Small weddings
But just how everyone’s suddenly treasuring Sundays with their parents and backyard dates with their children, the pandemic has stripped weddings back down to its essentials.
“The biggest gain for me is having to do intimate weddings again,” said Uy-Agregado. “There is something beautiful about pared down weddings. It becomes all about the couple and less about everything else.” She also added that the COVID-19 challenges forced the industry to do what it does best – think of creative ways to make this milestone even more special. For their couples, she has been organizing online weddings, recreating the celebration of love virtually. Video suppliers have also ventured into streaming, which allows guests to watch the affair even remotely.
Acetre believes that intimate weddings are here to stay in the foreseeable future because of the uncertainty of vaccination and cost-cutting measures. “I think until a good majority of the population is vaccinated or the number of new cases decline significantly, these precautions are here to stay.”
But regardless of the kind of wedding couples get, these top suppliers are reminding everyone not to lose sight of what’s important.
