We made the call to postpone

I want nothing more than to just postpone my November 2020 wedding so I don't have to think about all this anymore but I think we're going to wait until closer to. I don't want to have to send out invitations and everything if it's just not going to happen anyways.

We're wedding date buddies! We were also August 29, 2020 and made the decision to postpone to next year (August 28, 2021). It was such a tough decision (with a lot of tears), but the relief I felt immediately after we made our decision was huge. The stress was just becoming too much. While it definitely won't be what we planned, we are gonna do a small ceremony on our actual date this year. I've also contacted all our guests and everyone totally understood and said they will be even more ready to party next year to make up for it! I'm sure yours will be even better now that you can add some things you wouldn't have been able to for this year!

Aaww girl I'm so so sorry. Unfortunately this was the hand that a lot of brides/grooms were dealt this year and it's so unfortunate.

With that being said, I'm sure you feel a bit of relief. When we made the decision in the beginning of May, I was sad but I had come to terms with it. It sucks thinking that next weekend my fiancé was supposed to be having his bachelor party, I was going to be having mine and the bridal party... but we can wait another year It's unfortunately but you will feel a lot better once you've gotten over the idea of "well I had to postpone/ I would've been doing XYZ on such and such a date"

Good luck

Omggg i cant even imagine. its such a stressful time for all brides!!!

Thinking of you! So sorry to hear you had to postpone but happy to hear you were able to postpone to the same date next year! So glad to hear too that your venue and vendors made the transition smooth with no additional costs to you! My husband and I did the same, we were to get married May 23rd and were unable to get a license, last minute we were able to find a place still issuing them and got officially married April 25th and have decided to move our celebration to April 25, 2021. Our venue and vendors too were amazing and moved our date for us without hesitation and at no additional costs which was a huge relief!! I definitely thought the same way as you! There's a few things we decided to not go forward with in order to save on some costs and now we have the options to look into them for our new date! I wish you the best and hope your special day is amazing!!

Its great to hear you two took the one step to move the date over cancelling. Its a tough year for many couples including yourselves to feel the pressure of not getting the full day celebration.

Yes the savings is the key to have when the extra time is given and your vendors/venue working to change the date waiving the fee.

I'm so sorry you have had to postpone but I'm happy for you that you've found a new date!! Just think, next year will be bigger and better! I'm glad to hear that your vendors and venue are switching to your new date with no extra cost.

My fiance and I have done the same with postponing our August 8 2020 wedding to August 7 2021 in Kelowna. Our vendors and venue have also switched to our new date with no added costs.
