How are your wedding venue handling it for rescheduling or canceling? Meaning if you reschedule from a Saturday to a Thursday are you getting some money back? Just one example.

I’ve asked if I could get some of discount for having it on a Friday instead of the scheduled Saturday. She’s checking with her boss. But it is customary for venues to give a discount for Friday or Sunday. Thursday should be even deeper discount IMO.

Rescheduled from a Saturday to the Sunday before a major holiday, and the venue gave me their usual lower Sunday price.

We moved from a Saturday to a Thursday and they wouldn’t lower the per plate cost but after a lot of back and forth we got our minimum lowered by 60.

At first my venue told me we would lose our $1000 deposit if we cancelled and we would lose the deposit if we postponed. We decided not to fully cancel and decided to postpone and the venue ended up working with us and told us our deposit was safe if we postpone.

Hi Jordan,
That's a great question! Unfortunately, I do not know the answer.
According to this article -- Why You Should Totally Consider a Weekday Wedding if You’re Rescheduling Due to COVID-19 -- you *might* score some savings. It doesn't hurt to ask!
Good luck!
