The time has come: you are getting married. Illusion, nerves and endless emotions go hand in hand during the months prior to the link. Once you have sent the invitations, that you are clear about the location where the ceremony and the invitation will take place and that you have chosen the ideal destination for the honeymoon, it is time to think about the pre-wedding and the post-wedding.
Yes, both events are an “excuse” to party on small committee (usually with your closest friends and family) that you have left singleness behind. What’s more, many bride and groom take advantage of the occasion to carry out a somewhat more relaxed photo session, since the day of the wedding can be a real madness. Next, the 2022 trends in pre-wedding and post-wedding (adapted to different budgets) that will ensure that your guests never forget your wedding.
2022 trends in pre-wedding
One session beauty with friends
It’s a classic: a couple of days before the wedding, the bride goes to a beauty salon to get the treatments she deems appropriate, both on the face, hair and body. Not forgetting, of course, the manicure and pedicure. A plan pre-wedding consists of sharing this beauty moment with your friends
You can go to a specialized salon with your team and enjoy intensive pampering and care. In addition to having a great time, you will take advantage of the moment to be radiant for the day of the wedding (and they too, of course). If your pocket allows it, you can book the center for the whole morning (or afternoon) and make this moment a unique moment.
A couple of days before, organize a special dinner
Another one of the plans cool of the moment is to plan a dinner a couple of days before. For example, if you get married on a Saturday, you can organize it for the previous Thursday. Of course, it is not enough to go to the restaurant on the corner to eat any dish (which if you wish, we think it’s great), The time has come to make a difference and opt for an original proposal.
Why don’t you go to an Ethiopian for dinner? The food is amazing and you eat it with your hands so it can be very entertaining. You can also go to a trattoria Italian (something more classic) or visit an Asian restaurant that has karaoke to extend the night until dawn.
If you can afford it, a rural weekend with friends
One of the most expensive alternatives, but one that we like the most, is to reserve an entire rural house to spend the weekend before the wedding. Get all your friends together, get in a car, go to the countryside and let the party begin. You can prepare board games that make you laugh and innovate with cocktails that you have never tried. Fun is assured.
2022 post-wedding trends
A barbecue on the same farm the next day
One of the upward plans since 2021, and which will continue this year, consists of celebrate a barbecue in the same estate as the wedding (where the bride and groom sleep) the next day. If you have a high budget, it is great that the guests you want also sleep in the same house.
Thus, it will be waking up and tasting a delicious barbecue. Why don’t you put a beer or vermouth shooter? Instagram will be happy to see the stories that all your friends will publish.
And why one pool party in summer
Weddings that take place in hot weather will be able to celebrate a pool party the day after the wedding. Fill the pool with fun items like fruit or animal floats and pour lots of champagne. If you want, you can design the same swimsuits for your bridesmaids and go all together.
A themed photo shoot
Finally, we talk about the mythical photo sessions. As we have already mentioned, these can take place during the pre-wedding or the post-wedding, depending on the criteria of the bride and groom. Yes indeed, what is fashionable now is to put aside the “classic” sessions and bet on some thematic photographs. Have you been united by being Harry Potter fans or are you in love with the world of camping? Well, it’s time to translate it into images. The result will speak of you and will not be the typical “boring” and impersonal photos.
