Coping with covid changing our plans

I think it’s important to remember that almost no one has things go as planned on their wedding day. Covid certainly brought that to another level, but I think it could maybe even help to read some old forums (pre covid) and read all of the drama people have dealt with when it comes to their wedding. I know that sounds petty, but it’s the reality! You *hopefully* have had the worst hiccups when it comes to your wedding. While you won’t have all of the guests you initially imagined, the few who will be there are that much more excited to be celebrating with you. You’ve been through wedding planning hell. It should be over now! When most people have to stress about all of the “what ifs” leading up to the day - you already have. Let your hair down and enjoy! — from a covid bride who had 15 guests but a lovely lovely celebration with them.

I really feel for you. I would be sad if some of my most important people wouldn’t be able to attend my wedding. My husbands BEST BEST friend of all time could not attend because he just had a baby 4 days prior. He was devastated but we had to move on and remember that he does love us and he wanted to be there but circumstances couldn’t let it happen. (If we were able to have our wedding LAST June 2020, he would have been there!) My husband ended up having a great time without him though, and I hope you will too without some of your family there. It definitely stinks tho- thinking of you

All you can do is focus on the positive and think about everything you do have to look forward to!!

My little sister got married last weekend and while there were still obviously some covid precautions and restrictions - it was still an incredible celebration! It had been SO long since all of us had gotten together and celebrated that it felt extra joyful and special. ❤️
