U.S. marriages have shown a significant rebound in 2022, reaching nearly 2.1 million, marking a 4% increase from the previous year. This positive trend comes after a challenging period during the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted many marriage plans.
In 2020, the first year of the pandemic, the U.S. witnessed a notable decline in weddings, with only 1.7 million recorded — the lowest number since 1963. The restrictions imposed to curb the spread of COVID-19, such as stay-at-home orders and limits on large gatherings, played a significant role in this decrease.
