i Need Advice - postpone wedding?

If it were I would postpone. I couldn't imagine my wedding without my family. Were you in contact with her or any of the people she has been in contact with? If so you could be exposing all of your guests. I saw an article the other day about a groom whose parents insisted that he have his wedding as planned. He was sick days before, but wasn't diagnosed with Covid at the time. They had their 400 person wedding. Two days later, the groom died and at least a hundred of guests have tested positive for Covid.

View Quoted Comment I haven’t been in contact with them so that wouldn’t be an issue, but, like you said, I’d hate for my family not to be there. I’m leaning towards postponing. Thanks for your input

View Quoted Comment You're welcome 😊 I'm sorry this is happening.

Ugh I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this! It really comes down to what is most important to you. I’m sure you’ve done a ton to plan the wedding and having to push everything, only being a week out, is awful. For me personally, I’m with Veronica, finally marrying my FH is obviously very important, but not having the family I care about the most there wouldn’t be worth it to me. You’re also running a much higher risk of guests becoming sick if a family member comes that has been exposed to your grandma, even if they don’t feel sick at all. In reading how torn you are, I would think you’ll feel a lot of relief if you postpone the wedding all together and plan for a date further out to give everyone time to recover. You could still get married privately and have the party later on too. But I think at the end of the day postponing the wedding is the right thing to do.

So sorry this is happening! I’d postpone because I’d want my family there. Also, just for the safety of everyone. So much to consider. Sending positive vibes 😊

I know how much tht would mean for your grandmother who raised you to be there. If that's the case ...i will elope and have a bigger celebration next year. Jut to make you feel comfortable and to def make sure you are there for your grandmom you know. I know that will be nerve wrecking

Oh gosh ! I think the concern would be how many of the invitees were exposed to your grandma and would need to get tested or quarantined and if you had any contact with them.
I would postpone

I’m so sorry that this happened! I would contact your venues and vendors to see if it’s a possibility at this point! Otherwise I would proceed and zoom/facebook live the wedding so they could still be apart of it.

I'm so sorry!!

I agree with everyone - I think you need to postpone. I would emphasize to your vendors that you are doing this for everyone's safety, so hopefully they won't raise a fuss.

I’m so sorry to hear about your grandmother! I hope she’s doing well. ❤️

Have you made a decision about your wedding this weekend? Do your vendors have any flexibility for you to postpone a few weeks?

It was an extremely tough decision, but we decided to carry on with our original plans. I'm sad that a quite a few of my family members won't be able to attend now, but they all encouraged me to keep the original date because we have no idea when everything will return to normal. So it will be a bit of a smaller crowd and we're streaming a private event on Facebook Live for those who are unable to make it. All in all, I'm happy with the decision because we're just ready to be married and I've thought of a few special things I will do for my grandma to make sure she feels included leading up to the day
