Love, marriage, and COVID–19 …

Regardless of whether you have planned every part of your special day, you’re still clutching on to some planning ideas in your Pinterest folder, or you’re in love and thinking of getting hitched… COVID-19 has had an impact on weddings ... 

But don't lose sight of your perfect day yet! Local company,Event Junkies, has found that while alert level and travel restrictions may have an impact, they are confident you can still pull off your dream wedding with research, forward planning, and by asking for help from a professional. 

While we may be able to move around the country freely under alert level one, those wanting to tie the knot with overseas visitors present still have a while to wait until border restrictions lift. The timeline on these restrictions is not yet clear, but there is hope.

Please refer to the official covid19.govt.nz website for more details.

 If you do have a lot of friends or family overseas, there is always the option of having your guests attend your special day via an online events platform that lets your guests interact with each other while witnessing your big day. Event Junkieshas has a platform called Hopin that does just that. Get them all to dress up and send gift packs in advance to create a feeling of attendance. It may be unconventional, but it can be just as fun.

Covid-19 has meant that a lot of people are under financial pressure. If costs and stress are piling up for your the big day, Event Junkies believe it is much more cost effective to find venues with pre-packaged weddings. This will not only save you money, but also the time and stress it would take to run around and plan your special day under the current climate. There are a few quirky options that will make your day stand out. Check out the wedding packages Event Junkies has on their website - www.eventjunkies.co.nz  - or get in touch with Freddie or Annie on 021 046 0626 to discuss your options.
