Hello! We’re getting married in January 2021 (hopefully!) ... due to COVID-19, I’m not sure if we should keep planning and booking vendors or if we should wait a bit to see if we will even be able to have the wedding.

Hello! We’re getting married in January 2021 (hopefully!) ... due to COVID-19, I’m not sure if we should keep planning and booking vendors or if we should wait a bit to see if we will even be able to have the wedding. We’ve already booked our venue (including catering), photographer, videographer, DJ & I already have my dress and a lot of decor. The next step was to book the florist & go bridesmaid dress shopping but that all got put on hold when places started shutting down due to COVID-19 in March. As things are reopening now, I want to pick up where we left off but I’m not sure if there’s any point... I’m afraid we will have to postpone our January wedding if the restrictions aren’t lifted or if there’s a 2nd wave. Also, when should I contact my current vendors to see what my options are? I know right now they are probably swamped dealing with weddings that are closer..
Thanks so much in advance 💕

    My wedding was to be this July and I was fairly optimistic it would happen - so I waited it out until finally pulling the trigger in late May to postpone.


    The problem with waiting is if you want a particular date or time of year (we want a summer wedding) a lot of the days were gone by the time I postponed and we had to take early September.
    I’d be proactive and speak to your venue about what other dates are available next year and see where your comfort level is.
    We had invited 325 people and I just know people would’ve been such a different wedding to come to if the wait staff were wearing masks....it just wouldn’t have felt right.
    Maybe even check in with some of your guests and see how they’re feeling about it! That way you can gage if people are still worried, or if they’re feeling ok about it.
    The short of it is, it’s totally up to you but doesn’t hurt to be proactive and see what your options are.
