How should i tell people the wedding is canceled?

If I Were In Your Shoes I Would Send Out A Group Text/Facebook Message/Email To Everyone So That They All Receive A Message Individually Without Me Sending Them All Separately. Im Sorry You Have To Cancel.

Wow to hear that. I agree with Trisha I would send a group message letting them know.

One we were invited to just did a fb post then are following up with people.

I would call each household to let them know. Maybe I’m old-school, but I don’t think social media is the best way to communicate something like this. I don’t see like 80% of my friends posts so I think it’s pretty likely that someone would miss it.

Could you choose a Sunday ?


I’m sure you have already thought of that.. sorry !!!

We just messaged everyone. I felt that it was better to tell everyone quickly, as we canceled two weeks out.

Hello,

As the current state of the world becomes more and more unpredictable, as have our wedding plans. As a result, and after much consideration we have decided to postpone the wedding until a later date. This decision did not come easy, however it is much better for all involved.

We apologize for the short notice, and hope that you will be able to join us for the future celebration.

Thank you for understanding and stay healthy.

Love,

Alexis and Craig

Calling sounds fine if that's what feels right for you. If you need help with wording a message we have a guide on How to Word Your Wedding Postponement Announcement.

Phone calls, or email, are considered perfectly proper for cancelling an event.
If email, make sure it is not a terse, brief one, but written like a short letter.
Apology first, we are so sorry we ... Given reason, Due to the need to avoid gatherings...Say if you plan to reschedule the wedding at some point, or plan to marry with a small private ceremony, if you know.Wish them well. Don't let it sound like a text. But like a note , delivered by email.And for anyone you do not reach, phone or email, write a note on plain paper, like the one for email. Etiquette does not require a printed or purchased anything, for a cancellation. And here, people expect it. So it will be easy.
