How are you ladies handling the pandemic at your weddings? We are offering masks, sanitizers, live streaming/face time for those who don't want to make the trip, distancing the tables, and putting families at same tables so you are only close to people you aren normally in contact with but some guests are still weary.

    Sounds like you have done everything you can to make people feel as safe as possible in the situation we are in. You may have guests decide not to come, but FaceTime/streaming helps with that. The thing with regular masks is they are not actually protecting 100% for the person wearing it, so maybe you could make sure you have a few N-95 masks available for your extra worried guests. More uncomfortable to wear but would protect them the best.

    I think you are taking even precaution that you can! When is your wedding?

    It's in October so we have time, but it is still stressing people out! I'm personally not bothered with the precautions we have in place, but some guests are very anxious about it.

    We are doing the same thing. Offering masks and sanitizer, reminding folks to wash their hands regularly, 6-8 at a table instead of 10, 6 ft apart and same family at tables.

    Thanks Gina and everyone else who has given their love and input. Definitely wasn't something I was planning on when we got engaged, but life can get messy I'm just lucky to have him, my family/friends, and you all ❤️

    Love the ideas and incorporating these for our August wedding. Another thing we just did (redesigning our invitations as I type this as originals have our old date) on the Details card we added the precautions we are taking, such as outdoor space for cocktail hour and weather permitting guests can enjoy outdoors post dinner.

    Katie, that's a great suggestion! I put it on our website since we had already gotten the final draft for our invite and couldn't change it. But I will definitely add the indoor/outdoor details to the page!
