Metro spoke to Hamish Shephard, the founder of Bridebook.co.uk about all things marital to find out what his predictions are for next year's weddings.

He revealed that since 2020 is a leap year, the tradition of seeing women propose will be alive and kicking, with lots of trending videos predicted for February 29th.

Documenting the proposals and making them super extravagant has been growing massively in popularity over the past few years and it's only set to get even more popular in the forthcoming year.

In terms of dresses Phillipa Lepley, a fashion designer has said that we will see an increase in princess dresses, with huge skirts trains and veils - just like in a fairytale.

Having a second wedding dress for the evening is also becoming incresingly popular.

When it comes to food, Hamish has stated that vegan and free-from menus will grow, as opposed to your usual fish or meat choices.

He said: "The rapid growth in vegetarian and veganism, especially in the millennial generation, has led to an increase in such foods being served at weddings.

"Even couples who aren’t themselves vegans are more empathetic than ever before, and they are keen to cater for guests with all dietary requests."

Grazing tables and buffet spreads are on the rise, as are personalised cocktail menus with lots of gin.
