I have an idea and looking for some insight. So we got engaged at sunset on the beach in Punta Cana last year on 5.22.19. Our wedding was scheduled and booked for this August 22, 2020. Due to everything going on in this world we have made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding to the same weekend next year August 21, 2021. She would already have to cancel her bridal shower and bachelorette party, and I want her to have those experiences so postponing is hopefully going to be the right decision. After talking with our wedding coordinator they will still have our wedding this year, but there is a possibility masks will need to be worn, there can be no passed hors d’oeuvres, taped off lines for the bar, no table settings, 4 people to a 10 person table etc. With all the unknown's and heavy hearts we are going to move it.
The past year hasn't been the easiest for her, and was filled with drama (not from me or us as a couple). She learned the true colors of some of her friends, who are no longer friends and would have been part of her bridal party if we had got married a year or two ago. I'm looking at it as a blessing in disguise. Very unfortunate and not something she should have to deal with when it should be the happiest time of her life and planning our wedding. So aside from the drama, and now being devastated about postponing the wedding I had an idea to try and brighten her spirits. I wanted to re-propose to her on the same date this year, but unfortunately this can't be done on an island beach, nor will I have a new ring to give her. I was looking for ideas to do a re-proposal and set it as a reset for the next year leading up to the postponed wedding. The drama causing ex-friends will not be part of it, and it should definitely be less stressful due to everything is already booked and planned - just have to wait till we can tie the knot. Any ideas on re-proposing during quarantine and what to re-propose with? I'm not trying to take away the original, just trying to do something special to set the tone for the next year we have to wait - trying to bring some joy in this time that is not very joyful.
