Make your special day really #memorable
A boutique hotel chain's been thinking outside the box (maybe) when it comes to services it offers for weddings.
W Hotels in New York has unveiled Social Media Wedding Concierge.
The service promises to rid your special day of “shameless wedding selfies” and replace them with an array of innovative – but arguably increasingly cringey – concepts, including “live tweeting of the ceremony and reception”.
The chain, which has reception venues at all four of its New York hotels, pairs the live tweeting with “encouraging guests to utilise hashtag and handles as they post to social media”.
It offers set up and maintenance of a Wedding Blog before and after the big day, along with curating a Pinterest board wish list to inspire honeymoon ideas for the bride and groom.
The idea is that social media posting in conventional forms is old hat, and couples may want to branch out.
The service can include “borrowing” (a play on “something borrowed”) one of W’s social media experts to document the occasion.
The hotel can also put together a Shutterfly book, Instagram photos and Vine videos of the wedding. With so many bases covered, it seems difficult to believe that a moment could possibly missed.
The rate is $3,000, if you fancy it.
