Getting married is a sacred thing. Nobody dares to ruin it—not bad weather, not your grumbling parent-in-law, not even the burnt canapés.
But quarantine has surely made its own changes to how and where newlyweds have said “I do!” From tying the knot with 1-meter distance without permission to kiss the bride to putting up pics of every single wedding guest who couldn’t attend, these weddings are everything but usual.
Bored Panda has compiled a list of the most creative and quirky quarantine weddings that prove love makes the world go round, however chaotic it may be.

The wedding planning and registry resource The Knot reported that the United States had 450,000 weddings scheduled for March, April, and May of 2020. Kristen Maxwell-Cooper, the editor-in-chief at The Knot, told Al Jazeera that even if only 4 percent of couples decide to cancel their wedding ceremonies rather than postponing them, it will still hit the vendors big time.
Kristen explained: "Many of our small business partners, the wedding professionals that make weddings happen, are feeling a strain on their bottom line as couples look to postpone and reschedule their weddings for later this year or into 2021.”

We were only allowed to have our witnesses at city hall, at a safe distance. We livestreamed it all for our original guests. And yes we did have zoom meeting later in the day, and all our friends sent in videos. It wasn't at all what we planned - but we're over the moon that we got married.
And whenever it's possible - we're gonna have our original planned wedding with everyone there. Even if its in a year (or five).

Had To Cancel The Wedding But Not The Marriage
Covid-19 Wedding Went Exactly As Planned. No Guests, No Touching, But We Broke The 6' Rule
Congrats to all. Trust me, big wedding is not worth it. I'm Asian and was expo to have a big wedding. My mom went a little crazy during the wedding planning so I decided to not even have a wedding. We flew to Hawaii, had a tiny wedding in the beach, spent 2 weeks running around enjoying Hawaii. Saved us a tons of $$$ and headaches. I've seen my cousins and their huge weddings - don't regret not having a wedding 1 bit.
I love our ability to live our best lives regardless of what is thrown at us.
