June 2020 Weddings Amidst covid Outbreak

View Quoted Comment Same bridal shower and wedding date. Just postponed my shower today 🙁

I have already postponed my Wedding to September. I was very distraught at the idea, but now I am ok with it as long as everyone is now going to come to the wedding. I got a few calls from family and friends stating they would not be able to come to the wedding. Most of my family and friends are coming from the west coast and I live in Wisconsin. I am going to have a small ceremony in April and then have my wonderful big wedding in September.

I know it is hard to decide but if there is people coming from long distances it might be a better idea they may not be able to afford coming after this pandemic. I am hoping that we are not still in the middle of all of this. I pray that all of you can decide one way or another and that your day is just as beautiful and wonderful as you imagined it to be no mater what day your wedding is on.

June 13th wedding here... I feel all of your pain..

We're planning the wedding from a different state. I was supposed to fly home a couple weeks ago to do my hair/makeup trial, meet with all our vendors, do the tasting and we had to cancel that entire trip. Now I won't be able to go in for my fitting either. We already sent out our invitations last month.

We are looking at new dates and thinking about postponing to the end of September. The situation is bad here in New York and only gonna get worse. The virus hasn't even peaked yet. Who knows where we'll be in June, but even if things have improved, most of our guests won't feel comfortable enough to travel, let alone attend a wedding with 100+ guests. I don't want my guests to have to worry about getting sick or spreading the virus. Hoping things will be okay in September, worried there will be a second wave at that time. Only time will tell. On the bright side, it'll give us a little more time to plan. Good luck, brides. We will get through this. Hang in there.

View Quoted Comment My wedding date is June 20th to😭 we also have been engaged for almost two years. I have had my heart set on this date. I hate this is all happening. I really pray we don’t have to cancel.

View Quoted Comment We decided this week to postpone. ☹️
Our new date is 09/05/2020. It’s kind of special because we got engaged on the first Saturday of September in 2018.
I hope everything works out for you! If it comes to postponing look for the positives! I am feeling so good about our decision, even though my heart was set on June 20th!

We're date twins!! My fiancé and I were supposed to get married on June 20th and we've decided to hold on to our date and get legally married on the 20th but, we postponed our actual wedding to September 5th. This has been an emotional roller coaster for me because we don't live together yet, but, I'm being positive. I feel good about our new date!

Joining all the other 6/20/2020 brides. We haven't postponed yet, but have started making contingency plans. It's really important to get married on/have our anniversary be June 20th becuase my parents and my fiance's parents were both married June 20th so that's why we initially picked the date. We are thinking that we could have a civil ceremony 6/20 then push everything we planned for our wedding to a different date including the religious ceremony.

I want to honor our wedding party still have everyone there to celebrate with vows and walking down the aisle, but we would already be officially married. It's not ideal, but I am trying to picture how friends and family will respond knowing that it's becuase of the circumstances. Is anyone else planning to do something similar?

Update: we've also decided to postpone. Original date was 6/20, new date is 10/24. While I'm truly sad that we have to wait, it's actually a relief at this point. Because of everything being closed, it completely halted our planning and if we were to keep the June date, it would be impossible to finish everything up once things slowly start to open up here again in Ohio. It's only a couple months longer of being engaged and we'll have the rest of our lives to be married.

AHH I feel your pain and while others have it worse, its still your special day and your allowed to feel this way about yourself! Everyone's situation is different! We were supposed to be married on April 17th but we had to postpone. We postpone to June 27th thinking last weekend in June would be good and since it was the only Saturday left at our venue ... now however, I am again feel confused, frustrated and stressed by this all thinking June might not happen.

We just made the decision today to cancel our wedding 😫. We’re still getting married on the 27th of June however, it’ll likely be just us two and a photographer. Nice thing about CO is couples can marry each other legally and are not required to have witnesses or an officiant (not our ideal situation but for right now it helps us). Our original plan was to get married in MN (where I’m from) with close to 250-300 guests. We couldn’t see MN opening up large gatherings with that many people at the end of June so we made the safe decision to cancel it as 75% of our guests were coming from out of state. We didn’t want to risk anyone traveling or attending a large gathering at that time and get exposed to anything. It’s a difficult decision and so many emotions right now however, we are not alone, we will ALL get through this together and I strongly believe that even if you are planning on a reception at a later date (which is what we will do) that will be one bada$$ party of the year when it is safe to do so!! Everyone will be looking for any excuse to celebrate us awesome couples who couldn’t have the wedding of our dreams in 2020. We deserve to have this celebration even if it means postponing it to a later date. Cheers to you all!!

I too had my heart set on June 20, 2020 since before we got engaged almost 18 months ago. I think that is why I didn't feel right picking August 7 as my back up date. It felt forced. I know June will not happen here in Los Angeles, so after much talking and finally thinking logically rather than emotionally (lots of crying last month), I have decided to postpone for June 20, 2021. Same date, different year. I feel such a weight lifted off, and I feel better about being able to have my bridal shower and bachelorette next year (both were canceled) because I don't see how Vegas would happen this summer. But I have found a silver lining. My fiancé and I will be able to save money to buy a house this year, and we will be able to save more money for our wedding next year and it will be bigger and better than ever! I hope you find your silver lining too.

Although there's so many unknowns, we're still trying to hold onto hope right now. Our wedding is on June 28th in St. Augustine, Florida. Our original date was March 22nd, and we already postponed. Things seem to be looking up in Florida. As of Wednesday, our governor officially announced the beginning of phase 1 which will start on Monday. So we're hoping we can still have our big day, as it is still a little less than two months away. We just can't pull the plug yet, if there's still a possibility that it can happen. Anyone else in the same boat?
