    Our wedding is 9-12-20 and our venue is limited to 50 guests. We initially had 52 guests (plus the 4 of us) on our guest list, but a few people can’t make it so it worked out.

    Our wedding is 10/4/20 postponed from 5/9/20. We originally had 130 guests but will be hosting only about 75. We stayed with the same venue and they have been helpful and accommodating, even telling us we could have our original guest count, but we chose to uninvite some people, and many now can’t make it. The smaller the better for us!

    No dancing is allowed except a first dance and we can use the venues speakers to play our playlist, so no DJ. A local florist is making my bouquet and FH’s boutonnière, and our event coordinator is decorating the table with fresh cut greenery, we won’t have any other flowers. Our reception is pretty much just breakfast (we’re having a sunrise ceremony), first dance, cake cutting, and then everyone is welcome to either join us in town or go off and do their own thing.

    Our wedding has always been scheduled for 10/10/20 and our count has always been about 50 and we've never changed or altered the count or venue. It was always scheduled outdoors for both the ceremony and reception and even if it rains we'll be fine.

    We are sticking with our original date and venue with about 120 guests. We've moved our reception outside to allow for more space to spread our guests out

    Our wedding is September 26th and our guest list is 155 people. I've only received 65 confirmed RSVPs and 11 declines. We're thinking about 100 guests will come. Our venue doesn't have any restrictions but my fiance and I are trying to implement safety measures, like spacing tables apart, having a seating chart, cafeteria style serving, and germ x stations.

    I’m having about 75-80. So far, everything is staying the same since I originally planned. Keeping my fingers crossed!
