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.

    My future husband and I have decided to hold out a couple more weeks and see what happens. I feel like it is too early to make a decision. Our wedding is June 6th in Massachusetts. Hoping things get better soon.

    Hi all! My wedding is scheduled for 6/20/20 and I’m trying to stay positive! Haven’t moved anything just yet. My shower is the end of April which I am sure will have to be moved but I think it’s still a bit too early to change the wedding date. Wishing the best for all the brides out there! This is so stressful to go through after all of our hard work and planning!! Stay safe!

    I’m holding on!!! We live in Southern Cali but our wedding is in Pennsylvania.
    My wedding is 6/6/2020. We are getting married on that date regardless if it’s followed by our reception or not! Ugh I still can’t believe all of this is happening.

    We cancelled our June 19, 2020 wedding and are moving it to May 28, 2021. Even though it was really difficult, we realized that even if things "cleared up" in time, it would still be risky as we have a lot of older family members that will be in attendance. We don't anyone to stress and risk their health/safety to come to our special day. However, we have the means to reschedule and I realize that not everyone is in that position.

    I haven't cancelled but with that said now ai haven't sent out the invitations. My wedding in June 5, 2020. The venue had to cancel their March and April weddings and reschedule . They have given me the option to reschedule for July 31 or August 14 , Fridays. I was going to hang on another 2weeks before we decided. It would allow us more time to plan but I am pretty sad.

    I dont see how wishing someone what they want is wrong but oh well.


    Crocodile tears (or alligator as you said) are also "fake tears used to get sympathy". Might wanna change your wording on that.
    I truly hope that no one on this thread has a relative who gets sick because of their decision. I imagine its devastating to have to cancel or postpone but imagine how devastating it would be for Aunt Joan to end up on a ventilator cause you needed to have a party. I have 2 relatives in ICU right now, please dont minimize this catastrophe.
    And I truly mean it, best of luck. We all need it now.

    The phrase of "I hope you get what you want" is similar to the phrase "Bless your heart."


    Thank you, i am sure no one here has considered how devestating it might be for "Aunt Joan" to end up on a ventilator or worse. This logic actually was factored into my use of the term crocodile tears, because we already know to cancel or reschedule will not be the worse thing in the world we could face right now. But it still is a hard situation, and deserves sympathy.
    No one here is "minimizing this catastrophe". We are simply trying to make use of this safe space to share in our feelings without judgement.I am very sorry to hear about your relatives. I work in a hospital, I have sisters working in two ICUs, and have a father already in his 60s on oxygen, so the severity of the situation is not lost. Best of Luck to you as well. I am sorry you cannot see the greater purpose of allowing this to be a judgement free space, for those about to lose their day.

    Thank you!
    This is a situation that literally no one on this world is prepared for. We as brides need to hold each other up as much as we can instead to name calling. I’d say most of us have been dreaming of our wedding day since we were little girls. The fact that so many of us were or are supposed to being having our dream day ripped away is absolutely heart breaking. Though much worse things happen to other brides that are unexpected we still need to have compassion for one another. Let’s bring back the saying that we all were taught early in life “if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all”. I think brides especially ones that are already married need to stop and put themselves in our shoes. If they feel we are making the wrong call then they shouldn’t say anything at all.

    Yes, I think I’m going to get off WeddingWire because the next person that comes for me over this is going to get a mouthful. They have already deleted all my posts because I basically told her and everyone else to leave us alone if you’re not getting married in the spring/summer. There’s no way they understand. They may think they do. It’s like the saying “you’ll never know what it’s like until you have to do it”. They may empathize and feel sorry which I appreciate. But to actually be thinking about whether you will have to pull the plug on your own wedding over something you have no control over.... You can’t understand that. Be prepared to have your post deleted in the next five minuets.

    Girl If you ever need to vent shoot me a message on here! I understand we’re you are coming from. I try to stay out of things but lately it has been really bugging me the way women have been degrading one another. Almost feels like some brides especially those that are already married are happy that we are going through a difficult time.
