My wedding date is 11/6/20, and we want to wait til the summer and see what the COVID situation looks like then. But I think my biggest concern is really what the wedding atmosphere will be if we do keep the date. I dont want an awkwardly spaced out, mask wearing reception. At all. If it's looking like thats what it will be, we will cancel. And if there is a second wave like they are thinking, we may have to cancel anyways...
We are not willing to postpone the actual wedding (we've been engaged 2 years and are ready for the next chapter). So we decided if we cant have our original day, we will still get married with just immediate family at a courthouse on/around that day. We dont see the point in paying the money to have a reception/celebration at the venue several months down the road either.
I'm already a little upset about the loss of 2 specific moments- the first dance and the father daughter dance. And we have considered having an "I Do BBQ" in 2021 and inviting everyone from the original guest list, but it still doesnt have that wedding feel and makes me a little sad. Does anyone have any ideas on how we could still make this special if we do have to cancel? I know its about our love for eachother, which is why I am happy with the courthouse, but I want to be able to enjoy this moment with our friends and family as well.
P.S. Feel free to tell me I'm worrying over nothing to ease my anxiety 😅
