The outbreak of Covid-19 has left so many brides to be – and grooms for that matter – left in the dark over just when their happy day might happen.
With a significant number of planned 2020 weddings having to be postponed due to the Covid19 government regulations on events, it looks like 2021 could be a busy year for nuptials taking place up and down the country.
One thing you have to remember is that the bride and groom, and their families and friends, aren’t the only ones affected by the global pandemic. Yes, the big day has had to be put on hold for the happy couple – and we can’t think of anything more stressful. The whole wedding event economy has taken an incredible hit too, and is working hard to rearrange and re-schedule. Everyone is in this together and the 2021 weddings, when they happen, are going to involve some serious parties.
Venues are moving bookings, at the same time without disrupting the dates of those who already had a 2021 wedding in the calendar. The same goes for wedding suppliers like us here at Sound Kicks, the leading provider of Wedding entertainment in Birmingham, Solihull & Warwickshire wedding DJs and evening reception wedding music. We are here to make the day go smoothly – no matter when it is rearranged for or takes place.
Ideas to pursue..
With an increased number of weddings highly likely in late 2020 and throughout 2021, once the Covid-19 restrictions are lifted and Birmingham wedding venues are permitted to begin hosting ceremonies, wedding breakfasts and evening parties, you will need to start thinking about sorting suppliers and getting your big day back on track – providing you’ve managed to settle on a date.
Here are some things you can be organising now in preparation for your big day next year, once a new date is circled in the diary.
Dresses and Suits
When it is safe to do so again, purchase your dream wedding dress and get the suits booked or bought. They are one of the things you can ensure you’ve got ticked off well in advance with any alternations or changes made closer to the actual wedding date.
The Rings
The two most important things, other than the bride and groom themselves. Purchasing the rings is a special moment and you can start thinking about the style, look and how many diamonds you want before being able to buy them when the jewellery shops are allowed start trading again.
Transport
From a Rolls Royce or old Morris Minor to a VW camper, you can have any form of wedding transport you wish. Even a horse drawn carriage if you want to make a real impression. Most Birmingham wedding cars companies will book up pretty quickly, so once you know a date talk to them and secure your dream ride.
Guest Lists
If you’ve had to change your date from the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, keep your guests in the loop. As soon as you have a confirmed new date for 2021, re-send RSVP cards to let them know when the new big day is going to be.
Evening Wedding Entertainment
Your evening reception is the longest part of your day, and the one a greater number of people attend. You want them to have as memorable a night as you and your new partner. If you want the best Birmingham wedding DJ or are looking for Warwickshire interactive wedding entertainment, dancefloors and lighting, talk to the Sound Kicks team. They can ensure your evening reception is a party to remember from the romantic first dance to a dance floor full of wedding guests.
