Hi everyone, just wanted to post here my thoughts and my deceptions. Even though people around are telling us, it's ok it will happen later, don't worry everything will be fine, you guys have each other already...so on and so forth. I don't think these people understand what this situation involves. Let me explain: I'm 46 and this is my first marriage. I've always wanted to get married and I was so excited last year when he proposed, finally my dream will come true! And then starts the planning, shopping, spending, deposit here deposit there, buying my kids their plane tickets and counting the days. Christmas passes and then BOOM the 100 days countdown is there, right there, the day is very close now. I'm very excited, I've received my wedding Favors, my wedding guess book all with the date of our wedding May 23, 2020 on it. I'm on cloud number 9 right now, there is less than 90 days left, I got my wedding license OMG, we are getting there!! March 12th the news felt like a bomb on me! Everybody stay at home from now on until further notice! At first I didn't think that our wedding would be impacted, cause it was still in two months, by then things should be settle...that's what I thought. But now I'm not so sure anymore and I feel like my world has crashed down. I had to cancel my fitting and postponed to the end of April, if the store are open by then. I was looking forward for my hair and makeup trial on April 11 but I had to cancel yesterday, social distancing oblige and everything is closed. Even though I still think there is a chance that my date, May 23 will be ok, I will not have a hair and makeup trial. So let's say it happens, I do not know if I will look the way I wanted to look. I'm trying to stay positive for sure but from one day to the other I don't know anymore. Here I was excited, for every single thing I have planned for that day and the next minute I have to think that it might not happen. I am devastated! I know for some of you might say; Ah come on! it's ok, everything will be fine, you'll have your day, maybe not in May but you'll have it! Like my title says, I know there are worse situations, people are dying everywhere in the world right now but I think I have the right to be disappointed that my special day will not happened after all the hard work we've put in it.
I feel for those who had to cancelled their weddings, my heart goes out to all of you.
l Just wanted to write down how I felt and if anyone feels like me please let me know.
