The Power of Pinterest! 2024 Wedding Report
In the vast landscape of social media platforms, Pinterest often stands out as a hidden gem, especially for businesses. While many entrepreneurs focus their attention on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, underestimating the power of Pinterest could mean missing out on significant opportunities for growth and engagement.
As we head into the 2024 wedding season, people are turning to Pinterest to find inspiration, plan and shop for their special day. With over 3 billion wedding-related searches and more than 10 billion wedding ideas saved globally in one year on Pinterest, the 2024 Pinterest Wedding Report is filled with fresh ideas to inspire your brides.
This year, people are skipping the stress of large weddings and planning for easy-going, smaller gatherings to support the ‘quiet life’. They are also nostalgic for the timeless elegance of eras past, with searches related to vintage weddings on the rise. And Gen Z specifically is leading the charge in a rebellion against the neutral beige and white wedding, sparking a renaissance in colourful, vibrant wedding aesthetics.Â
‘Quiet Life’ weddings
Pinners seem to be turning away from over-the-top, expensive weddings and instead putting more emphasis on quality time with loved ones and guest experiences. Trending venues show that they are planning intimate weddings in cosy environments that connect with nature. They are embracing casual wedding dresses, easy hairstyles and simple make-up. This may be due to increasing desires for the slow, easy lifestyle—searches for the ‘quiet life’, a life of fewer stressors and mindful living, have increased 530% globally since last year.

Timeless vintage weddings
We’ve seen trends of nostalgia, such as rising searches for Y2K, 1990s or groovy nuptials (1960s and 1970s weddings) as reported in Pinterest Predicts. Now, Pinners are taking it way back, with searches for vintage weddings on the rise. It seems some couples are drawn to the charm and romance of bygone eras, as well as the classic and refined aesthetic they bring. Some may even choose to use family heirlooms like vintage rings to add sentimental value.
