The 2017 Pinterest Wedding Report has been released, shedding light on the consumer behaviours of brides- and grooms-to-be
Every year sees an emergence of new wedding trends and Pinterest has released its 2017 Wedding Report to offer insight into how couples are using the platform to plan their big day.
