    We won’t be wearing a mask during the ceremony, the venue hasn’t made it clear if the bridal party has to. Mask are technically mandatory here but no one is enforcing it. I went ahead and got me a mask with lace over lay that matches my dress, FH one that matches his suit, and the bridal party ones that match their dresses/suits. How comfortable my guest are will determine if we actually wear ours or not

    I purchased refillable 😷s, filters and face shields just in case. My face covering has a clear opening for non fogging. Even my FH is willing to participate. During pictures guest can remove everything. That's my wedding favors that will pass out by. My daughter his son are both nurses.

    I haven't decided if I am wearing mine down the aisle (it does match my dress though!!) since it is outside, but I will be wearing it during the reception because it is indoors.

    Thank u. Ours is outdoors since our church currently doesnt hold indoor ceremonies. Our reception will be at a patio of a restaurant- we had to downsize because of Covid. Smiley sad but nevertheless we plan to have an awesome day..

    We got married two weeks ago and did not wear a mask for our ceremony. Our officiant asked if she should wear one and we made that her choice. My plan was to wear a mask but honestly I forgot for most of the reception lol but guest did wear them

    Getting married next week Sunday (mini-mony). FH, officiant, and myself will be maskless. The ceremony will be outdoors at a park, but the park asked that all guests wear a mask during ceremony except us 3. We will have professional photos and photographer gave the OK for people to remove masks for photos after ceremony IF they wish. That will be up to our guests’ discretions following the ceremony.

    Probably not walking down the aisle, but we will discuss with our officiant to see what his comfort level is and if we can maintain distance with or without masks.

    I didn't think I'd wear one down the aisle (outdoor ceremony) but would like guests to do so (since they'll be sitting closer to each other even outside) and the wedding party is free to mask or not. I think most will, and I'd want them to be comfortable.


    For outdoor pictures we'll distance and unmask, and then I'm making up for the rest of the indoor night. We're testing a few days before, but who knows if we'll have back results.
    Everyone just needs to do the best they can to look out for each other. I told guests I don't care if they wear one of those T-Rex suits 😂

    We are getting married 10/31. Right now masks are required where social distancing isn’t possible. I •think• We should be okay, but I have matching masks for the wedding party, and disposable masks for all other guests. We are hoping not to have to wear them during the ceremony and that guests can opt to be unmasked at the tables (we will be seating by household), but have to be masked when moving about the venue.

    We are getting married on October 10th and as of now we are having a ceremony outside at our church and everyone including bride and groom will be in a mask. Getting pictures is important but the safety of myself and my family is more important and as my FH is in a wheelchair and we are unsure how COVID would effect him and my mother is very high risk with a weak immune system so we are not taking any chances. We will be allowed to take pictures him and I inside the church without masks on but I will not make anyone take masks off for pictures if they do not feel comfortable doing so. My pictures don’t mean that much as the health and safety of my guests.
