We knew this day would come, we just didn’t think it would be here so soon - Gen Z is getting married.

In this episode of #GenZ, Meghan Grace sits down with Adrienna McDermott, founder of Ava and The Bee, to unpack what’s really shaping how Gen Z approaches weddings—and what that reveals about how they make decisions more broadly.

Because this is about much more than weddings. It’s about what’s underneath it all that drives their consumer decisions around big life moments.

From industry insights to real-time client behavior, Meghan and Adrienna explore why Gen Z couples are:

Doing significantly more research before making decisions

Expecting full transparency in pricing and process

Prioritizing guest experience and community over tradition for tradition’s sake

Balancing individuality with trend-driven aesthetics

Planning faster, but with higher expectations

While those shifts might feel disruptive, this episode reframes them with depth: Gen Z is redefining weddings with intention, values, and a focus on meaningful experiences.
