June brides, anyone canceling?

June brides, how are you holding up? Canceling, postponing, or holding on? I’m holding on and praying things turn for the better. I just financially can’t afford to postpone or cancel.

    I postpone to August 8th. This thing will probably slow down by mid May. June will be too soon. I hope you postpone.

    Yea girl! I literally stress about not knowing if I am gonna have to reschedule every day. I am like I just want to know so I can plan accordingly. I am hoping this will all be over by my wedding date 05.23.

    My fiancé and I decided to postpone from June until September. We felt the safety of our guests was paramount. Even though this pandemic may end early, people may still be fearful of large crowds.

    Yes you are right. If people cancel because they are fearful of larger crowds, I will understand. Postponing or canceling is not in the cards for us at the moment. Unless we are in a nation shut down that I have no control of.

    My wedding is June 27th! I am trying to stay positive. We are getting married in Vermont and live in NJ. A lot of our guests are older and also a lot will be flying in and need to stay at a hotel. My fiancé wants me to reschedule to June 26th 2021 but I just cannot commit to rescheduling until early May...
    I’m just worried because if I make the call to keep my day come May 1st people may be still fearful of large crowds, especially my older family members, and won’t want to book a flight or hotel.
    I am completely at a loss here because I feel like I’m the only one holding onto any hope, my fiancé’s parents and my fiancé are telling me to reschedule.

    Our wedding is June 27th. The unknown is the toughest part. Our vender said they aren’t rescheduling yet, as they’re hopeful it will work out. I will start invitations soon and include a short note. Thinking I should cut the guest list shorter, but we sent STDs. Our honeymoon to Northern Italy is planned and paid for in July. We stand to lose a lot of money. There is absolutely nothing we can do, so I’m focusing on other projects for now. We will most likely get married on the date regardless in front of our parents, 7 kids, and my best friend as the officiant. Then the big bash will be at a later date. As for Italy? That’s not looking good either.... Hang in there June brides. Praying it works out for everyone. ❤️

    That’s tough! It’s not fun being the only one on the opposite side. I say go with your gut. Even if that means people will be upset with you. My grandparents probably won’t come if I keep my date and they probably won’t come if I push it back. Wishing you the best!

    My fiance and I are worried and stressed. We are waiting until the end of April and go from there. I really don't want to postpone.

    We are June 6 and worried! Is anyone else waiting to see if their venue cancels on them first? While we have asked for back up dates we don’t want to pull the plug just yet because we’d lose a lot of money if we pull the plug vs having our venue do it. Anyone else in this position?

    Holding up so far glad you made this post I had a full on bridezilla moment today crying, throwing a fit, very embarrassing I'm not proud... this has been one of the most stressful things I've ever done and this virus is not helping any 😑🙄 I'm also not about to put my most vulnerable family members at risk but I'm just gonna pray for the best and play it by ear at this point.

    Oh girl been there done that. I literally had a full on brat meltdown on FT with my sister yesterday. My niece was laughing at me 😅. It’s okay, you are allowed to bridezilla at the current moment and not feel guilty about it!

    I believe that’s what 95% of us are doing! Holding on and praying things turn around or the venue cancels. Just pay attention to your contract, they like to sneak small terms and conditions in there. Good luck!

    My wedding was supposed to be April 18. We are hoping to reschedule for late August but not making a decision until June. A couple weeks ago I was in the “moving forward no matter what” mindset. Then this thing snowballed. And guess what? It still is. Even if it slows down by May (which seems unlikely) people will still be weary of leaving their homes much less traveling. Some of your friends and family may be facing financial devastation as well. It’s hard to look beyond all the planning and the MONEY but I strongly recommend you start talking to your vendors about a plan B. It’s time.

    We decided to cancel our June 26th wedding. It was heartbreaking, I literally cried for two days. But since we were planning a destination wedding it was just too much uncertainty, and we have family who travel would just be too high risk for. We’ve decided to have an in state wedding on our dating anniversary in October instead.



    I hope your big day turns out magical!! I know the stress is beyond overwhelming right now but it’ll all be worth it. ❤️
