize your own event checklist with due dates, personal reminders, and timelines for all your wedding to do’s.
If you haven't seen Back to the Future Part II, consider taking a trip back in time to your local video rental store... In the 1980s cult classic, Marty McFly and Doc Brown time-travel from October 25th, 1985 to October 21st, 2015, making today "Back to the Future" Day. Fans of the film have been flocking to social media to critique what the movie creators got right (yes, you really can unlock your front door with your fingerprint) and what they got totally wrong (uh, where are our hoverboards?!), and it got us thinking about the future of weddings.
While we can't promise complete accuracy here, we've rounded up eight wedding trend predictions you just might spot in another thirty years.
1. Smart Engagement Rings.
They keep track of your wedding planning to-dos, give you helpful etiquette advice, and even tell you you how stunning you look in all of those wedding dresses you're trying on...
2. "I Dos" On-Demand.
Got a couple of guests who couldn't manage to teleport all the way to your wedding? They'll be able to cast a 3-D hologram of your ceremony in the comfort of their own living rooms.
3. Instant RSVPs.
Forget paying for postage! After reviewing the wedding invitation, a guest can simply state "Yes" or "No," and the answer will be telecommunicated back to the hosts.
4. Robot Maid of Honors.
No need to panic when your MOH isn't available to stuff envelopes. Simply hire a Maid of Honor robot to do all the mundane tasks your actual bestie doesn't want to do! 5. Real Time Wedding Photos. The second your photographer snaps a photo, it's wirelessly transported to the cloud and shared with all your guests.
6. Self-Bustling Dresses.
Forget all those hooks and eyes. With the push of a button, your dress just bustles itself, so you can spend more time on the dance floor (or maybe ceiling?).
7. Dehydrated Wedding Food.
Yes, Back to the Future style. Just place each miniature four-course meal in a hydrator and you'll have a complete wedding entree in seconds. Super cost effective.
8. Weddings in Space.
Hey, if you're looking for an out of this world venue... (See what we did there?)
