Colors? Flowers? Theme? Venue? Etc!


Adam and I are getting married at an old silk mill in a historic neighborhood with a courtyard ceremony and indoor reception. Our colors are dusty blue (bridesmaids), navy (groomsmen) and gold (accent) with bright pops of color for the flowers! We're contemplating the theme of "Let Love Grow" since there will be lots of greenery and blooms. We will also be serving pie instead of cake for our dessert!


Excited to hear what everyone else is planning for their June weddings (:

    Also feeling torn between carrying on or postponing.
    It’s definitely tough to make that call right now.
    We are thinking we will wait out this next month and make the decision at the beginning of May...

    YES EXACTLY! Part of me wants to postpone just for the relief of not being worried, but I’m having such a rough time letting go of our date!
    We are doing a puzzle guest book and it already has our names and date printed on it 😔
    I actually need to put it together to make sure it has all the pieces but I can’t bring myself to do it yet because it just makes me sad that it might not be our date after all....Couples getting married on June 13, 2020 1

    The only dates our venue had for the rest of 2020 were friday nov 13, sat nov 27 and sat dec 26. They are planning on being open on june13 but we just didn't want to take the chance with zero dates left in 2020.

    I’m so sorry to read this 😞
    This whole situation really sucks for everyone, but I feel like it especially sucks for those of planning weddings during this time...
    Will you guys choose a different location to try to have it earlier? Or stick with New Orleans?
    I have been debating about whether we will keep our date with just close family and friends six feet apart and give up our location (we are supposed to be married in a county park currently closed through the month) but it’s so special to me because it’s our local Japanese Garden and my family is Japanese.

    I am a teacher so it’s definitely easier for me to get married during the summer break. A Friday or Sunday would be so difficult...but that’s what I am worried we will have to choose if we want to get married this year.
    And all of our attire was planned around summer outdoor wedding. My dress is lightweight with no sleeves and all the bridesmaids dresses are short because we were planning a a summer afternoon wedding in the middle of California 😔

    We both want to keep it in NOLA, but I am a teacher too (saw you other comment) so summer works best as well. We already had an 18 month engagement because he proposed in December and 6 months was too soon. (I also have a school aged child). So now it’s looking like another year. I don’t like the idea of just living together, but I don’t want to say my vows at the courthouse only to have a ceremony that basically a “production” since the actual license and certificate would have been signed at the courthouse. What’s more, we’ve already had to move in together because our separate leases didn’t line up and my landlord (private owner) wouldn’t work with my fiancé’s timing. So the three of us are in the new place under lockdown and unmarried. I was fine with 6 weeks of that before the wedding, but indefinitely, not so much. Not to mention his sister is due in August, so now we have to wait until she can travel safely, which means we wait until baby can travel safely. No way were having the wedding without her. We already feel like sisters. It’s all a huge mess. But I am thankful that we are all healthy and together. I’ve been doing some research and we may do a little intent to marry affidavit in the meantime. There’re no vows, wedding license or certificate. But we would have hospital rights (especially relevant these days), joint tax filing option and employee family benefits. I think that will help me feel 1) somewhat legally married, but 2) not enough that I feel like it’s just renewing vows when we do get to have the ceremony. I hope that all makes sense. I apologize for the rant sized post, but I kinda had a not too mini meltdown over it a few days ago. I might have lockdown delirium. 😆 I know you ladies understand. But to reiterate, I did feel better after I sent out the official postponement announcement. I felt like I could move forward.

    Well... after much discussion and hesitation and stubbornness (on my end) we have decided to reschedule our wedding to October 2020. We have elderly guests and out of town guests and I can’t put them in a situation that may not be the safest for them and everyone at the wedding. Here in Florida, stuff is shut down until the end of April and the legal system (which I work in) is until the 30th of May. So who knows what’s what at this point.
    One vendor will not refund.... needless to say I will not recommend that vendor to anyone lol

    Now just waiting to see if our venue has availability....

    Hi Toni,


    Looks like most of us were forced to abandon this date. I had to. And like someone else said, although the wedding was set in NOLA, we have a lot of at risk people we can't ask to travel now. That said, our court system isn't even open here in Dallas, so we couldn't even elope if we wanted to. Smiley sad I hope your beautiful day is still on. Smiley smile

    Closing the loop since I commented earlier, in case any of our thinking is helpful for others. We’re officially out for June. Our city hall reached out to reschedule our ceremony, so that’s that.


    We took a look at the availability calendars for the rest of the year, only considerations at this point are that our reception venue is outdoors and we’ve also seen that with so many couples rescheduling (even with the venue extending their wedding season a month) there’s not much availability. We put holds for late September, but we’re not sure that will pan out so we’re also thinking about alternatives to the whole thing.
    Side note to everything that’s going on, my dress got massively delayed due to the atelier cutting back it’s staff. And there’s no estimated arrival. I’ve loved using my dress as a metaphor whenever people ask me anything about our wedding now 😂.
    Good luck everyone, be safe.
