Announcement of Re-scheduled Wedding

Warren, on August 18, 2019 at 5:53 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 4

Hi all! This is a bit complicated, so I appreciate you bearing with me!

My fiance and I were supposed to get married last December, but she had some serious health issues, so we canceled about a month out of the wedding. Some guests still came into town since they had purchased flights, so we hosted a very nice engagement party.

Now, my fiance is doing 1000% better and we are getting married on September 15th. The ceremony is going to be super small. My parents, her mom and sister, and that's it. After everything that transpired, that is plenty for us.

So, the question is, should we send an announcement to everyone on the original guest list? We don't want any gifts, so how do we handle that? Basically, we want everyone to know that we are great and super happy! Any thoughts are appreciated!

    You could send marriage announcements, call them, or just announce on social media. It’s really up to you.

    I don't think I would update your entire guest list unless they're still invited. Maybe just post something on social media about how healthy you all are and how happy as well. You could reach out to them if you want just to let them know that she's better but maybe tell them that you're doing a very small ceremony now instead.

    If you send out holiday cards, you could use some pictures from the wedding and do it that way, maybe announcing it on social media in the meantime.

    I would send out an announcement after the ceremony to avoid any confusion. Something like "look what we just did! *insert photo of wedding*" and if you're comfortable you can explain the small ceremony due to personal reasons.
