Postponing August Wedding?

Our wedding date is August 28th and I’m not sure what to do at this point but I’m feeling a lot of pressure from my Vendors because they said they’d do whatever date we decide to move it to if we do decide to do that but their 2021 availability is going fast and they want to make sure they can be available for us. There are still a bunch of small details that need to get done. I was supposed to get my dress altered in May and now they’re talking about pushing the stay at home order until June. The guys don’t have their tuxes. I haven’t found anyone to do my makeup/hair. I haven’t sent out invitations because I’m not sure what we’re doing. I was thinking about electronic invites but I have no clue how to do that. I’m kind of panicking so any advice would be much appreciated!

My wedding is July 18 and I still haven’t sent out any invites. At this point, I’m still having my wedding even if a lot of the guests can’t come. My fiancé doesn’t have his suit, I don’t have a makeup/hair person. I would get married now and have a big reception at a later date. As a bride, we have a right to get married on OUR day that we originally booked. Plus I’m older and so is my fiancé, we don’t want to wait another year to have kids.

Paperlesspost is a great option for e-vites.

Hi Alison,
I'm sorry you're having to think about postponing your August wedding on top of planning your big day.
I agree with the recommendations above. While this is definitely an uncertain time, it seems like plenty of August couples are waiting to make postponement decisions. Of course, everyone's situation is different, so it never hurts to be proactive about plan B!
