A Barbie World Wedding: Plan Your Dream Barbie-Themed Wedding in Gibraltar

Introduction

Barbie is more than just a doll - she's an icon of glamour, style, and endless imagination. If you've ever dreamed of stepping into Barbie's world, why not let those dreams come to life on your wedding day? Gibraltar's stunning scenery offers the perfect backdrop for a fun and fabulous Barbie-themed wedding. Read on to discover how you can plan the ultimate Barbie World wedding with us in Gibraltar!

The Venue

Choosing the right venue is a crucial step in setting the tone for your Barbie-themed wedding. Gibraltar, with its beautiful landscapes, offers a plethora of locations to create your Barbie dream world. Perhaps you'd like an elegant ceremony in a grand hall reminiscent of Barbie's Dreamhouse, or maybe a beachside setting under the Gibraltar sun, evoking memories of Barbie's endless summer adventures.

The Decor

When it comes to decor, think pink! But remember, Barbie is versatile, so feel free to explore the spectrum of pink hues from soft blush to vibrant fuschia. Add glamorous touches with elements like chandeliers, sequins, and satin drapes. Incorporate vintage Barbie silhouettes and motifs for a touch of nostalgia, and consider adding thematic elements, like a tropical cocktail bar for a nod to Beach Barbie, or a red carpet photo area for Hollywood Barbie.

The Attire

Your Barbie-themed wedding is the perfect excuse to have fun with fashion. Brides can consider glamorous ballgowns or chic, form-fitting dresses that Barbie herself would love. Don't forget the sparkle - rhinestones, sequins, and glitter are all welcome! For the groom, think classic Ken – sharp suits in classic or playful colours, complete with bowties or ties.

The Menu

Bring your theme to life with a Barbie-inspired menu. Consider a cocktail hour with "Barbie-tinis" in bright pink, and a tiered wedding cake in Barbie's signature colour. You could even add a playful touch with childhood favorites, like gourmet cotton candy or mini sliders, just like at a Barbie picnic!

Photography

Capture the magic of your Barbie-themed wedding with a photographer who knows how to play up the theme. Think: posed shots that mimic classic Barbie and Ken packaging, or candid photos that capture the fun and glamour of the day.

Wedding Trends 2021

With most 2020 weddings more or less cancelled, we look towards 2021 and consider how COVID will shape future weddings. Hour Weddings Gibraltar has been in the industry for nearly 20 years now and although Gibraltar has not been as badly affected as the rest of Europe, we certainly feel the pain of our neighbouring countries and brides. 


Trend 1- Smaller crowds and outdoor venues

When investing in such a potentially expensive day, risking cancellation due to large numbers is something you do not want to dabble with. Keeping parties small mean you are more likely to go ahead with plans without last minute having to cut out beloved guests who may have paid to travel a long way to see you. Also, outdoor venues = circulation and comfortable guests who wont be terrified to come to a poorly ventilated party.

Trend 2- Elopement

Hour Weddings has already seen this trend picking up in Gibraltar. More couples are choosing to elope and travel alone abroad to get married? The prospect of cancelling, postponing and stressing is so 2020, couples are preparing with a romantic trip to a safe beautiful venue- Gibraltar anyone?


Trend 3- Live Stream + entertainment

Hour Weddings couples are asking to stream! Zoom and other popular sites which provide streaming services are becoming an ever more popular way to invite all your guests to your beautiful day. Another popular trend is entertainment via streaming services too, these include the first day and even live music. 

Trend 4- No canapés or buffets

I could not think of anything more 2019 than buffets and canapés, how could we ever go back to this method of serving food?! Hour Weddings have seen more sit down preferences and in most instances it has been removed from most wedding venues in Gibraltar.
