REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, YOGYAKARTA — Hotel is now a favorite place for young couples who want to have a wedding. From a recent survey conducted by Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts, 38 percent of Generation Z (Gen Z) billed hotels as their wedding location plan.

The number of Gen Z choosing the hotel was higher than neighbourhoods such as homes and mosques (22.3 per cent), outdoor areas (18.7 per cent), and buildings (14.5 per cent).

“The trend of young people's wedding venues has changed especially post-pandemic because Gen Z mostly want locations that are considered more practical,” said Corporate Loyalty Program Manager of Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts, Anwar Riksono, during a press conference witnessed from Yogyakarta on Tuesday (30/1/2024).

Anwar explained Gen Z considers hotels to be a practical place because there are room facilities. This is not found if couples perform weddings in mosques, outdoor areas, or buildings. However, for Gen Z, the main reason for choosing a hotel is because there are usually promos provided.

“The two generations above it, Gen X and Gen Y, made rooms the main reason for choosing a hotel. In addition, it is also because there are complete facilities in the hotel,” he said.

Responding to the changing trend, Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts launched the Santika Best Wedding Deals 2024: Forever Beginning program for couples planning their weddings.
