Hi! We are getting ready to order our invites but we are needing to do something before the invitations go out.

We have cut our guests list down from 130 to 70
(COVID). The problem is we have sent save the dates out to those 130 people about 3 months ago. How do we let the people that are no longer invited to our wedding know? We do have a website but I don’t think a lot of people check it and I just want to be straight forward. I don’t mind sending them something in the mail since it’s mostly extended family we don’t talk to but I don’t know what kind of verbiage to use in the letter or how to go about it. Please help! I don’t want anyone’s feelings hurt and any uninvited guests show up!

This website has a good template for a letter you can send the guests that you have to uninvite due to COVID: https://theeverylastdetail.com/coronavirus-wedding-postponement-email-templates-to-send-to-guests/

Also, if you're planning on doing a live stream of the ceremony for those you have to uninvite, I would also include that information in the letter.

Lots of websites have "change of plans" cards for this type of situation.
This is what we sent:

Eri,

I love this! Thank you so much, I have seen a lot of postponing cards but no change of plans cards. I was probably looking in the wrong section! This is exactly what I was looking for.

Will you be live streaming it? If so, you could mail something stating that due to Covid restrictions your wedding will now have to be only immediate family members & wedding party, but you cordially invite them to join you via zoom (or whatever platform you choose to live stream).
