Wedding Size
As we are moving out of the pandemic restrictions and gathering limitations are becoming more relaxed, couples are moving away from the micro weddings of 2020/2021 and celebrating with their family and friends once again. This means having to review guest lists and RSVPs once again – not the most favorite part of planning we know! It also means having more of your squad physically present to celebrate with you for your wedding day.
With the overall increase in wedding sizes being allowed, some couples who tied the knot in 2020/2021 and have been robbed of this experience have even decided to have sequel weddings or receptions for their 1st anniversary. Couples are having ceremony ‘do-overs’ and large receptions to recreate lasting memories. This is seeing an uptick in bookings for ideal locations for nuptials and receptions as well.
Invitations
There is nothing more wonderful than receiving a beautiful invitation to a couple’s special day. The past 2 years saw persons skipping formal invitations altogether. There was an increase in digital invitations or e-vites and websites. This was of course due to not only tech savvy couples but due to restrictions on numbers. Persons wanted to still share their special day with everyone even if they couldn’t physically be there. This led to invitations with live streaming links so persons could view from home. As restrictions have been relaxed people are once again creating beautiful invitations to send out to their friends and family.

Trending Themes
As restrictions are being lifted some couples are deciding to invite more friends and family to their private affairs. One popular theme which is definitely trending is Garden Weddings. Many couples are opting to utilize their backyard and other garden areas to create stunning, scenic settings complete with flower walls and natural décor.
In the United States summer brides are taking advantage of the outdoors and having beautifully curated ceremonies and receptions while embracing the fresh air of the outdoors. To achieve this theme private outdoor locations or backyards are transformed into a garden paradise for a celebration with family and friends.
Color Combinations
Having been on lockdowns a lot of people have become more environmentally conscious as well as more self aware. For 2022 more earthy tones are in. Think rustic themes, burnt oranges, sunset hues, earthy greens. Colors inspired by nature and more flowers.
Persons have also done a lot of introspection over the past few years and are more focused on their happiness and being more fulfilled in life, As such there is an increase in the abandoning of traditional gold and green wedding colors for more bold color statements to reflect the couple’s personality and interests.
Destinations Weddings
After 2 years of travel restrictions, missed vacations and not being able to explore the world couples are definitely looking into destination weddings. Persons are moving their entire wedding party and guests to locations with fewer restrictions. They are hiring destination wedding planners and jetting off to tropical paradise. Many international resorts have wedding packages which not only offer wedding services but may include a free night or room based on the chosen package or size of your wedding party.
Bonus Tip: Be sure to check COVID-19 vaccinations and testing requirements for entry to destinations as well as return requirements. Some countries may still require negative test results no later than a few days prior to departure. Your worst nightmare would be having to be quarantined instead of enjoying your wedding day!
