Wow, I love the ambitious and aggressive planning!! I hope you're able to get your fall wedding, but worst comes to worst, you'll get your big celebration in spring :-)

I honestly even haven't paid much attention to my bridal shower! I completely forgot about it up until this morning when a friend texted me she couldn't make it anymore. I've been so consumed with the news and wedding that I forgot about all the other festivities that lead up to it. I hate that this virus is stealing away our joy!! I wish you nothing but happiness and a dreamy bridal shower and wedding I think your wedding date will be a safe date to proceed forward with!

I completely understand your frustration. The not knowing is literally the worst part-- I wish we had a crystal ball that allowed us to peer into what the next few months will look like. But I'm hoping that your Florida wedding goes off without a hitch!! July could be a month where you're safe-- hopefully by May we can get a better idea of what condition the world will be in. I'm thinking of you girl!!

Our wedding is June 20, 2020, and I LOVE our date and I don’t know what to do! Is it ok if I still have the wedding and only close family comes? If my venue is ok with that I would honestly love it because I’m an introvert and I honestly don’t want the 230 people that we invited to be there 😬. Should I be worried and consider rescheduling?

Our wedding is supposed to be May 31 and I am really hoping not to cancel, we are waiting until May to make the final call. Our wedding is supposed to be small (45 ppl) anyway in my fiancee's backyard so I may just go with it anyway and live stream it for those who can't make it. I would have fewer people than move the date. Today was hard though, it was supposed to be my bachelorette party and all of the stress of this caught up to me. Added to that, my engagement ring is stuck at the jeweler because it was getting fixed when they closed, and my dress is stuck with my seamstress because her 88 year-old mother lives with her. I am living by the "I'm fine, it's fine" mantra

View Quoted Comment I’m June 27th and I was thinking we’d be ok but reports are saying June. I am so unsure as to what to do.

View Quoted Comment I really hope everything you imagine that special day comes through! I wish you and your fiancé the best of luck and crossing my fingers for all of us this pass very soon’

I think it depends what state you are on. If you are in California , then you should be okay for August (maybe maybe).
But if you are in NY or Midwest states not sure .

Honestly everything is up in the air now

It's seriously the unknown that makes this much more difficult. I was rolling with June 7th, until our Shelter-at-home got pushed to April 30th and now we have a Disaster order until May 20th. Which from what I read is, still don't come out unless you have to. But if too many people come out then we will go back to shelter-in-place... So with that, my alterations appointment has been cancelled twice. We'll still go on with the wedding but I will have to see what my venue comes up with and all other vendors. I'm honestly about to cancel everything. With no bridal shower and bachelorette party it feels like we will miss the whole "wedding bliss". I'm ready to be married and the Fall and 2021 just don't work for us. We are seasoned and ready to start the two under two club. My father in heaven will come out of his grave and kill me if I have a baby out of wedlock! Good luck! This too shall pass!

Our wedding is August 1, 2020, & as of right now we're going ahead & planning for that day. Other than the photographer, most of our stuff is DIY/friends, so @ least if we did end up needing to change we wouldn't have to deal with vendor issues. Besides the virus, a few weeks ago my MOH was rushed to hospital & diagnosed w/acute luekemia 😭 (&w/the visitor restrictions I haven't been able to even visit with her). While we are praying & hopeful for the best, I honestly don't know if she'll be able/wanting to still be in my wedding. One of the hardest things through all this is not being able to be with my fiance since I can't travel - I live in MN & my fiance & his children live in NC 8months/year (not up here until Mid-June). I did visit in Jan&March, but my planned trip for April (when I was hoping to finally get my special order engagement ring-i just have promise ring rt now) is as of right now not happening☹️). It's SO hard not being w my family (esp the younger kids) going thru this. We've even discussed just getting married now (&have celebration later) so we can at least be together through this..Sorry for getting off topic. To answer yr question we aren't cancelling/postponing yet, although all this sure has me thinking about whats really important & being ready to let go/adjust some of my original ideas..In the end as long as we're married that's the main thing.&besides what a wedding story for generations to come, tied in with a history-book moment.

We just moved ours to Oct 3rd. It was going to be on June 14th but when half our guests are high risk and the other half are all essential workers. Even if things are fine by June we thought it would be less stress and worry if we just postponed it.

We are on May 30 and still holding out hope, haven’t rescheduled yet 😬🙏🏼

We are postponing our May 24th wedding to July 17th. We are crossing our fingers that it is able to happen then... 🙏🏻

View Quoted Comment I never looked at it like that, a Coronabride? It’s crazy out there right now. I’m an October 2020 bride and remaining hopeful. I’m praying for all of you and your loved ones during this time, I hope we can all find comfort during this dark time. 2020 has started off making the world a different place and we have to learn to navigate this new normal. Stay home, stay safe and remain in faith. #Coronabrides2020 stay strong

View Quoted Comment We were May 29th and felt it was way pushing it considering everything. We postponed to October 25th, 2020. I'm definitely worried about this second wave as well. Praying and praying!

My wedding is October 23 but by June 1st I will have to postpone if things aren’t truly better. It is going to take a lot of time for things to be “normal”. I still have planning. I honestly don’t see things being normal again until about December tbh

My fiancé and I were supposed to get married June 20th but a few days ago we decided to postpone it. We have a guest list of around 120 people and we thought it’d be best to postpone and have everyone be able to make it rather than send our invites out and have most potentially say no due to feeling uncomfortable. We had said even if the COVID-19 dies down, we feel it would be too close to everything so now we are working with our pastor and the rest of our parties we hired to reschedule. Unfortunately at this time we do not have a set date because it was so sudden and we have some thinking we need to do.

We went from a May wedding to a June wedding. We pushed it out six weeks so you know I have my fingers crossed 🤞 good luck with your new date.

I’m July 18th, and I wish I could just postpone it already! I feel like the excitement has just been sucked out of it, and I just want to wait until next year. I don’t want to risk having to postpone it again and again and again. I’m working the front lines with this COVID nightmare and I don’t see I’d going away any time soon. But I have so much money already deposited for the venue, I can’t back out. So it’s up to them! They’re in control of everything. So instead of sending invites out now, I sent a “Wedding Update”...looks like a save the date, but has a message from us that we’re still moving forward with the wedding, but refer to our website for the time being. I want the right date on our invites, so I’ll send them out when we know for sure. In the meantime, they can explore the website and make plans. Just taking a day at a time!
