o Many brides are turning to TikTok for inspiration and here are some of the wedding trends that will be big in 2022.
§ Groomsmen first look: the first look is typically when a couple sees each other for the first time on their wedding day but some brides are choosing to prank their husbands-to-be with the groomsmen dressed in a wedding gown.
§ “Flower Man”: A modern spin on a flower girl, this is a man walking down the aisle tossing petals. The moment gets a lot of laughs from guests and gives the bride another way to include their best guy friend in the ceremony.
§ No more garter tosses: This wedding tradition can be awkward and embarrassing and experts say most couples hate it, so many of them are ditching it.
