For instance, Bowling Green State University, a noted public research university in the US, reported in September 2024, that in 2022, a total of 2,322,727 women were married, which is an upswing of 269,921 from 2021, when the number stood at 2,052,806. Consequently, the bridal wear market is experiencing this growth surge because of the swelling wedding numbers.
