Corona Weddings


You woke up with a cold or flu one morning and think it will go away. You start by putting your plans on hold for a suitable time or date in the future. A week, a month passes and the reality dawns on you: it wasn't a short term illness....it was chronic.  That's the new norm and life has to continue.
This is what Coronavirus has meant for all aspects of life. Weddings haven't been exempted from this either. The changes have somewhat meant: no large weddings at least into the foreseeable future.  With many ceremonies shorter and having upto 30 guests. That automatically means, you no longer have to explain why someone isn't invited to your wedding.
The pandemic also brought lockdown that affected alot of businesses.  The ones that had already been struggling with a difficult economy  and even the ones that had booked clients had similar fate. That meant from mid march to sometimes in June or July, it wasn't a guarantee in this industry of having work or the wedding couple enjoying their day.
I could go on with the challenges that have come up but that would be keeping things on the negative side. It's time to rebuild and hopefully,  the few months left in the year will get things off to a good start for 2021. For now, I'd like to readdress : the wedding contact and saving for the wedding.  Be on the look out for my next article.
