Still curious.... taking a poll!!

I would attend. I think more people would be more likely to attend if the wedding was completely outdoors.

Going to a wedding in early September so I would be comfortable.

I would attend if I didn’t have to travel to a destination. Local weddings 1-2 hrs out or a drive away is okay with me

Masks would have to be required the whole time at minimum. But I would still decline.

I would decline.

As a bride in the Midwest in a city that has hit the "hotspot" list several times already, yes I would attend. Our wedding is November and we plan on having 150 people for an outdoor ceremony and an indoor/outdoor reception. We also just traveled to Denver for my cousins wedding earlier this month. I honestly think it'll depend on your guests who will come. Most of our family said they wont miss it, including those out of state.

I would decline, it's too risky.

The only way I would attend any wedding right now is if I loved the couple dearly and it was a really small event that occurred entirely outdoors or in an open air setting. Like best friend getting married, 30 person event, outdoors, local (I'm in the northeast, where cases are way more under control than the rest of the country) all local responsible and considerate guests who are probably being modestly cautious like me.

I don't really want to risk my health to mingle with a bunch of strangers to celebrate with a casual friend. Just not worth it to me.

Unfortunately, my husband and I just had to decline an invitation to his friend's wedding at the beginning of September. It was originally scheduled for April, but they postponed until September. The wedding was taking place on an island in Boston. To get to the wedding, all guests would have to ride a boat. The boat was only traveling to and from the island once so if someone wanted to leave early that wasn't an option. Everyone would also be crowded onto this one boat so socially distancing would be extremely difficult. My husband's work has also asked him to avoid traveling out of state unless for emergency purposes. Additionally, my husband and I are trying to conceive so I wouldn't want to expose myself to anything in the event I become pregnant. I'm not sure of exactly how many guests were invited, but I know his friend had a rather large family and a lot of friends so I imagine the guest list was rather large.

View Quoted Comment

I agree with the completely outdoors comment.

We're attending a wedding in four (?) weeks that I expect will have about 100 people so yes, I would go.

Not around that many people, no. Even over 50-60 is too many for me, but I have asthma and work with vulnerable populations. Where there is alcohol, there will be those forgetting their distance.

I wouldn't go to any events this year or maybe even first half of next year. People can't wear masks while they're eating and drinking so people won't have masks on during most of the wedding.

I wouldn't. 150 is just too high.

Nope. Fall is a bigger flu season in general which normally wouldn’t concern me but I think Covid will be worse then.

Yes I absolutely would feel comfortable attending. People are out and about living life like normal again with the exception of the masks and hand sanitizer. I see people going shopping, vacations, bars, restaurants, malls etc. If they can feel comfortable enough to do all that then they should certainly be able to be comfortable enough to attend a wedding.

I would go if it was less than 100 guests and we were close friends and I was within driving distance. I am a covid bride so I understand how hard this is!!

Depends on how close I was to the person, and guest count, location of reception. We are getting married 9/5/20 and now cutting to 50 people. Tons of room to spread out tables between two floors of the venue, outdoor ceremony. Served meal not buffet.

Absolutely not.

Nope. Not going anywhere for the rest of 2020. I don’t even foresee at this rate, of getting to see my parents across the country at all for the holidays. That is what breaks my heart. I’d rather be sad now than grieving later. I also am higher risk. I work 60/40% at work/from home, and between that exposure and any other additional necessary risks. 6 feet apart dies not eliminate risk, just lessens it. Add a whole lot of people in one spot for more than a few minutes, and it just doesn’t make sense. We have an employee (luckily does not work in our office) who just recently showed symptoms but who would not take it upon herself to call in sick until her supervisor heard her coughing and found out she lost her sense of smell and taste and took her off the schedule and sent her to get tested. She is now unable to leave her home snd feels terribly sick. She knowingly exposed her other coworkers, family, and strangers because she just didn’t care. Now she’s not doing well and isn’t happy. How many other people do this? Too many. I’m staying away. Sorry bee. I’m really worried already for our rescheduled until next summer wedding.

From a guests’ perspective I would at least to wait to RSVP, because my attendance might depend on the number of cases in the area, whether or not bars have been open, etc and our relationship. But I would feel better if the ceremony was outdoors, and being that it isn’t I would most likely decline. If I did attend, I would leave right after dinner to lessen my exposure to others, especially during dancing.
