Dubai: Marriage or mortgage? The new Netflix show that asks couples to choose between having a lavish celebration or buying a home would no doubt have many relating to both sides of the debate.
But away from the reality show, thanks to COVID-19, other dimensions to the options have also come into play. Global travel restrictions, local social distancing protocols and financial uncertainties have put big fat weddings on hold with intimate, even virtual, affairs becoming the norm. Some look at it as a compromise. Others are thankful for the default savings.
Paradigm shift
Either way, the wedding as we knew it has changed. There’s a paradigm shift in the way people are getting married these days. And yes, it goes without saying that an entire industry has adapted itself to the new normal, innovating ways to make the celebrations as special as can be under the circumstances.
