What to do? What do i do?

I lost my excitement too. Then I mage leave weigh a 5 person micro-wedding that's virtually cancel-proof and I feel much better. Letting go off what it should have been is the hardest part.

I have no idea what my phone just typed. Lol

Made peace with
.... Omg. Lol

I wouldn’t worry about trying to avoid birthdays and anniversaries. Those are going to always come up throughout the year. So trying to work around them isn’t worth the stress.

Have you considered having the original date but having the backup plan of a zoom wedding, so the rules can be followed for whatever restrictions your state has? Ohio is no gatherings over 10 people, so that should allow your officiant, you and your partner, and someone to stand for each of you without putting others at risk. Just an idea.


It will all be fine, hun. Keep your chin up. The wedding is a formality for what you and your partner have already promised in your hearts ::hugs::

We were supposed to get married June 27, 2020. We moved it to July 17, 2021. Our vendor had no June Saturday dates left, and said June 27 probably wouldn't happen. They're still asking for another $750 deposit... I think that's pretty awful of them. Not sure what my next move is in talking with them.

View Quoted Comment Texas is too but where I’m having it there’s hardly any cell signal and no internet connections in middle of a field

First of all - I completely understand. Our Day is June 12, 2020 and has a VERY specific meaning to us & our entire family and we have waited for this date to arrive for 3 years now. The mere thought of not being married ON our date, was devastating to everything and everyone. We are told by all vendors that they are hopeful, but for our sanity - needed a back up plan. So for what it is worth - we resorted to this.....We will still get married ON our date. Even if that day is only the 2 of us & our newly ordained officiant. From there - we have decided to celebrate our "full blown" day either at a later date this summer that works with the venue & our schedule - OR, worst case - hold it on our 1 year anniversary!! Its not uncommon for couples to do this same sort of thing by simple choice - so we figured it was the best solution to an unfortunate situation. Hoping for the best for all of us couples stuck in this same situation!! Prayers for you all to figure out your best fit too. Good luck & hang in there

View Quoted Comment That’s awful. I really hope he can!

I know how you feel. I was supposed to be married on 4/24/20. We are now shooting for 9/18/20. If things aren't right and guests can't be comfortable without wearing a mask. Then we will get married and have a reception next year. Come heck or high water " I'm wearing this dress". Keep your head up and hope all goes well for you

View Quoted Comment I'm glad that I'm not the pinky one saying that I will wear the dress... One way or another!!! Lol!!

I live in Los Angeles, and I starting crying and having major anxiety mid March. My wedding date was June 20, and my venue let me pick an alternative date of August 7. But this whole month, I just haven’t been feeling good about it. I just don’t see how life will be normal at all this year. After talking it out with family and friends and getting brides input from these forums, I’ve finally just decided that I should just postpone until 2021. It’ll make me feel less stressed and worried about if I’ll even be able to have my wedding in August. It’s sucks and I didn’t want to wait another year but I want to be able to have my bridal shower and bachelorette and I just don’t see how that will be possible this summer.

... Only not pinky...
Why does my phone hate me?

View Quoted Comment The dress is already paid for and has been the store to be altered since the second week in March

Mine isn't in alterations yet. Everything closed before I could get it there. Ugh. One way or another that dress is going to be on me if I have to use duck tape! lol!

It’s a tough time, we pushed our wedding out till next year just to be on the safe side. Kinda sucks but rather be safe for us and our family. Hope you find the perfect date😊

Hi Jamie!
It’s going to be ALL GOOD! Just re-evaluate and prioritize your future schedule abs see how you’re able to work around what you have going on . I can relate to how you’re feeling. We made the decision last weekend to postpone our October 24th wedding and since we decided early we had 1 Saturday available in February-May 2021. We reached out to the majority of our vendors and we’ve secured May. It will be a challenge but if you quickly get a date before the later months decide to change theirs you’ll have a better Chan if getting a date early into 2021. Sometimes you just have to dive in and things have away of working out in your favor . I pray this somehow lightened up your spirit. I felt a relief once I postponed the date. The stress of trying to do all the bridal activities in such a sort span of time. Now we have another year to get everything in and I’m rethinking some changes . Making lemonade out of lemons 🍋
