When it comes to weddings, several planners and industry experts expect this year to be the storm after the quiet of 2020.
Weddings that were postponed last year because of restrictions to slow the spread of the coronavirus were rescheduled this year. Couples who opted for “microweddings,” small gatherings with close family and friends, are holding bigger followup ceremonies or receptions this year and next.
The loosening and lifting of restrictions have inspired people to upsize this year and bring back dancing. On Friday, Gov. Jared Polis ended the state’s mask mandate in most public settings, while suggesting that unvaccinated people still wear them.
