The Social - Wedding Segment

All of this got my butt in gear to book a 2021 date right away. Once the pandemic hit we just completely stopped talking about the wedding for about 6 weeks. We finally thought if we don't do something soon we won't have a date!

That sounds like a great idea but i dont want to postpone. everything we have has our custom date on it. we have been planning this wedding for a year and a half im so excited for it. we have put so much time and effort and money into it i dont want to lose deposits or have to find vendors and find new dates.

I hope if things don't go the way you planned that you get all your deposits back!

We also decided to get married with our immediate family on our date.. We want to start a family and just felt that there isn't any certainty about when large gatherings will be able to take place. There were so many factors that went into that decision and no two wedding's are the same. Whatever works for you. Being optimistic is great and it is an ever changing situation.

Will you cancel altogether if you are not able to have your wedding? I think that Weddings are a unique situation. Definitely don't fall into the category of Concerts and Sporting events.

Sometimes I just wish they would address these types of events to give some context.

I think I read an article that was similar to this. I mean everyone is different in what they'll choose to do, we have opted not to postpone for many reasons and that will work for us, where as other people will be able to postpone for another year.

I think venues will install hand sanitizing stations - which doesn't bother me, our venue has them already. I think wait staff will need to wear gloves - again doesn't really bother me.

I think once Ontario (and other provinces "open up") the social distancing measures will become more relaxed. Who knows what, how or when - but there's no wrong decision to make here. If you choose to not postpone and wait it out - that's ok, and if you choose to postpone that's ok too!

For me, a Thursday wedding probably wouldn't work ceremony wise - it would be super hard to get time off work to attend the ceremony. Definitely would attend the reception for as long as I could though to support the couple!

You got to know about a great segment and this guy seems to have the back up plan in order if anything happens right now. Its amazing how the points are true and the new norm coming into effect soon may feel the health of others you haven't seen for a long time be awkward. The social did make a good call to put this topic on their show as its important for those couples thinking of postponing their dates.
