Perks of virtual wedding

These are the positive sides of having a virtual wedding:

Less time-consuming

It takes less time to plan a virtual wedding than a traditional wedding. Since everyone will be there virtually, so you won't have a lot of arrangements to make.

Celebrate with the close ones

You can celebrate your most important day with only your close near and dear ones.

Budget-friendly

It saves a lot of money. You don’t need to rent a large venue to accommodate all guests; also food arrangements will be less. So, overall, it will be cost-effective.

How to plan a virtual wedding?

These are the things to keep in mind for the arrangement:

Equipment

Make sure you have all the important equipment for the virtual wedding along with a good network so that your guests won’t have any problems while watching the ceremony.

Lighting and backdrop

Where the ceremony will take place, make sure that area has enough natural light. Choose the right backdrop that will reflect lights. If there isn't much natural light, then arrange for artificial lights, so that it won’t look dark in the camera.

Vendors

These vendors can also help you with your virtual wedding to make it perfect:

Florist: They can adorn the room with flowers and the backdrop where the ceremony will take place.

Photographer and videographer: Though it is a small function, it is special for you, so your entire wedding can be recorded so that your friends can have a look at the photos and videos later.

Angles

If you are having your virtual wedding at home, then choose the angles properly so that guests can see the entire ceremony virtually without any disturbance.

Invest on focal points

Since you are cutting down your budget on guests, venue and catering, you can invest on other things like decoration, flowers, lights, etc.
