How to plan safe weddings

So now whether you have postponed your wedding for the time being, or have a wedding coming up in the next few months, one thing is clear. The COVID wave might subside by then, but it aint going anywhere. So what do you do? You plan a safe wedding, keeping precautions and guidelines in mind and practice. And WedMeGood can help you do that- plan a wedding that's safe for your near and dear ones. 

• Vaccinations are the need of the hour for people above 18, and consider going ahead with your wedding once everyone in your immediate circle including yourself have been vaccinated. 
• Avoid stepping outside unless necessary and try and plan your wedding as much as you can from the comfort of your home. If you have to step out, always use a mask, keep it on the entire time you're not at home and practice social distancing and sanitisation.
• Prefer e-vites over physical invites right now, as they are easier to send out, easier to edit in case of date changes and more environment friendly. You could get a gorgeous one designed from one of the many invitation designers we have listed on WMG.
• In an initiative to address the customer needs, WedMeGood has launched a WMG Hygiene program - 'WedSafe', which is a unique way for our vendors to showcase the safety standards and preparedness they have in place for the coming times. Find out more on this WMG Initiative to make weddings safer!
