Postponed Wedding

I'm so sorry you had to postpone!! It's not fun, but definitely better for everyone to be healthy first. There is nothing wrong with feeling disappointed or upset at having to postpone. Your wedding will be beautiful and it will happen, just on a new date! Things may not initially work out as planned, but things typically have a way of working out in the end. I recommend maybe planning something fun for your original date - if you fiance is up for it, plan a date night or weekend away, otherwise, you could always plan a girls night or girls trip.

I agree with Lisa, turn the original date into a good memory rather than feeling disappointed all day. You are totally entitled to feel disappointed that things aren’t working out, and it’s okay to let yourself feel sad about it, but try not to dwell to long and get back to focusing on the good. I hope your FH and son recover quickly and that when you are able to reschedule everything falls into place for you.

Wow, I'm so sorry. Of course his health comes first, but I agree with the previous posters.... Tuen it into a memory.

I’m sorry to hear. Hope it all works out

I'm sorry to hear that. Of course their health comes above anything else but you have every right to feel disappointed. One thing I learned early on in my relationship is nothing goes as planned!! When we met I never thought we'd be dating for almost 10 years before getting engaged but life got in the way (he had 6 surgeries in that time) and other things took precedence. But, it never once lessened our commitment to each other. In fact I feel like our relationship is stronger because of everything we went through to get here. Your day will still be amazing and special when it does happen. Wishing them both a speedy recovery and wishing you peace and strength to get through it. Caring for a sick loved one is stressful.

I’m really sorry you’re feeling that way and hope the disappointment soon fades. Our original wedding date was also 10/10/20. But in June we decided to postpone a year to 10/30/21. The day we had the conversation about canceling sucked. But once we sat down and laid everything out, there was no denying that postponing was the best choice. So, I allowed myself a day to feel bugged about it. Then the next day, I began contacting our vendors and working on a new date. Ultimately, I couldn’t stay mad at something that was totally out of our hands and we had zero control over changing.


Since shopping cures everything, I bought a second wedding dress to wear after dinner and added in a few new ideas, since our new date is near Halloween. Also, I never expected to say this but... I absolutely love our new date more than the first one and it’s perfect for the destination wedding weekend we’re having in Vegas (additionally it now has a story behind it).. So my hope is that you’ll open yourself up to finding the bright sides as well. Best wishes!
