Unfortunately, we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID-19. What is the best way to inform guests of the new date? Digitally? Mail? Combination of both? I am updating our website but only so many people check that. I also plan on posting on social media.

I let people know we postponed via text/call and will send out change the date cards for the new date and have people RSVP online. We had already sent our invitations out and collected RSVPs before the outbreak really hit.

We just sent out an email. And then we’ll send our original invitation but digitally through email in July.

Digitally would be the easiest option if you have everyone’s email address. It’s a good way to also send a link to the wedding website and encourage people to check back there for updates

Hi Jordan,
I'm so sorry you had to change your plans, but you are not alone. Keeping a positive attitude (through a funny announcement) can only help during this unprecedented situation.
Here are a couple of discussions with postponement examples:
- Coronavirus Postpone Announcements
- Website Wording for Postponed Weddings due to COVID-19
You'll also find more information (less funny) here: How to Word Your Wedding Postponement Announcement. There's also a glass half-full perspective piece: “My Wedding Was Postponed Due to Covid-19, but Now I Get a ‘Do-Over’” (with a link to a video at the bottom).
I'm wishing you the best of luck!
