I'm totally freaking out right now, because it seems like our February wedding won't be allowed to happen after all due to our local government's COVID restrictions (we live in southern Germany and the numbers are skyrocketing at the moment). Other option is, it may be allowed, but for a maximum of 50 guests and only if they are vaccinated and tested negatively on the day. We've decided that we're still getting married on that day, but it seems like we won't be able to throw the huge party we've been planning... And if we have to cancel and somehow manage to wiggle out of our venue contract, we might not want to keep postponing the party indefinitely.
So I'm preparing myself mentally for both versions (total cancellation or a maximum of 50 guests from over 100) and I really don't know how to explain it to our guests (about 60% are coming from abroad and we need to inform them asap). My question for any COVID brides who have been through the same: do you have any advice about how to inform our guests? Maybe an example of the messages you've sent when you had to cancel or postpone? Is there anything you would advise us to do or not to do?
