Postponed Reception Details, Help!

Kristin, on April 4, 2020 at 7:29 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 4
Hi brides to be! My fiancé and I are in the same boat as many of you all are. Our wedding is scheduled to take place on May 28, however we have now secured an alternate date in August and will be making the decision to most likely postpone within the next couple of weeks. Like many of you we have been engaged for two years and dating for nine. We are still planning to get married on the 28th, just us and our officiant, but then move the reception to a later date. What are you all doing about your wedding dress, are you wearing it to both? And what is your pospones date looking like? Are you redoing the ceremony version for everyone, having a vow renewal, or just the reception? Help! Smiley smile

    We moved ours from May 30th to September 11th. If the courts are open we are still getting married May 30th by a justice of the peace. I bought a casual white cocktail dress to wear to this and plan on saving my actual wedding dress for September. We’re still doing a full ceremony in September as originally planned.

    Hi Kristin,

    It's very proactive to start thinking about your options now! Based on the discussions I'm seeing, couples are doing MANY different things when it comes to Plan B. Here are some links to ongoing conversations:

    - Ideas in Place of a Reception

    - Ceremony now, party later

    Or, here are some May brides who decided to postpone their weddings:

    - May Wedding Postponed.

    - Postponed our May wedding - the original post is about having a small ceremony in May and rescheduling for August

    Lastly, WeddingWire has created resources that may be helpful as you navigate the planning process during this unprecedented time: Our COVID-19 Weddings Advice Guide.

    Good luck! Smiley heart

    I've been back and forth on wearing my wedding dress for the original date as well. I figured it this way.. if my fiance cant get his suit in enough time then no, I'll just wear a cocktail dress. If he has his suit I'm wearing it twice. Gotta get all the use out of it 😅
