Wedding Planning for 2021 during Covid-19

Same here. Just got engaged in Jan. Took a 2 week vacay to Asia. Once I returned I was so wrapped up in work. No everything has slowed down. Really want to pick a venue so i can pick a date but cant because of the virus

View Quoted Comment Definitely can relate to the venue issue! This was the month I was going to travel down to New Orleans to view the venue.. online pics are good but gotta be there in person. I have a feeling that we are up against delayed weddings and chances of losing our chosen dates. It’s hard trying to stay positive but can’t help to think that everything will be rushed (venue, dress, design, and etc)

Feel the same day. Picking my date after the venue so extra pressure

Hi LC,

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this, and I know the uncertainty is super stressful! You are definitely not alone.

We recently published an article about How to Get the Wedding Dress Shopping Experience From Home During COVID-19 . If you've already contacted all of your local bridal salons and none can guarantee delivery by the time you need your dress, then I recommend expanding your search area.

Online/virtual shopping could be another great way to explore options right now. Once you have your measurements, you may be able to order a dress to try at home (after checking the return policy, of course). We have found that many vendors are more than willing to be flexible during this unprecedented time.

I wish you the best of luck. My fingers are crossed for you!
