We are only 6 months away from 2021, and we get married June 4, 2021. That gives us plenty of time for things to change or improve, but lately, I've just had no motivation to plan anymore and we have decided to full stop on planning. No more vendor payments, no more vendor research, we've come to a full stop for now. I'm afraid to even plan a large event at all for next year (which could pose health or comfort issues for guests), or spend money toward the venue just to be out that money or feel obligated to postpone to not lose that money if there are still rising cases next year. We've considered now planning for a "Plan B" already, which could be a backyard wedding with 30-40 people instead of our original 150-170 people. Knowing that a Plan B with that many guests in a private backyard would 1. Make people more comfortable, 2. Save us some money, and 3. Most likely will happen vs. us just planning for an uncertain large gathering would make me feel better, but we've made no decisions yet.
I'm wondering if any 2021 brides have started to have second thoughts on the large wedding for next year and might be altering plans. Postponing to 2022 is really out of the question for me, things just feel so uncertain and I'd rather plan something that I know IS certain and safe even next year so I don't have to drag out postponing a wedding forever, but still just sleeping on the idea for now.
