6 Timeless Wedding Trends to Film for Viral Bridal TikTok Content
I’m Alyssa Sumption, the wedding content creator behind Social Assumptions, based in Grand Rapids and filming all over the Midwest. My job is to turn real moments into scroll-stopping clips without pulling you out of your day, and after hundreds of timelines, I can tell you: the trends that truly last are the ones rooted in classic, emotional storytelling.
This guide breaks down six timeless wedding trends that reliably take off on TikTok while not being cringy in 10 years.
Filming Downtown GR Wedding Content
Downtown Grand Rapids, MI, makes this easy. Within a few blocks, you’ve got river light, reflective glass, modern lines, and historic texture—perfect for quick “mini scenes” without blowing up the timeline. I’ll flag the best light windows, crowd workarounds, and how I stack shots so editing is fast and the vibe stays calm.
PRO TIP - Make it easy on yourself. A wedding content creator shadows your day without interrupting it—coordinating with your photo/video team, staying out of the aisle, and catching everything you actually want to remember. Check out my packages here.
