Covid took my dream wedding away.

I’m so sorry!! Are all your vendors being pretty accommodating for rescheduling?

I’m with you 💔 I finally resigned myself to understanding that my April 18 wedding would now be October 17. It was difficult, but ultimately the right decision. We bought so much stuff with our date on it so we still planned on meeting with our officiant, but I’m right back to disappointment. The governor of our state just put out a stay at home order until early June, which means we won’t even be able to get our license signed. Hang in there and just know you’re not alone. Try to look at the good-your relationship will be stronger, it’s definitely something you will never forget, and you’re ensuring the safety of you and your loved ones.

Yes, all of them have been so great to work with and willing to do whatever I need. Which is a huge help! I just hope they are all available for the next date we pick :/

Ugh I'm so sorry to hear that! My state put us on home quarantine a few weeks ago and we cant even get a marriage license due to all the courthouses being shut down. At least you can still be married on your date!!

I’m with you girl! We can’t even postpone yet since our venue is closed still and it’s stressing me out we are supposed to get married mid May but I don’t even think it’ll happen anymore. Not even excited we can’t even get a marriage license to atleast just get married us two on our day. I’ve been crying for the past few days and just sleeping so much. We’re in this together

Yes us as well, we are unable to get a marriage license with everything being shut down!

My fiance tries to help me not be sad, but all I want to do is just cry and be depressed.

View Quoted Comment I wish we could. We have the license, but it’s for a different state.

Our original date was April 25th and we missed out on getting a marriage license before everything shut down. Our new date is September 13th. I just saw on our county clerks website that they are planning to start issuing marriage licenses online so that gives me some hope that we can still be married on our original date via Zoom with our officiant and family. But I cried for DAYS after we made the decision to postpone. Thankfully our planner was already contacting our vendors about postponing before we said anything. But also, as long as I get to marry my love, it really doesn’t matter when or where. Virtual hugs for all my fellow brides on here!

View Quoted Comment It’s been so depressing my fiancé and I were talking and saying we don’t even understand why you even need to go in person for a marriage license it could totally be done online :/ me too girl we’re in this together! It helps to talk to other brides! We’re you able to postpone your wedding with your venue yet?

I just saw on our county clerks website that they will be launching an online process for marriage licenses. But it said more info to come later this week so I'm hoping we can do that and have a Zoom wedding on our original date.

View Quoted Comment Omg that’s amazing 😭 we’re hoping that in April they will have updates on what we can do but the wait is literally killing me when the days go by SOO slow!

It is okay to grieve this loss. It is okay to be upset, even angry that things aren't going as planned. Yes, be grateful for good health and know that your day will come! But know it is okay to mourn too. Best wishes to you and you family. You will get through this! Breathe ❤

You’re not alone. Many of us are in the same situation. I wish you peace as we make our way through this. (On thing that helps me is knowing we’ll have stories to tell for generations to come. Our ideas and resilience will help inspire those that will face similar situations in the future.)

Same boat, our wedding is also 25 days away or rather it should be but it isn't now. I'm angry and frustrated mostly sad.


Everything we planned and dreamed and gone swept away in an instant.

I have so much to vent about but hold back because there are bigger issues in the world. I feel guilty and selfish for feeling so much grief.

We lost so much this year but grateful to have each other and the opportunity to elope. We just thought that after 17 years of friendship and 5 years of dating, that it would be OUR time.
