South Carolina Fall Weddings 2020? Covid?

Andrea, on June 24, 2020 at 11:34 AM Posted in South Carolina Planning 0 2

Hi all! I know there are probably hundreds of discussions like these but I wanted to see if anyone is planning on getting married in South Carolina Sept.-Nov. and if you're going through with it or if you postponed?

We live in Kentucky but are planning on getting married October 3rd, 2020 in Hilton Head Island (well, right off the island) and I am starting to get stressed to the MAX! I am seeing people are really not practicing social distancing down there and I'm a nervous wreck that a second shut down will happen at the end of summer. We have pretty much decided that if our date cannot happen we will just cancel and not postpone Smiley sad We are both about to be 31, we've been dating 8 years and already had a 1.5 year engagement so our hearts are set on trying to start a family in the fall.

Also, can I just say I was the person that was not rushed at all to get married, wanted to take our time and travel, and make sure we were financially stable until we took that step. If I would've KNOWN a WORLD WIDE PANDEMIC was going to happen I would've never been that person. Like how in the world did this happen? lol

    Hey! Me and my fiancé are planning on getting married October 10 in the Upstate of SC. I am a little stressed by the rise in cases in SC. We are still planning to go ahead with our wedding on schedule. I don’t know what that will mean for us if they close things down or limit the number of people we can invite... I figure a lot of people won’t come because of fear of the virus. If too much changes I think we will have a super small ceremony and try to move all our vendors to next year for a vow renewal or something. So yeah all this is very stressful. I kind of feel the same way as you about waiting... I turn 40 next week and I have been dating my fiancé on and off for almost 20 years. I know that sounds crazy, right? I was just telling my maid of honor today that I don’t want to sound selfish or like a spoiled brat but I kind of feel like I’m getting all these special moments taken away from me at a time that should be so exciting. 😕

    Hi Andrea! I'm in NC so I definitely understand your anxiety, but all the local predictions and guidelines keep changing so quickly it's still hard to say what October will look like!

    Here's a discussion from another October brides in SC, you should definitely connect with them:
