Covid-19... Stressy & Depressy

I decided to postpone my wedding that was orginally scheduled for May 16. I just don't want to risk anyone getting sick. Also when I reached out to all my vendors, they said new dates were filling in quickly since many brides were currently switching dates. So I decided to just postpone so that I could get a new date that worked with all my vendors!

I decided to postpone my May 30th wedding to July 18th. Luckily my venue had the date available and my vendors did too, except my photographer. We are going with someone else in the same company though.

I wanted to postpone before sending my invites out so that it wouldn't cause a huge hassle with the RSVP's and so that my guests wouldn't be anxious and worried about attending. I am holding on to hope that this will be over by July. Fingers crossed!

Good luck to you!!

Thanks so much for your feedback Amanda!

We have done the same thing. Our thoughts are to make the FINAL decision & announcement on April 1st.

We did not want to risk loosing any of our vendors.

MAY BRIDES!!! It doesn't hurt to go ahead and ask vendors about plan B dates... it honestly takes away a little bit of the stress of being in the UNKNOWN.

My suggestion is asking your favorite vendor first what available dates they have open, then go from there. Send those dates to the next vendor and so on.... eventually it will be narrowed down.

Our prayers are with everyone whose having to deal with these stressful decisions.

So glad you've got the next steps in place Anna!! I know having any kind of plan is helpful right now!!

With your wedding date right now the edge of the 8 week CDC guidelines and school closings etc., I'm sure it's extra hard to decide - but you definitely aren't alone right now! ❤️ Here are a few posts where you can connect with other 5/16 couples who have been sharing their Covid19 wedding concerns:
