The new year has officially kicked off! As 2022 makes its way into our lives, now\u2019s the time to see where things are headed for weddings in Malaysia this year.<\/p>\n\n

Although the pandemic has sadly not reached its end yet, there is, however, some good news to it \u2013 weddings are seeing new trends as couples get more creative with planning them around the new normal. While many things may have changed along with new SOPs<\/a> and all, it\u2019s not impossible to plan a wedding that\u2019s just as wonderful and memorable now.<\/p>\n\n

If you and your partner are keen on tying the knot this year, read on to see just what the latest trends are for a Malaysian wedding in 2022!<\/p>\n\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

1. Small-scale weddings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n

In light of pandemic regulations and tighter SOPs, it\u2019s no surprise that smaller weddings<\/a> have been getting more popular. Now, couples no longer necessarily want a monumental guest list and the entire extended family in attendance.<\/p>\n\n

Instead, many couples are making the move to host smaller yet more meaningful and intimate ceremonies, such as small garden or outdoor weddings where only important family members or close friends are invited.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

With fewer guests and less headache of planning a grand large-scale wedding, it\u2019s likely that more and more couples will now choose to devote more attention to creating a more special and intimate ceremony centered around themselves and their close friends and family.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

2. Weekday weddings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n

Compared to pre-pandemic times, weekend weddings are harder to achieve now due to lockdowns and new SOPs<\/a>. It\u2019s not just the venue, other elements like photographers and musicians are harder to come by too \u2013 everybody wants to get hold of the weekend slots.<\/p>\n\n

Fortunately, there is a silver lining to this as weekday weddings<\/a> will likely start trending this year as couples become more open to having their wedding on a Monday or Friday. Besides opening up more scheduling options, prices for booking venues and vendors are also typically lower during this time, making weekday weddings ideal for planning a budget wedding.<\/p>\n\n

Besides, since weekdays aren\u2019t as in demand as weekends, it\u2019s easier to secure the vendors and venues you really want with a weekday wedding.<\/p>\n\n

3. Multiple celebrations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n

Before the pandemic hit, large crowds of guests and blowout celebrations were fairly normal occurrences for weddings. But with SOPs and restrictions to venue capacity and social activities, this has led to the rise of having weddings split into multiple celebrations<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

In practice, the spaced-out nature of multiple celebrations means that there will be a smaller number of guests present at each one. Not only does this allow for more flexible planning of each celebration, but it also allows couples to have more opportunities to meet and spend time with one another.<\/p>\n\n

Plus, this way, couples can also invite more guests without having to worry as much about cramming everything and everyone into a single event. For example, a couple can have a formal celebration with family and another intimate one with close friends, which can even be split into multi-day experiences as needed for the best experience.<\/p>\n\n

4. Destination weddings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n

Thanks to increasing vaccination rates and gradual loosening of travel restrictions, the bliss of having a destination wedding<\/a> away from traditional ballrooms and indoor venues is slowly making a return among couples.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

It\u2019s not hard to see why, either! From outdoor and hilltop weddings to coastal celebrations or even getting wed at sea, destination weddings often offer beautiful and picturesque views that make for truly memorable celebrations. Plus, it\u2019s a breath of fresh air and change of scenery that everyone sorely wants after not being able to travel for so long.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

And, as an added bonus, more destination weddings are also a boon for the tourism industry, which is sorely in need of some support. With a destination wedding, it\u2019s a win-win for everybody!<\/p>\n\n

5. Digital wedding e-invitations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

<\/p>\n\n

While traditional cardstock-based wedding invitations do have their sentimental value, digital wedding e-invitations<\/a> are popping up as a new and favourable alternative!<\/p>\n\n

Compared to their physical counterpart, wedding e-invitations offer a myriad of useful features like photo galleries, audio, RSVP functions, and buttons among others that a card won\u2019t have. Besides allowing for an engaging and appealing invitation<\/a> to be made, the digital nature of e-invitations means they are also cheaper and more convenient to create and send out to guests, making it well-suited for use in a budget wedding.<\/p>\n\n

Plus, with the pandemic looming about, handing out physical invitations does pose a risk of transmitting the virus to others. As digitally-delivered invitations don\u2019t have this issue, it\u2019s likely that e-invitations are going to see more use as the safer method for inviting guests.<\/p>\n\n

6. Wider range of colours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n

Weddings have traditionally always emphasized the use of rather neutral colours like white, black, and maybe pink. However, such restrictions of colours likely won\u2019t stay for long as couples start embracing bolder colour palettes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Shades of green, touches of red, hues of blue\u2026 not only do they provide for a new and pleasing theme, but the different colours also let couples have a new way to express and symbolize meaning \u2013 such as joy, happiness, and contentment \u2013 through elements like wedding d\u00e9cor, invitations, and attire.<\/p>\n\n

But this doesn\u2019t mean that neutral palettes are past their prime, though! These colours still make for a timeless aesthetic that won\u2019t go unappreciated. Just that, with other shades of colour making an entrance, it can be a good idea to start expanding your range of colours; perhaps even by using both neutral and bolder colours!<\/p>\n\n

7. Breaking tradition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n

Just like life taking many new turns, couples are no longer letting themselves be bound by tradition as much anymore.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Rather than planning generic cookie-cutter weddings, many couples have now been planning more individualized and personalized ceremonies<\/a> themed around their personal traits and styles. Some examples of doing away with traditions or mixing things up include:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n
