So, how many of everyone's wedding plans are being affected by the corona virus?


My fiance's and I's, our wedding is a still long way out - Oct. 3., but how many weddings are currently impacted by the on-going virus? Consider this a safe thread to vent frustrations.

    My wedding was scheduled for 03/29. The wedding venue postponed it to 06/07. I was very sad yesterday when I heard the news, but I’m trying to stay positive!

    I suffer from anxiety so this happening has been a MAJIOR problem in my life right now. My wedding is in June and though I am staying positive I can’t help but to worry about all the what if’s. I am also an upcoming teacher; I just finished my masters in December so I have been on the look for a job. I was given a long term sub position that was to start on the 30th of March. Since schools in my area are closed till April 17th I am missing out on 3 out of the 6 weeks that I was supposed to do. Along with the schools closing I am not getting paid for 5 weeks because I am a substitute teacher. Being home alone while my FH works has been a drain on my socially and emotionally. Today has been a better day. I deleted Facebook off my phone because I could not handle all the fake and unreliable news I was seeing. I took a free dance class online today to try and calm myself. I also gave myself a spa day in the comfort of my own home. I’m trying to take this day by day and hope for the best.

    We would be out $1200+ for our cabin and venue, plus another $1500+ or - on my dress, jewelry, shoes, alterations and his suit.

    My wedding was supposed to be April 25, we postponed to July 11. Just didn't want to put anyone in a compromising position and for me not having my grandparents in attendance was not an option. Thankfully all our vendors were still available and we haven't lost any money (except of course what was spent on our invitations and some small things we had personalized with the date). Just praying everything will be okay in time for July 11! I'm trying to look at the bright side and have a sense of humor about all this, but tears have definitely been shed! We realized July 11 is actually the day we met so maybe it's meant to be!

    My fiance and I have one last major church requirement before we can marry and it's attending this couples weekend retreat in June. This normally would not stress me out but because of the virus right now, my mom is freaked out about my health. Sadly, there is no online alternative for this, this is something my fiance and I have to attend together in person. It's in June though, so hopefully things will be calmer and somewhat back to normal by then.

    I am starting to feel the frustration now, at least when it comes to this June appointment. Other issues my fiance and I can deal with, along with support from our wedding planners. We can cut down the guest list, schedule our reception for a later date and possibly live stream the event for guests who cannot attend.

    I have my wedding dress too, it's sitting in a delivery box by the piano. I haven't even tried it on since the fitting in-store.
