Social media trends can change how people plan and pay for weddings, just like a popular toy can make everyone want to have it too.
Wedding styles are like the latest toys, if you see lots of people wearing fancy dresses or having colorful themes on social media, you might want your wedding to look like that too. It’s like when all your friends start playing with a new game; suddenly you want to play it too!
Wedding costs can go up because everyone wants the latest style. If every toy in the store becomes expensive because it's popular, then buying one might cost more money, and that’s what happens with weddings. A fun party with balloons and confetti might be cheaper than a big, fancy ballroom.
How Social Media Shapes What You Want
- People see what others are doing on apps like Instagram or TikTok.
- They think, “That looks amazing! I want my wedding to look like that too!”
- Then they start spending more money to make it happen, just like buying the most popular toy in class.
So social media is like a big toy store for weddings, and sometimes, everyone wants the same toy, which can cost more money!
Examples
- A couple sees a viral video of an Instagram-themed wedding and decides to spend $2,000 on photo booths.
- A student couple follows a YouTube channel that shows how to make a budget-friendly wedding.
