July Brides?

Hi Marissa!


My wedding is on the 23rd of July 2020. I have been waited for this wedding for 23 years!!!!!!! We started very young, and didn’t have money to even think about a wedding 23 years ago. Now after 3 kids and ups and down, I am looking forward to it. I am browsing for information every single day. Adding small things on our wedding-planner-notebook.
We didn’t cancel anything so far, and keep hoping that until then things calmed down and I can have my dream wedding and honeymoon.
Good luck to all of us 🥂

No one is reaching out to you because it is still so far in advance. Also, if and when the time comes, you'll need to be the one reaching out to them. You're at least 16ish weeks out, and most vendors probably have anywhere from 5-30 brides ahead of you. And they're all dealing with March 21-April 11 right now.


You should wait. Give it 8-10 weeks. See how things are going.
I rescheduled my entire wedding 11 days out from my date with almost zero issues. While it takes a while to plan a whole wedding, one can easily be rescheduled in about 2 hours.

I would wait. My wedding was scheduled April 24. Grooms parties not permitted to fly, so I postponed. I'm trying for mid July. I'd wait just to see, reassess about a month out

Hi Marisa,
We are “twin dates”. My wedding is also scheduled for July 25, 2020. I completely understand how you feel right now. Before making a decision right now, my planner and the venue both advised me to check back at the 1st of May to see how things are looking as far as the outbreak in case if we do have to reschedule the wedding for a different date. The venue did say right now all events and weddings they currently had scheduled from March-May are all being rescheduled starting July and beyond.

I am trying not to stress. Unfortunately, at this point all we can do is wait. I’ve already ordered my wedding invitations. I did contact the vendor I used for the invitations and luckily they were very understanding and agreed to hold off from printing and shipping my wedding invitations for now considering everything that’s going on.
My bridal shower is scheduled for May and my bachelorette party is scheduled for June. I did talk to my MOH and told her we might have to cancel both of those if things do not improve.
My fiancé and I are discussing a ‘Plan B’. If all else fails and we have to push the wedding back then we will go to the courthouse on our date and just have the wedding on the rescheduled date. The sad thing is none of us really know when is a good time to reschedule.

Our wedding is scheduled for June 27 2020 and we are still planning ahead as scheduled. I did check with our vendors just in case and they do have slots open later in the year.

FH and I will happily take a later date or even a 2021 date if we cannot take our June date however. We both want to ensure that the March/April events get taken care of first and we can handle what is left.
