Thanks Amber! We decided to postpone to July 16, 2021. Unfortunately, it will cost us a bit more, but I suppose it's worth it for peace of mind, and date/vendor availability. Thankfully everyone we already hired was available for the new date. As sad as I am, I know that we will just have to get creative and find other causes for celebration along the way as we wait. There For now, we haven't cancelled our hotel for our almost date - if things open up a bit, we may still go and enjoy a nice weekend together. If not, we'll find a way to celebrate at home! Hope you can do the same!

I feel for you Stacey. I hope it all works out and if you have to postpone, you are able to have all your original vendors there for you. Good luck, my fingers are crossed for you

Also, Thank you for going to work everyday for us

We postponed last week and were lucky that all our vendors were available. Our original date was July 10, 2020 and now its July 9th 2021. Its a difficult time for everyone. Good luck!

Hi Katherine,

This is such a difficult time for everyone. It was a hard decision but we decided to postpone from July 10, 2020 to July 9th 2021. We have family flying in and at this rate, that wouldn't even be an option for them with all that is going on. We tried the waiting game as long as we could and just last week made the decision to let our guest know about the change of plans. Our wedding is around 120 and we wanted our guest to fell comfortable and excited to celebrate with us rather then worrying about Covid-19. We were aware that dates for 2021 were booking fast and didn't want to miss an opportunity to reschedule our date. We were fortunate that all our vendors were available for our new date with no extra charge. I hope everything will work out for you and all the couples in this challenging situation.

View quoted message I work in healthcare in a region which has been hit pretty hard by COVID-19. While our guest count is about 65, based on what I'm seeing at work, I'm not very optimistic that gatherings of that size will be permitted. We need to be 100% certain by June which is when our flowers have to be ordered, and it's so tough to wait knowing that next years dates will disappear (or our vendors will be unavailable) if we wait too long to call it. Unfortunately, we are only being offered off season postponement dates, otherwise we will have to pay 2021 pricing. I'm willing to wait longer and to pay a bit more for peace of mind, but that that much. It's just frustrating. We will likely make a decision in the next few weeks.

What have you guys decided? Our date is July 11 and we're on the fence about postponing. I would love to hear about your plans!

Hi everyone, just wanted to check in and see how you are all coping with the pandemic. How many of you have decided to postpone?

Sorry; yes a rough guest list first to see how many people you need to seat. But then go ahead with venues. Lol

Start with venues. Venues will determine the look you want, what you need to provide in terms of decor, what your food will be, who you should book with for everything else, etc. Venue shopping should be first and foremost.

I’m getting married on the same day as you! Lol

You should make a rough guest list and then contact venues, then book an officiant, then decor, outfits, rings, flowers, hotel, honeymoon!
