On Friday Triple B intern Janee included a piece on a growing trend in the bridal biz: the social media wedding concierge. This is what it means in a nutshell:

For a mere $3,000, couples getting hitched at any select four W hotels in New York can hire their very own “social media wedding concierge” to make sure every moment of their special day is properly immortalized in tweets, Instagrams and Facebook posts.

This concierge will be involved with the wedding from the very beginning, acting as an amateur Instagram-ographer, documenting bits of the planning process such as cake tasting and dress shopping. He or she will even help create inspirational Pinterest boards.

On the wedding day, the concierge will live-tweet and Instagram the entire affair. They’ll make sure your guests all use the same hashtag while posting from their phones during the ceremony and reception. (Is there anything more embarrassing than sloppy cousins using #ashleyandbrock instead of #ashleyandbrockforever?)

When it’s over, the hotel will compile the best posts into a book.

In a word folks, I think this is absolutely nuts. Having just planned my own wedding, I can assure you that there are many other ways most couples can use three grand toward their nuptials. But then again Mr. TK and I had an unplugged wedding ceremony so that gives you an idea of what priority we placed on social media for our big day. But to each their Tweeting, Instagraming and Facebooking own…

What are your thoughts on this? If your budget allowed, would you consider this service for your wedding day? Do you suspect other hotels and wedding venues will follow the W’s lead?
