Sustainability is a key focus in 2025. Oshkosh couples are choosing reusable decor, local catering, and eco-conscious venues. Even entertainment is going green, with digital song requests to reduce paper waste.

With popular venues booking up fast, weekday weddings are becoming the go-to choice. Not only does this trend offer cost savings, but it also allows couples to snag those sought-after dates at Oshkosh hotspots.  Ask about discounts on weekdays as well as often most vendors will include one for weddings and events that don't fall on Fridays or Saturdays.
