covid Weddings

That wouldn’t be weird ! I think people would be happy to celebrate your journey with you

View Quoted Comment Thank you! (:

Our plan b is to elope and have a vow renewal and reception around our one year anniversary, definitely not words. I think that’s going to be pretty common throughout 2021 and 2022 honestly.

That would be our Plan C if our Plan B doesn’t work. We’ll elope and have a 1 year anniversary party next year since all of our vendors have been paid.

You should do it. People will understand, most of them probably feel bad for you anyway knowing that you never got to have a bog wedding. We are doing one at our one-year anniversary, but just calling it a party cause we are already married. I dont want to do a ceremony or anything, just a celebration

Definitely not weird. With the current situation I think that’s what more and more couples are doing anyway. Go for it!

That wouldn’t be weird at all! I think everyone would understand & would love to be to finally celebrate your marriage. You could put a spin on it! Like “Part 2- The marriage continues!”

I don't think it would be weird at all! I think everyone would understand, since COVID is forcing pretty much all large events to be postponed anyway. Plus, you'd get to celebrate twice! Once on your original date, and once on your postponed date!

Not at all. You can totally do a party on your one year! It’ll still be a special day just with a big party now (and you can save some money over the year).

That’s our plan, we had our minimony and will have a wedding celebration next year

I think having a 1 year anniversary celebration is a good idea given the circumstances.

Not stupid at all, I think that sounds like a great idea! One year vow renewals are becoming a very popular option.


I also wanted to comment on the fact that I have never met anyone who spells their name the way I do and I just got super excited 😂

View Quoted Comment Haha I had the exact same thought when I read your name! Thanks (:

That wouldn't be weird at all. In fact, I think that'd be awesome! Besides everyone knows that plans have had to change with all this COVID stuff. I'm sure your friends and family would be thrilled to celebrate y'alls anniversary with you!

Definitely do it if that's what you want. It's not weird at all, especially given the circumstances of this year. Everyone will be thrilled to celebrate with you.

I think people will be happy to celebrate with you, and they should be able to understand why you're doing it this way. We've gotten mostly positive feedback on our similar plan. I think it's a bit ridiculous to do a one year vow renewal, but not everyone feels that way. There may even be some people who appreciate seeing you recite your vows because they weren't able to be there the first time!

Thats something my fiance and i are considering.... we have a july 2021 wedding.... but we cant book a venue... we were about to book one before covid hit.

everyone will understand if you wait a year to have the reception....

I am so sorry to hear about you cancelling your original plans but I will tell you that it isn’t weird at all. I originally planned on a big party but just a few days ago we decided to do a MINIMONY on our original date of 10-10-20 because I refuse to do a court style wedding ... although there is nothing wrong with court style wedding it’s just my first marriage was in the courthouse so I wanted this to be how I really want it. With that said I am now doing a little chapel wedding then on 4-3-21 we will do our original themed wedding and yes I will not only be doing a reception but will also do my original planned ceremony program. Now if people think that’s weird well that is on them as far as I am concerned we pay for it so we do what we want on that day 😉

It ia very normal for catholics to throw a party for both the legal wedding and then the catholic one. So you can definitely have both

That's exactly what my FSIL is doing. She and her FH will be getting married with close family only on their original date, to be followed up with a one-year anniversary reception at their original venue. They just announced the postponement of the reception on social media the other day to a generally positive response. Everyone has expressed how excited they are to celebrate next year, and have been totally understanding of what COVID logistics have done to 2020 weddings. I think people should be just as happy to come together next year as they would've been this year - if not more so!
