........ until covid. Just like everywhere else around the nation we have no idea what July will bring. Tomorrow our governor will release details of our phases, and I should just wait until that press conference before I start freaking out, but if we follow suit of other states that have rolled out their phases.... it’s seems HIGHLY unlikely we will be at the phase where 150 people can be together by July.
My fiancé and I have had this master plan worked out for so long and wanted to start building our family right after the wedding. I personally don’t have an issue with doing things that aren’t “traditional” so I’m okay with starting the family now and postponing the wedding until next year. Fiancé however would rather get married at the courthouse this year, have the baby like we planned, and still do our reception next year.
If we’re going to get married this year just the two of us I would rather just not even do the reception. Am I being selfish or stubborn about this? It’s just weird to me to put on my wedding dress and be celebrated a whole year after we’ve already been married.
So the final option is, put off the entire wedding and the baby making by a year..... and I hate that idea too.
I’m not sure what I’m asking here. Maybe I need reassurance that if we go with my fiancé’s ideas that our reception will still feel meaningful a year later.
Or maybe I need somebody to tell me that having kids later in life isn’t so horrible (I’m 31 this year and fiancé is 35).
Lastly, I just want to throw virtual hugs to all the brides to be on here. Whether you’re stressing the heck out like me or if you’ve got it all figured out... I hope and pray that everyone’s day still turns out as amazing as you dreamed!
