I am already married but I just wanted to say if I were in this position, I wouldn't be canceling anything just yet. I'd wait and see how things go from here. Based on what they've said and what I've read, at worst, it's assumed this will last through possibly July or August. With a September wedding you should be fine to have your day according to plan! Obviously take precautions with the rest of your planning, and some things may have to be done a little different for the next few months. but you should be just fine!

I agree. I don't just think containing this virus and stopping the spread or even finding a cure in time that's the only problem here. I worry for the aftermath. When the shock has finally worn off. This is a trauma we are facing. By the time it's over people will be mourning losses, out of work, and trying to overcome the fear of leaving the house and being around others. That's a timeline no one can predict. I pray for the best everyday and I hope we can all heal from this when the dust finally settles.
I think you're fine! Most brides are postponing to late summer, so if they're doing that, you're fine. My June 20th wedding will most likely be postponed to August 7th
ABSOLUTELY !!! praying for everyone...This is far beyond anyone ever expected to happen in the United States!!!

I haven't really thought about it lately , I've been seeing good positive & heartfelt posting about the coronavirus & how people are recovering from it . So I'm having mixed feelings about whether am I still planning a wedding or not . My grandma is in her 80s & I really want her to attend but also not putting her at risk.
My condolences for the families who lost some someone with the virius 🙏
Mines in October, but I don’t plan on cancelling, and my vendors haven’t advised me to either. This entire madness will be done by then in all honesty. So, I see now reason to cancel anything.
Keep waiting it out! I am also MOH for my sister's planned wedding in September. There is so much time for things to get better.
Plus, if you cancel now, there's a whole lotta money down the drain. If this is still a significant issue in September, I'd imagine your vendors will reschedule... If it's partially on them because of closures and limitations, you keep that money. But if you cancel it's on you. Better to wait and potentially need to postpone, then to cancel and kick yourself for letting go of all your vendors and perfect timeslot! Have faith! We will get through this.
