Sacrament of Marriage

I had to postpone my wedding reception due to covid. It was going to be on October 31st, but since my family and friends have to travel from other country, and most of them won't comen to the States, I decided to cancel. Travel restrictions still changing, and most of them couldn't have their visa and wouldn't have it in time(all offices are closed with no specific date to reopen). Also I have some close friends that are actually infected with the Covid in the country they live, and some family members passed away because of this horrible pandemic. I really don't want to put anybody at risk.


We are getting married by catholic church, and we just talked to the priest to explain our situation, and that we decided to cancel that date. He still tried to convince us to keep on with the ceremony, as we are just civilly married, we are not actually married for the Church, and he could just marry us with a couple of witnesses. He also explain the importance of the sacrament of marriage. I understand the priest point, and that he gave his opinion on behalf of the church.
But I still feel I uneasy about it, IDK, it is important to me to share this moment with my family and friends, not even my parents are able to come. I have a few aunts (2), and my mother in law, in the that are trying to insist to do the wedding this year, with just few people attending the ceremony. Is not for the party, is for the actual ceremony that I want to share with my parents, and I know my mom would be heartbroken if she is not there. My husband supports whatever decision I make.
So what are your points of view into this spiritual matter? I mean, is not that we don't want to, is just that we do not put anybody at risk, and we want to share this with our love ones. How important is this spiritual matter to you?
