Rescheduling Covid Nightmare

My FH and I were supposed to be getting married October 10 however due to Covid we will be rescheduling to January 30. I was dead set on 10 1020 to be our wedding day I’m torn between still getting married on that day and having a reception on January 30 however we would still have a mini ceremony that day where we exchange vows. I’m so torn in between what I should do. Should I just wait to do the whole thing until January 30? Also everything related to bachelorette party/ bridal shower was pushed to end of October (we’d already be married) I also feel like I’d want us to do a mini moon If we do but feel bad that those funds should go to the wedding or actual honeymoon after 1.30.21
I literally planned everything around 10.10.20 I waited 2 years to have it for that specific date.

That’s such a tough choice! If the date is super important to you, it’s absolutely okay to get legally married on that date and then do everything else after as planned. Only the two of you can decide what is right for you, but either way, it’ll be okay. You’ll be marrying each other and get to spend your lives together!

I say go for it! But I may be a little biased because my fiance and I are legally getting married in October and having our actual wedding in March. Our family is fine with it, but at the end of the day it was my fiances and my decision.

We postponed from April to September, and honestly I regret doing that. In hindsight I would’ve had a small ceremony with immediate family and dinner afterwards. The mental toll of postponing for five months with everything still changing was really difficult for me

I'd say also stick with your original date. 10/10/20 is my date too so I'm also probably biased haha. But honestly you could still have your mini ceremony that day and it'll still be beautiful. This is what I'm doing, we just cut our guest list down to 25 people, and will then live stream for those that couldn't come. We not having a larger celebration next year until covid is long gone. I honestly think the virus won't be going away anytime soon, with the way the government is handling things. This could still go on through 2021 and you don't want to constantly be rescheduling. Good luck to you! 💕

I would say since it's only a couple months in between, to just wait and get married on your new postponed date.
