Immunocompromised Bride

Bridget, on June 21, 2020 at 9:22 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 4
Do any other brides on here have a compromised immune system that are dealing with planning and Covid 19. We just had to push our 10/10/2020 date bc we don’t feel like it’ll be healthy enough for me to enjoy the day and hug and kiss people without having to wear a mask. I know many brides are keeping their fall dates or had them pushed to fall, but we didn’t see it being worth the risk. How are other immunocompromised brides dealing with planning?

    I myself am not immune compromised but 4 of my guests are. This is not the only reason I postponed, but it was a big thing to consider. Its slightly easier for you, because you are making your own choice to be put in a risky situation or not. Covid attacks the weak systems, so for me, putting someone’s life at risk, is not what I want to do. You need to really consider what could happen if you get sick. How your guests may feel if one of them gave it to you. You would need proper N-95 masks to keep you protected from others, and even that is not 100% I think you have made the best and safest choice for you and your health, which should always come first! Good luck on planning, and I hope this settles down so you can have your wedding. one of my immune compromised friend has such a weak immune system that she can’t even have most vaccines. I hope you are able to get the vaccine when it finally is available 🤞stay safe and enjoy planning ☺️

    Thanks for sympathizing Michelle! You are so thoughtful for moving your date to consider others who are most at risk for complications if infected with the virus. Best wishes to you and yours!

    Hi Gina,

    Thanks for reaching out. We decided to push it to 4/10/21...the only date all of the vendors and church were available in April. I am hoping we don't have to postpone again.
