Changing Date Anxiety

I’m having a lot of anxiety regarding my wedding date. It’s been a dream of mine to get married during the fall but we had to choose a June wedding due to some medical issues I have gone through and possible difficulty getting pregnant. So we gave ourselves an extra 3 months to be married sooner before beginning our family.

I’m feeling anxious because I really do want a fall wedding and I only plan on getting married once. I’m anxious because we have already signed contracts for the venue and entertainment company that’s providing a few vendors as a package. I’ve checked the contracts and only found cancellation clauses nothing about rescheduling. I want to change the date because I don’t want to give up on my dream even though it is one day of my life. Can someone give me clarity or share their experiences with something similar? Any advice to help with this?
Thank you so much in advance

Honestly I’d reach out and see about rescheduling. I know all of my vendors give me something like 30/60 days to reschedule. I’m having a winter wedding and go back and forth on if I want that or summer, but realized I’m happiest in the winter in the snow so we went with December. Good luck and I hope you’re able to reschedule!!

Reach out to your vendors! Many of them are understanding and flexible when it comes to rescheduling. We changed our date twice and every one of our vendors (except our cake baker) were willing to change dates without any penalties.

It doesn't hurt to ask! You can reach out to the venue and see if they have any fall dates available and are open to rescheduling you. Alternatively, I would maybe do some self reflection on why a fal wedding is your dream. What about it can't you get out of your head? And weighing that against the reasons you chose to have it in June. If, after thinking on it, you find that the fall date is more important, then go for it. But it also sounds like you chose an earlier date for some pretty significant reasons.

I understand the anxiety about rescheduling. I was set to get married in 2020 and postponed it to 2021. This really messed up family planning because I didn’t want to be pregnant for my wedding, etc. it was frustrating and still is! However, I don’t regret having our wedding when we did and I know things will happen when they happen. I’m not sure of your medical issues but I would consider keeping the June wedding. I would want you to be able to fully enjoy the wedding experience before moving on to the creating a family experience.

Is there some way you can incorporate fall elements into a June wedding? There are absolutely no rules saying you can’t have autumnal colors in a June wedding.

These are just my thoughts and opinions. I hope you come to terms with what you want to do and best of luck

If you cannot reschedule I completely agree with Bird, I d plan my dream fall wedding in June, who cares people do Christmas in July why not a fall day in June. Use what ever colors you want, have candy apples, lots of pie, white pumpkins, smores, whatever will make you happy. The only thing you can't recreate is fall weather and leaves changing but you know what we never have control over that there have been fall seasons where the leaves change really late or early and the weather is never a given you can have a random 90 temp in October or an unexpected snowfall. Have fun with it and the most important thing is at the end of the day you ll be married to your love . Good luck!

Teach out to your vendors and ask. The worst they can say is no or that they already have that day booked for another wedding. The sooner you go in to try to do the switch the better it will be.
