Covid-19 Couples

I think once I was engaged till the time I actually booked anything was about 6 years. Honestly I love pinterest. I seriously just had every detail worked out pretty much before. Everything for decor any way. I kept screenshots of everything I loved and deleted one if I found something I liked more. It was nice to have the time to really focus on what was important and how we wanted our day to go.

I knew I had a big family but it didn't really realize how many people I had until we starting making our guest list 🤣🤣 Thank you and I hope yours is everything you imagined!

View quoted message Haha it’s crazy. Like where did all of these people come from?! 🤣 I hope yours will go off without a hitch as well

I totally understand that! Even though we are planning for August 2021 all of my fiances family is in England and really hope there is no travel restrictions then! It would be devastating to not have any of his family there! Before getting engaged my wedding vision was super small and intimate...now that I am actually engaged our draft list is 170 people! I have my fingers and toes crosss for you that you get to have the wedding of your dreams in September!

My Best friend was supposed to get married Saturday march 21st and we got contacted on the monday before...4 days....and was told it needed to be cancelled it absolutely destroyed her! She then postponed it to May 2nd, then got notice everything before May 31st needs to be cancelled and has now postponed it AGAIN to June 20th which will probably need to be cancelled again I really feel for everything whos wedding dreams have been ruined or put on hold for this horrible virus

So I had to postpone my May 23 wedding to September 6, 2020. I’m in Ontario so I’m hoping that by late summer the restrictions will have backed off enough to have my 160-180 guest wedding. We never anticipated to have this many guests originally and each person means something in their own way so we can’t imagine having to cut people out! Keeping my fingers crossed. Luckily all my vendors but decor were available on the new date, and we were able to grab the in house decor that my fiancé wanted originally!

Oh man thats so hard!! hopefully in another month this will all be done and over with. its so sad. so far we havent had to cancel or postpone anything. but i know march april and may girls have had to postpone i feel so bad for them. all that planning... plus i know some girls had a hard time finding dates that all their vendors were available since new engagements have booked for next summer. i have some people waiting about a year just to find a new date.

View quoted message That is a tough one! Personally I would wait and see how the next few months go and how the COVID world is going during the summer and into the Fall then make your final decision either way you will have a beautiful and perfect day that you have dreamed of

Not knowing is the hardest part of all this. Our wedding isn't until December so I probably shouldn't be freaking out as much as I am but it's hard!

We have already booked all of our vendors and put down deposits. I feel extremely bad for anyone's wedding who has actually been cancelled - I just can't imagine what they are feeling and I hope everything is fine in the next few months. Our engagement photos are supposed to be next weekend (this will need to be postponed) and our save the dates are supposed to go out the first week of May but now I'm not sure if its worth sending them out at this point.

My spouse and I are just thinking positively and now we are focusing on the smaller details .. looking at decor, picking music, planning the ceremony/vows ..

Fingers crossed that everything is in good shape by the summer time

View quoted message Thats good to have a plan! We are trying to plan ours for August 2021 and cant book anything because of everything happening this year and they arent taking any new bookings, which will probably mean that ours wont be available and have to be post postponed until 2022.

The uncertainty sucks. I was talking to a coworker who can't go shopping for her dress or get a hold of venues because they're swamped with calls for Covid Couples who need to postpone.


Our wedding is planned for October. We decided a few weeks ago that I'm not allowed to worry until July. I've thought of a backup plan, but I'm reluctant to spend any money or order anything that might need changed later on. We're hopeful that we can still get married on our date even if it's more of an elopement with our reception later on.
