To better understand people's views of wedding traditions, Helzberg Diamonds recently issued a survey to 1,000 U.S. millennials and found that a resounding 91% of those surveyed would consider eloping, and 63% of already-married millennials would elope if they had to do it all over again. Inspired by the survey data, and by couples who shared their wedding plans with associates across the country, the company decided to invite couples to get "Hitched at Helzberg."
"We listen to our customers, and know that many wish to modernize current wedding traditions," said Beryl Raff, chairman and chief executive officer of Helzberg Diamonds. "We discovered that not only did we already have some ordained associates on staff, a few stores had also performed marriage ceremonies upon request! Inspired by these stories, we wanted to become the destination that could, and would, officiate for these couples in a relaxed and comfortable environment."
Elevating the in-store experience
Beginning Oct. 2, 2019, couples interested in getting "Hitched at Helzberg" just need to bring their partner and their marriage license to their nearest Helzberg Diamonds location – no purchase necessary. Ordained associates will be available to perform free marriage ceremonies during regular work hours in any Helzberg Diamonds location.
"The Universal Life Church has a long and proud history of making the institution of marriage more personal and more accessible," said Rev. George Freeman, presiding chaplain of the ULC. "We're excited to welcome new members into the ULC family and are thrilled that so many associates of Helzberg Diamonds chose to get ordained."
Couples who plan to get "Hitched at Helzberg" will be responsible for securing and submitting their marriage licenses and witnesses in accordance with their state laws prior to the ceremony. Participating couples will receive a custom celebration kit from Helzberg Diamonds following the ceremony, including a commemorative marriage certificate.
Shifting marriage trends
The recent survey data uncovered additional trends and perceptions of modern love and romance, including:
