How to word not invited to wedding due to Covid 19

I love Caytlyn's idea!! I think it's a perfect compromise, and in general I think everyone will be really understanding that you're trying to act with an abundance of caution for everyone's safety!

I don't agree with inviting the 50 guests then dashing the other 25-30 guests to the side. While you don't have to come up with an excuse, just being honest is the best way to go about the situation. Especially if you sent them a save-the-date and have been keeping them in the loop; follow our website, here is the change the data, we'll keep you in the know.

If I were guest, I would rather hear "hey, we are following the guidelines and had to make guest cuts but here is our Zoom link vs dang, I never got an invitation from Renee but we just spoke last month about how excited we both were." People are understanding, just be real with them.

We’re sorry we’re not able to have you join us in person, but restrictions have limited our guest list. We are saddened the celebration won’t be exactly what we pictured and hope when things get back to normal we cant wait to see you in person.
