With smaller guest lists, cancelled wedding showers and even postponed weddings, Crate & Barrel found that 95% of COVID-era couples say it’s more difficult to complete their registries. Crate & Barrel will change that for 10 lucky couples
CHICAGO, Feb. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — While wedding showers and ceremonies continue to go virtual or to a smaller scale, couples across the country are still registering at Crate & Barrel. However, according to a recent Crate & Barrel survey, four out of five recently engaged or married couples say that the pandemic had a somewhat or significant impact on their wedding plans. The survey also confirmed that 59% of couples have decreased their wedding guest lists, 52% have delayed or postponed their wedding, and 38% have canceled pre-wedding activities. All of this has resulted in significant portions of couples’ registry wish lists remaining unfulfilled but, Crate and Barrel is here to help.

Survey Methodology
The Crate & Barrel Survey was conducted by Wakefield Research (www.wakefieldresearch.com), between February 4th and February 9th, 2021 among 1,000 nationally representative U.S. adults married or engaged in the past 12 months, using an email invitation and an online survey. The data has been weighted to ensure reliable and accurate representation of the U.S. adult population who were married or engaged in the past 12 months.
Results of any sample are subject to sampling variation. The magnitude of the variation is measurable and is affected by the number of interviews and the level of the percentages expressing the results. For the interviews conducted in this particular study, the chances are 95 in 100 that a survey result does not vary, plus or minus, by more than 3.1 percentage points from the result that would be obtained if interviews had been conducted with all persons in the universe represented by the sample.
