June and July Brides do not stress Covid-19!!!

I am a June 6th bride who works in healthcare. There's Lots of anxiety and uncertainty right now. Bridal Shower is mid April which will more than likely get postponed. I have family from Europe and west Africa who are supposed to come so we are hoping and praying this situation gets better.

I needed to hear this today! Thank YOU! Our wedding was scheduled on 5/8 and we just postponed to 7/19.

View Quoted Comment I’m the same date as you and feel the same way. I already had to cancel my bachelorette. The thing I’m most worried about is even if things have settled down by August, people need to make travel plans much sooner than that and it’s hard to ask people to think about travel right now. No easy answers and I’m feeling terrible for everyone that’s had to postpone already.

Hi ladies


Please take everything in strides. One day at a time. I live in NYC where it's the epicenter and our Governor is releasing updates daily to keep us very informed and ensuring too keep calm. Im also getting married with 80% of my guests from NY and I'm not fretting...we will get over this! Let's just do our part and stay calm....trust me it will help when all your family members and guests asking you about postponing. If we have seniors/family members with underlying issues let's protect them by making sure they have all the natural vitamin C ..oranges grapefruit lemon key limes elderberry...warm raw lemon peel ginger teas DAILY..just as a natural preventative. I'm originally from the islands and we use lots of natural remedies where we also usually boil water with orange peel garlic and put or face over it to steam out mucus...I'm not doctor or nurse but it really works...stay positive and im wishing a quick turnaround so we can all enjoy one of the best events of our lives!

Maybe not stressing, but absolutely consider that this will NOT be over by June/July. China is just starting to turn things around after 4 months, but the US is NOT in the same situation. People are getting infected at a faster rate and people are continuing to not follow the guidelines of staying at home. Pray if that helps you, but you are not in the clear yet. I really don't want to sound like a negative nancy, just trying to be realistic in the face of what we're up against. Take it from me that the sooner you accept your wedding will not be what you imagine, the easier it will be to swallow. Keeping unrealistic expectations will likely make you more upset in the long run. Get your marriage license if you can so you can at least have the legal portion done when you want (then go back home!). Your vendors are also not the know-all do-all. They don't want to cancel your event so they will likely not be communicating with the best intentions regarding if you should postpone or not.

Keep hope, pray, do whatever you need to do, but the blind optimism is not the right path for anyone anymore.

View Quoted Comment Exactly! We have a lot of people traveling, so I know the feeling! My bachelorette party is not until 8/1, but my family was looking at a bridal shower for early summer. That is not going to happen now.


There are definitely some uneasy feelings with all of this that I wish none of us had to go through!

View Quoted Comment I totally understand the feelings of disappointment!! This is for sure not something you plan for when you are planning you wedding. All of the time, effort, and money involved in planning just for us to think it may not happen. My heart goes out to all the brides that already had to cancel/post-pone/make adjustments to their weddings.

View Quoted Comment That's so cool! Yes I hope it stays that way as well. I have just been getting decorations and things...stuff we can use even if our wedding is post-poned. But I'm with you...I won't be giving my vendors the rest of the money until I see where this is going.

View Quoted Comment I definitely feel you on that! The stress gets a little strong each week. But positive vibes to you! And hopes that both of our wedding plans go the way we want them to!

Ours is June 21st. I sent invitations out yesterday. We want to go forward with our wedding but I feel bad bc I know so many ppl are affected in a negative way. We are in limbo bc everything here is on hold until April.

View Quoted Comment Our wedding date is July 19 as well (:

View Quoted Comment Same! But I'll definitely still look good for him and wear my dress since it's paid for (:

We postponed our 06.06 wedding to 08.08 to be safe since I don’t think social distancing will be quite over with by June.

Amen amen amen!!!!!

We moved our 4/4 wedding to 7/18, SO AMEN TO THAT!!!!!!

View Quoted Comment Date twin ! I agree ! Let’s stay positive this will all work out 🙏🏾🤞🏾🤗

Ours is July 11th! I'm staying hopeful and keeping the faith. God is sovereign so I will trust in Him ❤ keep the faith my sisters

View Quoted Comment I feel this. My guest list is a lot of older relatives and family friends. The wedding is less worrisome than I am of their health. We had to postpone to August (at least it buys extra time to make a decision if anything else changes, like a secondary resurgence of Corona after things open up again)

View Quoted Comment Amen in Jesus name. My wedding date is 4/25/20 and I am keeping the faith.

Mine is July 4th! Taking it day by day.
