Okay, can we all agree we are now officially into a pandemic for what seems like 7 years, give or take? You have exhausted your at-home activities. You have watched everything on Netflix, twice around. You have baked so many loaves of bread, you are considering opening a bakery to be a lucrative business option for you. You are tired of working in your sweats which has jam stains on it or spending all your free time doom-scrolling through Instagram(oh look, cute tie-dye loungewear set!). The magical moment when that fiance of yours popped that question and you were so excited to go raring at all the wedding planning things seems like eons ago, something blurry in the past. If you are avoiding taking on all those wedding planning projects, because you want to wait and “do it the right way”, maybe this is the shake-up you needed. News Flash: the world isn’t going to return to its pre-pandemic stage in a snap of your fingers! It will take a while. And not all of your dreams have to be in pause until further notice. The good news is that the wedding scene is a lot more flexible now, and comes with options of getting married in your little backyard with 20 guests if you want it that way! And you can still get a lot done from home, from that same couch, in those same jam-stained sweats! After all, doesn’t working towards something in the future fills your heart with joy and magic? And we can bet you could use a little bit of both right now! As every week, as punctual as the hands of the clock, we are here with some links around the internet which can help you plan that wedding!
