How to Prepare for Your Wedding Without Leaving Your Home


The COVID-19 pandemic has crippled many industries around the globe. From the aviation industry to even the wedding industry, almost every industry has been affected by it. And if you and your partner are trying to tie the knot anytime soon, you could expect some speed bumps on the road to forever. However, this does not mean you have to cancel the wedding. You can always adapt to the situation and move forward but in a different perspective.

There’s no doubt that planning a wedding has become more difficult and stressful with the pandemic still affecting the country. But thank goodness, couples can still complete many wedding prep tasks without having to leave their homes!


Here are 5 wedding planning tasks you can cross off your list from the comfort of your home:

1. Put together your wedding website or Facebook Group

Keep your guests up-to-date on all the developments and details of your wedding day. You don’t have to be a web geek to put up your own wedding website. User-friendly sites like Wix, Squarespace, and WordPress offer free templates that would complement your wedding’s theme. And if you don’t feel like launching a website, creating a private Facebook Group is your go-to alternative.

2. Start registering for gifts or experiences

Save your guests from the chore of going out to shop for gifts. While at home, take advantage of a wide array of online registry options. From honeymoon registries to online shopping sites, cross off your list while relaxing on the couch shopping entirely online.

3. Rent/order suits online

No need to visit the store to purchase or rent good tailor made suits. Choose from a variety of on-trend suit and tuxedo styles, along with hundreds of colourful accessories to match your wedding colour scheme from the comfort of your home. Find a website that offers online measurements to ensure that you get the perfect fit. However, if you really need to have tailor made suits, you can always find a shop that offers its serves 100% online so you don’t have to leave your home to have yours done!



4. Donate instead of spending on favours

Your guests would really care less if they don’t receive wedding favours. So instead of consuming time putting together favours, why not donate the money to your favourite charity instead? Then, put up a pretty sign at the reception informing your guests that they are a part of it. Your guests will surely love the idea! Helping organisations and people in need is a big thing among millennials so you can be sure that your friends and family will love the idea.

5. Do a virtual tour of the venue

With COVID-19 restrictions still implemented in many parts of the world, visiting the venue personally may be quite challenging. There are many venue places that offer virtual tour of their businesses. You can take advantage of that so you don’t have to worry about leaving your home. Plus, it is also practical and more efficient because you will have not to drive from home all the way to the place only to find out that you don’t like the place. And if you really want to see the venue in person, book a personal tour after seein the venue via online tour.

Preparing for your wedding during this time can be extra challenging and stressful. But don’t be demotivated but find ways to cope up with the situation. Everything will be better in time! Just go with the flow, adapt, and learn how you can address the problems and you and your partner will surely have a memorable, meaningful, and lovely wedding!
