So my wedding is May 2nd and i'm just so bummed out I feel like this whole Coronavirus outbreak is going to ruin my wedding Smiley sad I have one bachelorette party scheduled for March 21st that might get canceled and another in April that I feel is heading that way. Is anyone else's wedding planning being affected by this virus? I'm a bummed and hoping everything goes smooth but I can't help but freak out a bit.

    I think its naive to assume anything at this point. I understand we must keep hope, but we must also be realistic and prepare for the worst case scenario (postponement.) I am right here with you, except I am having to sort this out sooner.

    Our wedding is planned for June 13, 2020 and while that seems far enough out to not have to postpone - with all the uncertainty and information rapidly changing on a daily basis, I can't help but be overwhelmed with stress and anxiety. I've already had to cancel by bridal shower and am sure my bach is out of the question at this point too.

    Here in CA, we have a "Shelter in Place" ordinance in effect through April 19th with the possibility of that extending to May if our situation here does not improve. Our venue has had to cancel and postpone weddings that were planned through April. My heart ACHES for those couples.

    We are hoping late April will offer more clarity for the future of 2020, however, what everyone needs to understand (myself included) is that even if things "calm down" soon, it doesn't mean people will be out of danger while in close proximity to one another. We never expect to have to make such a heartbreaking decision, however, it is not nearly as heartbreaking as the idea of putting our loved ones at risk.

    Hi all,

    I live in NJ and have reached the conclusion that I have to reschedule my wedding however the venue is giving us a lot of issues. They're trying to force us to reschedule a saturday june evening wedding to a week day. Is anyone facing similar issues?
