Tips to plan your Wedding during the Corona Virus Pandemic
Planning a wedding is no doubt the biggest investment for an one day event in your entire life but then ask first how much does a wedding certificate cost, I don’t know if they increase it because of covid.
Planned to marry your childhood sweetheart, or got engaged to your best friend in college , or like 74 percent of indian millenials your parents set you two up and you were all set to go down the wedding path ?! Doesn’t matter how you two met , what matters is that you’re gonna be together for the rest of your life through thick and thin, sickness and health, pain and happiness . Talking of obstacles , the mammoth in your way is the epidemic but you don’t wanna submit to it , do you?
We’re here to get you past the fear and stigma of the covid-19 pandemic and help you organise the wedding ceremony of your dreams , even in such hard times. No one will stop to create the spectacular , Delhi’s famous , big fat indian wedding . The world is getting online and so should your wedding extravaganza. Getting you set for the big day , here’s what you need to plan thoroughly.
● Plan plan plan!
Setting up some rules and negotiation between two parties is a must before any kind of arrangement is done. Decide collectively about the budget and lay a detailed plan on what to include in the ceremony given the special condition.
● Health is wealth
Prioritize your and your relatives’ health and get yourself known to the maximum allowed visitors for the occasion and all the safety measures that need to be taken to organise an event in the pandemic.
● Send those invites
Guests need to be invited and no physical contact is the need of the hour . Email invites have got you covered . Feasible and virtual, it’s the best option to inform your dear ones about your life changing moment . Remember the lesser people ,who physically attend the wedding, the better!
● Minimalism
Keep it low on the shopping spree for the wedding as going out isn’t appropriate and even online shopping might get you in trouble. Shop for the essential and stick to a tight budget list.
● Capture the moment
Not everyone would be present in the
wedding , so the memories created must be preserved for the relatives whose internet issues seem greater than the environmental issues we’re facing. Hire the best of Delhi’s wedding photographers, that is choose VideoTailor Wedding Photography Services to capture the essence of your togetherness and love in a photograph.
● Sanitize you guys!
Cleanliness and hygiene are the trend so set the ambience of the venue ( best if it’s your own house) brand new by keeping proper sanitary methods on point. Accomodation and well being of guests is your responsibility , don’t forget.
● Give your appearance the panache.
It’s your wedding and you got a long break due to the pandemic . Why not make your skin glow with all the enrichment of face masks and a hearty meal everyday to keep your immunity and skin, brilliant and camera ready for a rare iconic pandemic wedding .
● Ask me? Mask it!
Talking of face masks, there’s hundreds of people coming up with customisable masks to protect from the corona virus spread , or you can organize a fun game for guests to make their own face mask matching with their outfit for the wedding. Making you a woke and fun wedding planner altogether.
● Maintain the distance!
Though the lockdown is over but social distancing can’t be ignored, concluding that there won’t be many people to share your happiness in proximity. Indian weddings without all the relatives and their relatives and the friends ,aren’t the show everyone likes – so the practical wedding is the way to go , plan your budget taking both pros and cons with considerably less people and make the best out of it. ( one pro is everyone’s getting a picture with you without you being extremely exhausted 😉 )
● Eat heartiest , healthiest!
Delhi wedding and food isn’t the talk of the attendees? Not gonna happen. Prefer home-made authentic food and if necessary order food from a trusted food outlet. Tempt your taste buds but include food that makes your immunity exponentially strong. Government guidelines and WHO recommendations for a proper intake must be followed.
● Don’t forget to have fun!
Wedding ceremonies are serious business for the bride and groom’s families but a bit entertainment is mandatory . Coordinate your bollywood dance moves with others on the good old Skype or Zoom but don’t forget to record the performance on the D-Day. After all what’s the effort , if not captured as candid wedding photography and made to trend on instagram.
● Presents will be present!
Wedding gifts won’t be surplus but those that you get should be covid-19 free. Make a heap of them and make your photographer click a pic and don’t forget to sanitize the lot.
There is plenty to be covered and it gets crazy when there’s no pandemic stopping you. You want to do so much that you forget to focus on what’s most important. The covid-19 situation might not let you have the bash you initially had wished for , but it’s definitely a boon in terms of making little moments exemplary and beautiful. Make the best use of the time you spent recklessly traveling for chores and make your wedding ceremony a hit. After all what’s simple and easy on your mind stays always in your heart! Go and read the covid guidelines for wedding.
