Postponing Hurts 💔 - Sorry i had to Vent

Belle, on July 14, 2020 at 2:07 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 3
After 23 years of dreaming of a wedding after our elopement, DH finally went on his knees. Only a week later we heard about this horrifying covid, and last month we realized we had to postponed it a bit because of the quarantine requirements in Hawaii. It was already painful and cost us money. Yet again, this August won’t happen. We have to postpone, again. This time I don’t want to choose a date, afraid to get hurt again if covid is still causing problems in society. Honestly, I personally think covid will stick around for many many months. Unless someone found the cure or vaccine, this quarantine, lockdown, shelter in place, and social distancing will hurts us in many ways and we can’t do anything about it. I feel sick to my stomach thinking about covid. Too many lives are taken, too many suffer, too many are hurting financially. I just want this nightmare to stop already 😭 I just want my family to see me happy in my wedding, especially my parents because they are getting old and not in their best shape. I can’t even visit them for now 😔


We hope that we still can honor our July 23rd and cut our cake and have photographs taken by the photographer. That’s all we can do for now... at least.
I hope everyone have a great planning 🥂

    Sending lots of hugs and warm wishes! I share in your moment of grief in changing your date and going through this difficult timing. It really is a big misfortune for all of us soon to be brides that are caught in the middle of this pandemic. At the same time just seeing everyone share their stories brings so much hope and joy. I'm very happy to hear that you will be doing a nice intimate gesture honoring your wedding day. Congratulations Smiley cry Smiley ring

    I feel your stress and hurt! It looks like people have managed some beautiful and fun weddinga during covid. But also you waited for this big day and you deserve an amazing one! If you can, maybe hold off on picking a new day until the next big piece of good news hits so you cam feel more hopeful and confident in doing so.

    I'm so sorry Belle. That has to really hurt! I would definitely still try to honor your July 23rd wedding date with cake and pictures! Like you said, we all have no idea when things are going to turn around, so I'd certainly celebrate in a small way now. Smiley cake

    Thinking of you Belle! Smiley heart
