Recently, Pinterest published this blog “Wedding season is back and Pinterest is inspiring a new look to walking down the aisle”.  Let’s hit the highlights.  We all know that people on Pinterest “Pinners” look to Pinterest for life’s biggest moments.  They want to see inspiration to help them plan for the future. 

Pinterest has visual discovery capability which helps because we all know that you can’t always describe what you’re looking for in words.  it often leads to things you didn’t even think about.   Now 2022 Wedding Season is fast approaching.  So it goes without saying that Pinners have already been searching for all things wedding related from wedding planning advice, to wedding themes, to wedding flowers and (of course) wedding poses.

There’s already been a lot of talk about how BIG this year’s wedding season is going to be.  It’s predicted to be THE BUSIEST on record.  As you know with all of the cancellations in 2021, couples are making up for missing a cancelled wedding or having big bashes to make up for the tiny small weddings they didn’t really want.   I’ve been a photographer since 2009 and this year is like no other year I’ve ever seen.  

Pinterest is obviously one of the first stops a couple who gets engaged goes to.  In service to all those couples, Pinterest gathered all of the TOP TRENDS to help Pinners get ready for this wedding season.

Whether you’re searching for what to wear as a wedding guest, to celebrating cultural traditions or to plan an entire color scheme for your wedding, Pinterest has is the past taken care of people and this year is no different. 

Gen Z is approaching weddings with a traditional flare and also non-traditional.  Here are some stats Pinterest shared.
