Although social distancing restrictions have been lifted for months, data from Google Trends shows Canadians still prefer relaxed, intimate celebrations and prioritise recharging their social batteries over a long night out. There has been a 73 per cent increase in searches for “cancelling plans” in Fall 2022 compared to 2021, and searches for “irish goodbye” are the highest they’ve been in five years.
This holiday season, Canadians are itching to do less (while still having fun), and Saintly wines offer the perfect selection for the many consumers who choose dinner parties over clubs and are looking to simplify their social lives.
While our social habits are shifting, we’re still looking for ways to inject joy into holiday celebrations. Searches for “party games” have already doubled since September and Pinterest “dinner party aesthetic” searches between Fall 2021 and 2022 have tripled. The moral of the story? We want the fun without all of the effort.
For Canadians who are looking to do less this holiday season, Saintly Wine is the answer to uncomplicating holiday celebrations and giving you a fun and easy way to pare it down to just the essentials. Saintly is not the gift you give, it’s the bottle you bring and the secret ingredient to transforming conventional holiday parties into low-key celebrations we can genuinely enjoy.
