It's not just wedding photography. It's universal.
Everything right now is about the gimmicks.
The big thing in the pj world a couple years back was strobist. Or
it's multi-media slideshows.
The big thing in the portrait world right now is the "Dave Hill" look
(http://www.davehillphoto.com/). I used to somewhat enjoy looking
through Rangefinder magazine when it came in, now it's filled with
that stuff.
For me it's the "lets use a tilt lens to reduce the depth of field and
make everything look like toys" effect. The first guy to do it was
creative and smart. All the copycats are... unimaginative copycats.
