Advent of Digital Wedding Invitations Ever since the pandemic has started, work from home setup has been our life for quite some time. We barely go out and everything now could be done online. Shopping? There are numerous online shops to choose from. Ordering food? There are multiple food delivery apps available at the tip of your fingers. So what I'm trying to say is that, since we’re doing everything online lately, might as well send out those invitations through email or other online messaging apps. It’s another cost-cutting measure for you! Don’t get me wrong though. Getting traditional invites in fine paper with fancy print does really make your guests feel special but as beautiful as those invitations are, believe me, or not, they’re just gonna get lost and get stuck somewhere. So you just better send them out digital invites than pay for a full suite of printed stationery. Also, the upside here is that if details change because you know, we’re still in a pandemic so everything is still uncertain if when will we be under lockdown again or so forth, the necessary information can be updated and resent to guests without having the cost of a complete reprint. You can also create a wedding website where all the wedding information, accommodations, and everything are provided in there. Digital communications are definitely one of the things that are all hugely on wedding trends for 2022. 2. Adults Only A lot of weddings nowadays become exclusively for adults only. It could be due to the fact that a lot of children are not yet vaccinated, so safer for all.

However, we all know that one of the best memories from childhood is at weddings! But you know, you can just leave your kids to your trusted family member, better be safe than sorry! 3. Outdoor Weddings A third trend that we're really seeing is the rise in outdoor weddings. A lot of couples are opting for outdoor venues as opposed to indoor venues given the open-air setting and people feeling more comfortable gathering that way.
