Also, masks and gloves will be offered for safety, that too while matching according to the overall theme, décor and style of the wedding. For dinners, most couples may prefer plated meals instead of the buffet in the near future.
Preference for Online and Digital Ways for Wedding Shopping: Any wedding cannot be imagined without lots of shopping. Online marketing trends were already increasing and the COVID-19 crisis has fastened the process. People will get more comfortable going digital for collaborations and bookings if that situation continued. The eCommerce businesses related to costumes, jewellery, and gifts, have already observed a noticeable increase in their business. Bride, groom and their families are now home and shopping more online and hence, there has been a spike. That trend is going to grow with times.
