Wedding Season Is Booming Across U.S.
Wedding industry experts have been predicting that the latter half of 2021 will be seeing a drastic bounce back thanks to coronavirus vaccine distribution, and vendors throughout the country have found this prediction to be accurate so far.
Katie Zeim, a senior catering sales executive at The Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club told FOX Business that weddings have been picking up in the St. Petersburg, Florida area since November.
"Couples are looking to host their weddings at a location with good weather for an outdoor event or in a state with less restrictions where guests can mingle and dance," Zeim said. "We’re seeing plenty of last-minute 'elopements' of local couples wanting to get married in front of family now and plan something larger in a year, and we’re already also receiving a strong amount of bookings for weddings of 150 guests and above."
