Amy Shey Jacobs, the founder of Chandelier Events, told INSIDER that she works with many vegetarian or vegan couples who want their menus to reflect their values and dietary lifestyles.
"It used to be that a lot of venues didn't have a vegetarian option listed on the menu," Jacobs said. "It was the silent option. It was the secret you whispered to the server."
She continued: "I think that's very old-fashioned and non-inclusive now."
As couples become increasingly considerate of guests with dietary restrictions, expect to see more interesting options like zucchini noodles or cauliflower steaks, Jacobs said.
Mobile desserts will take over for large decadent displays.

Extravagant dessert displays may sound amazing in theory, but they're not as great in practice, Jacobs said.
"[Dessert rooms] can pull people off the dance floor right when they're getting cooking," she explained.
According to Jacobs, more couples are serving desserts on carts or passable trays, so guests can keep the party going.
Signature cocktails will give way to signature bars.

"Mixology is increasingly available and desirable by couples," Jacobs said.
