Managing director of Chelsea Gardens, an events company based in the Highlands with a team of editorially trained stylists and creatives, Georgia said the pandemic gave couples the chance to be more creative in their wedding planning.

"I'm really excited to do a Covid wedding. I prefer to do something unique and intimate," she said.

But her many ideas may have to wait, as her bridal clients have postponed their weddings.

Georgia was recently planning a wedding that included a virtual experience for guests who were unable to attend.

Moving forward, she said this was an option couples might explore if restrictions did not ease.

However, she believes Covid will not be gone any time soon and couples will continue to postpone their big day in the hopes of being able to have family and friends attend from interstate or overseas.

"It's disappointing for the Highlands because it does have such a knock on affect for all of us," Georgia said.

"The venues I've spoken to, there are a few that have gone ahead but mostly people just want to wait.

"At some stage, if people want to get married, they'll have to be creative and come up with different ways to do it."

And when people decide they would like to go ahead with their weddings, Georgia said one of the big differences would be in couples' budgets.

"You can still create beautiful, simple things and you don't need a huge budget to do that."
