I completely agree! Our minimum guest count has to be 125 but our room can hold up to 250. So when we signed the contract we told them we would be having about 200. They said that’s fine the contract is just written with the minimum amount. I’m going to reach out again towards the middle of June and see what their plan is. I’m also waiting to see what Hogan says in the next couple weeks. If he doesn’t move to phase 2 until July I think I’ll be in a good spot to be able to get it postponed. This whole hung is just super irritating.
My fiance and I are getting married in 3 weeks. We just got our marriage license on Thursday. Although we had to make some changes to our wedding, we knew it was for three best. We're already planning on having a HUGE luau reception and vow renewal on our 1-year anniversary.
I am so anxious about this! We are now looking at rescheduling our October 2020 wedding to some time in 2021, perhaps late Spring or Early Fall, but who knows if this will be better by then. We have quite a few people including elderly folks who are traveling from out of town or internationally and we are in the New York area. We are going to pick a date and hope for the best, I am so tired of the uncertainty

We just postponed our October 2020 wedding and rescheduled for next fall. The venue didn’t have a lot of availability for spring so fall it was. I feel so much better postponing it. Lots of people traveling, especially across country. I couldn’t see people wearing masks, no dance floor and doing social distancing 6 feet apart. Right now, all weddings would have to be outside so this beautiful mansion we booked would go to waste. The vendors were so understanding and didn’t give us a hard time at all. All deposits went to our new date. Seems to be what most people are doing. Now to work on telling everyone. Ugh! Good luck!

I’m getting married in Sacramento, CA on 09/19/20. Luckily Sacramento is moving a lot quicker than anywhere else. Our venue reached out to us this weekend stating they are moving forward with weddings August and on, so we’re lucky! It’s also because our ceremony is outside and reception in a tent. We have to group the seating chart with people from the same homes and the non-family members may have to sit in tables of 4. They are willing to open walls of the tent to allow the spacing. We were expecting about 150 people and we are going to cut down the list as well. Things are moving in different places so fingers crossed for everybody! Hope everyone the best!
We just postponed our wedding from June 6 to September 4 and we are thinking of postponing it or go as plan. It was hard enough for us to pass the June 6 date because we loved it and it was 3 days ago =( so we kinda of just celebrated a little with some off the wedding party.
If our September 4 plan doesn’t go through with all these pandemic stuff going on we may just reduce guest and possibly cancel our reception plans. And do Ceremony at the church . its not the same doing a small one now and then another big one later to me it May not be like the first time just different feelings. I know other people are just doing the small ceremony first.
Getting married 10/31/20. We are allowed 300 guests with social distancing. A band/dj and dancing. Right now 10 max at a table, with 6ft apart. Our wedding was under 100. So all is looking good, 145 days to go and things are getting better in Ohio daily. Best of luck to everyone. Whatever works best for you I hope you all have amazing weddings!
Just made the decision to postpone our Sept 5, 2020 wedding to February 27, 2021. As heartbreaking as it was, I feel at peace knowing that we wouldn't have to make our guests decide between risking their health and attending our wedding. As dramatic as that sounds, we've had folks express it in that way. We are getting married in Maui which will be considered a destination wedding for 90% of our guests who aren't from here. And the state is still trying to determine how to open tourism back up as we are very vulnerable to the "outside". Hotels are still closed and airlines have drastically cut down the number of routes per day. So all in all, I think this was the best decision for us. May you make the best decision for you. Best of luck & lots of love to you all!
I had the same wedding date (9/5/20) Jessica - we are in Maryland and postponed our Baltimore-area wedding to September 18 of next year.
I completely agree - we did not want to make anyone decide between their health and our wedding. We also didn't want to compromise what we wanted our wedding to be.

I'm with you Karlayne - I know that if I tried to plan to have something small mow, and big next year, it won't feel the same next year for me. I'm getting married 8/29 and working with our venue to create a special, smaller scale, day for us & the guests that want to, and can come. We know it won't be everyone & safety is very important. I hope you come up with what works best for you & your future spouse
We are still getting married, but have postponed the celebration for next fall. I love to dance and cannot imagine a wedding where people are social distancing. Not many people had RSVPed so just sent an email to those who have and updated the website. Helps to have an email just for the wedding! Best of luck to everyone and stay safe😷
