Still plan for Summer Wedding 2021?

Times are unpredictable to say what will happen for the wedding to take place downsizing the guest list when the time comes. Postponing will not feel the same as the season may not be all there for you as wanted for the special moment. Make the best of what will come and continue with family and close friends. It will be as close as elopement celebration with a playlist made up for the party after the ceremony.

We postponed to September 2021 and we’re waiting to see if we will go ahead.


The only way we will do the whole wedding is without restrictions, ie dancing will need to be allowed etc. If this doesn’t happen we’re cancelling and just doing something with immediate family. I don’t want to spend more money if I don’t have to at this point so just waiting!

We're waiting till after i graduate this april and are financially stable so we're looking at june 2022 which gives us a TON of time. we also made covid guest lists just in case there are still restrictions (hopefully not!!!).


but it's also not a big deal even with restrictions because we don't have a lot of friends haha, most of the 'exceptions' are family friends that have seen us grow up.

Our date is June 5 2021, it’s a roller coaster of emotions if we continue. I lost that spark I had for planning prior to COVID and have a hard about committing to vendors other than those I’ve already booked.
Our venue has even held on asking for our next large deposit as it was suppose to be 6 months prior and we will be their second wedding of the season ( last year they didn’t install their tent)
Definitely feel defeated! We are thinking of trying to post pone or walking away and doing a small backyard thing with just bridal party and family. Good luck in planning! Here if you ever need to chat!

We are July 24th and we are going ahead no matter what. We have been together 9 years, are in our early thirties and want to start trying for kids right after the wedding. So for us even if there are restrictions we will just make due. Hoping last year restrictions come back (or even better), but last summer in alberta you could have 100 people for an outdoor ceremony, 100 for an outdoor reception or 50 for an indoor reception. Our guest list is 80 - so with that we wouldn’t have to compromise. But if it goes down to 50 we’d have to make some cuts.

We have our wedding at the end of May and I'm expecting there to be restrictions still. We are waiting until next month to decide what we change but we are going ahead regardless. I'm hoping we can have 25 people at an outdoor wedding so that our backup plan works out. Even if we are allowed over 50 I still wouldn't be comfortable around that many people if they aren't able to be vaccinated yet (which I would be surprised if they can). But I'm also not wanting to wait so a small wedding with social distancing will be nice

We already rescheduled once from last August to August 14 of this year. We are going ahead no matter what. I can't wait to marry my fiance any longer, we've been together 12 years and have two kids. I have faith that things will be somewhat better by then. It's 8 months away still which is a long time for lots of change. Especially considering how far we've come to having a vaccine being rolled out etc. I'm trying to be as positive as possible. Hopefully in a few months we start knowing more of how things might look.

My fiance and I are still getting married August 7th. We really don't want to postpone for a second time. I think by end of spring, things will look a lot better then right now. We will probably have to downsize our guest list cause we're sitting at 77 people at the moment and I'm crossing my fingers that gathering size will increase to at least 50 by the summer time

We're in September and we don't expect to have a "normal" wedding. Just look at how Ontario is rolling out vaccines

Our worst case scenario is just immediate family and wedding party in a spaced out outdoor ceremony. We'll be thankful if we can have any type of reception without the feeling that we're putting ourselves and guests in any kind of harm's way looming over us.

We're still hoping to have our reception in October, so I'm really hoping we can be a lot more normal by then.


For us in 2020 we picked a date when we would make the decision to cancel or continue with planning and I plan to do the same this year. I feel like our celebration will really hinge on how the vaccine could effect travel. If the Canadian/New Brunswick government allows vaccinated people to enter the country more easily (maybe with a smaller quarantine) then it will be so much easier for my husband's parents to come. If they can't come I don't think I want to bother honestly. I would decide on a date when you will change your plans, whether that means a smaller wedding or pushing to a later date. So much can change between now and spring that it is truly too early to make a decision.
