Hi everyone! Like every other spring bride, I am freaking out about this coronavirus ruining my wedding plans. Originally we were supposed to have a destination wedding in Jamaica at the end of March. However, travel advisories state that we shouldn’t leave the country. Also, half of the groom’s family can’t go anymore because the flights were cancelled and they have to now reschedule for a later date.
Now we are planning on moving to July if possible! From what I hear in this forum and others, resorts are fairly accommodating to moving things around because of this virus. So I will contact them first thing tomorrow!
On the other hand, I feel absolutely heart broken. We planned for that special day over a year ago and we were so excited that it was coming up. Technically, we are already married because that was a regulation for our Jamaica wedding and so, that Jamaica wedding would have been a symbolic ceremony.
A part of me just wants to ‘elope’ and take a road trip to Banff so we can say our vows, see each other in our wedding attire and take pictures in the scenic mountains on the wedding day that we chose. Then we would do it all over again with our family in Jamaica in July with a symbolic ceremony and reception.
Usually, doing it this way isn’t ideal but I don’t know any other way to satisfy my heart about this in this extraordinary circumstance. Thoughts?
