Heartbroken

Well, it's official...our wedding is postponed. I don't even know how to feel right now because I feel everything. Please tell me I'm not being ridiculous.

    No your not. It hurts and is hard and takes a bit to get over even when you see people that bring it up as in asking you were suppose to get married but then you start all over and try to see what will work and when

    I’m sure it’s very hard. You are among lots of brides in the same situation. Hopefully everything works out and you will be able to find something that works for you as soon as this is all over. Stay positive! Good luck!

    Your not ridiculous at all. My wedding date that we had been planning for 2 1/2 years was to be 4/26 and now we had to post pone today😩 I’ve been crying for the past two weeks. But now that I have rescheduled it I’m feeling bit better. I know it’s hard, but think about the positive. God never gives us anything we can’t handle. Hang in there!!

    Not ridiculous, not even slightly, rather brave and clearsighted. You have done the right thing, and even though you know it is right... it still hurts, I think maybe? - because of all the hopes and dreams and heart you have put into it already, as well as the helpless feeling as fate seemed to just lift a finger and take it away.

    But it hasn't, has it? Let yourself hurt, but also focus on the new date when you and your new husband will take it back. Forever.

    My April wedding was postponed to October.

    I've been devastated. I was so ready and excited only to basically start the countdown all over again.

    At times I'm fine with the decision. Other times, I'll randomly get sad and start to cry. I'm grieving for my wedding and I'm okay with that. I know it'll just take time to get over.

    Hang in there ❤️

    I cried all day when we decided to cancel! It was torture calling and texting everyone! Hang in there! It makes me feel better knowing I’m not alone in all of this and these feelings

    You are absolutely not being ridiculous! This is the day you've dreamed of since a little girl and have been planning and envisioning the details of it for months or years! I think you are entitled to grieve over the loss of your dreams and plans. I cried almost all day Thursday when I realized I really have to cancel or postpone, and our venue won't give us our money back if we don't use her only available date in August (avg is 98F that date!) That to say you are not alone! I think all of our hearts go out to everyone affected by this uncertain time. Sending all of the spring/summer 2020 brides good vibes! You are not alone in this! Smiley heart

    Thank you. We were able to reschedule all our vendors without any fees or anything. The love and support I've gotten from family, friends and even our vendors has been amazing.

    We just rescheduled for October as well. It's still heartbreaking but the love and support we've gotten from not just our friends and family but our vendors as well has been truly amazing.

    I made myself not cry last night. I didn't want my FH to feel worse than he already does. We have rescheduled and that's made me feel better about it and everyone has been so kind to us so that helps too.

    I would not want to get married on August. I'm so sorry. That's seriously the only date she has available for the rest of the year? My venue was absolutely amazing and told us her available dates for the rest of the year and if that wasn't a good time for us then we could push it back some more.

    Good! I am so glad for you!! I feel like most vendors are being so flexible and trying to accommodate everyone. Have you decided on a date yet?


    Believe it or not, I had a friend inquire about other dates this fall and found out she was lying about only having August!! I guess since she has my money, she wants to keep the good dates available to sell those! It’s an unfortunate situation, but we are trying to make the best of it. I guess I have to just say goodbye to the money and go elsewhere or take my August date and pray it’s unseasonably cool! Either way Karma comes around for everyone eventually, so I’m doing my best to handle this with grace in the meantime.

    Yes, we have decided on a date. October 17th.


    Can you talk to the venue and inquire about other dates? I'd hate to see you lose all that money because she couldn't accommodate you.

    Wow, that's horrible. I don't even know how to tell people the date has changed. A ton of people RSVP'ed no because of this crap so we are thinking some of those nos could become yeses. Good luck.

    How lovely! That will make the new day special in a whole new way (maybe she has a little something you could use for your something borrowed?). Look at it this way, you and all the other brides are having a hard time now, but will have such a story of love and determination to tell your children.
