Is June too soon?

What are your other date options?

I am still planning for my wedding in June. I have high hopes that everything will be okay by then but if I need to change it I will. Unfortunately, my venue is booked until next year for every Saturday.

Ugh girl, that’s the same date we were given. Or July 10 & August 15th! I’ve read for brides not to change any earlier then August, but that’s just SO hard for us to do that! We’re confused like you!

Since you have to postpone anyway, I would try to aim for a date later in the summer or preferably September or October! Of course, nobody knows how long it will take us to beat this virus, but since you have to reschedule anyway, an extra piece of safety might be nice. For the record, I was supposed to attend a 50 person conference on June 29th, and it was cancelled...My advice would be to see if there are any later dates available at your venue. So sorry you have to go through this and best of luck

Go as late as possible! Fall at the earliest.

I’m a June 26th DW, I’m currently just waiting to see what happens. As of now I’m on quarantine in NY. My flights and venue told me I could move if I needed to. Trying not to panic. My dress will be here in May because of production delay. Ive talked to my guests and they are all just waiting as well. Fingers are crossed!! Good luck to you!

I also have a 4/4 wedding scheduled and i think june is too soon. I would be looking at the 6 month range so maybe september. I can’t do that because i’m a florida bride so that puts me in hurricane season so i’m now looking a year out. 😩

I am April 11th and they are only offering me July 4th. I am worried that this is too soon especially seeing other June/July brides in there considering postponing. If it's the only option, you may want to go with it but make your venue add a stipulation that you can change again given a lockdown still in place etc. If you have later dates, I think this would put your mind at ease. No one wants to postpone again!

I am moving from 04/09. Options are late August or late September. We will prob go with August.

My 4/26 is probably being moved to 6/28. 11/1 was being considered but was taken by another couple, and there is no more availability until Fall 2021. I already postponed once so I’m going to take the 6/28 and hope it works

I've been looking into this because my wedding is October and I am trying hard to not freak out.


The point of social distancing for the next 8 weeks is to slow the rate of people getting infected so we don't overwhelm our hospitals. This does not mean we'll be in the clear after mid May.
I read that if we successfully flatten the curve, we'll peak in August, but if we don't, we'll peak higher and faster. We could see a second wave in the fall.
It's not sensible to assume we'll have things under control in the same amount of time China did. China is an authoritarian country that locked down areas by force. The epidemic was limited to a few spots. Last I checked, people in Florida are still going to the beach, Kern County in CA refused to close its schools, NY is a hotbed. We have cases in all 50 states. Realistically, the only way for the pandemic to truly be over is to develop a vaccine, which would take over a year.
By June, I imagine that any mandatory restrictions would be eased, but there would still be risk of infection. We also won't know if the preventative measures worked until after we've taken them. I, personally, would be nervous of a June wedding because we have elderly family members.
Best of luck to you! My heart goes out to everyone.

View Quoted Comment Same with me!! When did u decide to postpone it to? We ended up picking april bc our venue only allows ppl to come in after 6:30 and April was the only date that has the sunset after 7... and I didnt want to risk 10/2020 with the hurricane after ALL OF THIS

3/28
We were offered
May 30. Which we felt was too soon.3 dates in August which was too soon after my bridesmaids give birth.HalloweenSat before Thanksgiving OrSaturday before Christmas
Before they gave us dates, I kinda felt June/July was as early as i would go.
