The year behind us has greatly shaken the wedding industry, as evidenced by the wedding trends of 2021!
The coronavirus pandemic also hit the wedding industry hard in 2020 - it includes several other smaller industries: from venue providers, caterers, musicians, wedding dress providers, photographers, florists, decorators, etc. And all of these areas and employees felt the decrease in traffic greatly. With the hope that 2021 will be better, many couples have postponed their big weddings and are waiting for their moment.
Whether the situation in 2021 will be more favorable for large weddings and celebrations with more guests is difficult to predict, but certainly the current situation has put the wind at the back of one big trend, which undoubtedly is not for everyone, but it has brought wonderful, special stories. Of course, it's about minimalism.
Wedding trend 2021 no. 1: minimalism
Even if everything returns to normal, the appeal of micro weddings is hard to deny. A growing number of couples have been moving towards smaller and more intimate weddings anyway, so this is a step in the right direction, but perhaps too extreme for some. For sure, this trend brings less problems around the organization, fewer gray hairs due to guests and seating order, simpler wedding dresses and menus and ultimately a much smaller budget needed to make one such story come true.

And most importantly? The specialty of this day remains. It's still a celebration of the love of two people who have decided to enter into marriage, but it's more intimate, more special, and definitely a memory they'll be talking about for years to come.
What are the other 2021 wedding trends that Pinterest predicts?
With all of the above in mind, in its already traditional New Year's predictions, Pinterest collected the search results of its platform and compiled a list of the trends that will rule until 2021 based on the search strings that record the greatest increase.
A town hall is always a good idea
More and more couples decide to exchange vows in the town hall, mainly because of the spontaneity and relaxation of the event.
The yard behind the house as an ideal location
If you have a house, it is possible to organize a small wedding in the yard. It takes some imagination to arrange the surroundings beautifully, and the intimate location will allow you to relax to the maximum.

Small cakes that you prepare at home
Few guests also means that you don't need a multi-tiered wedding cake, and you can also bake it yourself - you'll have to put a little more effort into decorating it.
Escape
Do you like the idea of escaping somewhere alone and exchanging vows in a special place, or exchanging vows somewhere you've really wanted to travel? The getaway is for adventurous couples who won't regret not having guests and will share the best memories by themselves.
