Since March 2020, the majority of the couples either postponed their wedding dates or made some major changes in their wedding plans! As many couples weren’t able to do things as they desired in the year 2020, the experts are indicating that the year 2021 will bring back weddings in late 2021. Not only that, as the next year will be all about back to back celebrations!
