Wedding postponement wording.

Private User, on June 2, 2014 at 8:32 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 11

My FH and I have decided we are not ready for our wedding which is 2 months away. We have decided to postpone it one year. I want to send a note to those who have received STD's explaining we are postponing but I don't want a formal sad postponement. I want something cute cleaver and funny. Any suggestions...

    About our wedding, we're not in the clear. It's really too bad we'll have to wait 'til next year.....

    How long ago did you send save the dates? Did you also send formal invitations?

    I am thinking if you only sent save the dates and not formal invites then I think you are in the clear to not send anything? I could be wrong though.

    I think it is best you send something - otherwise people might be declining other things to save your date unnecessarily. I like Wendy's suggestion of an "unsave the date".

    I like the first posters saying and the "unsave the date" thing. They both are pretty funny.

    Jesus... 2 months away and you're postponing for a year? I can't even fathom what that's costing you guys.

    I guess the only choice you really have is an un-save the date, and making an announcement to family/friends via Facebook, on your wedding website, etc.

    Are you sure this is something you guys both want to do? Once you UNsave the date, and go through all of that, you can't put the wedding "back on."

    I'm not saying your reasons aren't worthwhile, but are you both sure that whatever it is that is urging you to postpone isn't related to nerves, cold feet, a petty argument, etc.?

    I wish you the best of luck. I'm sure it's a complicated situation.

    Definitely send unsave the dates. And also, I second everything rusticbride said :-)

    You for sure need to send an un-save the date. Have any of your guests already made travel arrangements?

    I have seen this topic before on here. And someone else is putting "wedding under construction." which I think is pretty cute. Smiley smile
