In the past year, the wedding industry certainly has been shaken up a bit. Our expectations of a traditional wedding may be taking a back seat for the foreseeable future. What is the “new normal” for weddings in 2021?

We’re nixing big guest lists and packed ballrooms.

Before, we felt the need to invite all our friends and family to a big, full room filled with guests. Now we are looking at a minimal approach and keeping guests lists small and spread out. What’s great about new trends such as micro-weddings and minimonies is the one-on-one time with your guests that makes your day (and theirs!) more special.

Tent weddings and outdoor venues are more popular.

Everyone wants to get married outside! Traditional indoor weddings are opening their doors to open spaces and tented receptions. Creating that lush, elegant feel in an outdoor space is the new trend!

Amplified décor.

A smaller wedding means more room for décor and creativity. Since the budget shifts when less guests are attending, that means more funds for lavish décor, big floral arrangements, and unique elements when combining outdoor spaces and tented areas.
