June 2020 brides: freaking out?

Our date is June 12th. FH keeps telling me things will be fine by then... but like everyone else, I've put so much thought and effort into this. I just want our magical day to happen. How are my fellow June brides feeling?

    We just made the decision today to postpone our 6/19 wedding. Our venue is going chronologically to give the couples first dibs at dates. Unfortunately only Sundays are mostly left, but it’s better than nothing I guess. Hoping all our vendors are able to switch over with us. Waiting on them to get back to us

    I’m in VA and the governor’s order cancelled my wedding for June 6th 😭 all my vendors, except for one (there had to be one- the videographer) have made it a lot smoother for my fiancé and I at refunding the money and working with me. We have decided to just go to the justice of the peace at this point. Hoping you all don’t have to go through cancelling your wedding... it definitely sucks!!

    Totally understand the concern! We're postponing our wedding to possibly November this year, if not May of next year. We're devastated and have lost so much money.

    Freaking out as others have said it's not about the party it's about getting married. I am/was going to have a small beach wedding on June 6th. Beach is closed until at least May 15th and the courthouses aren't even open to get a marriage license Smiley sad

    We were June 20th. I got tired of worrying about whether people would come and if they could fully have a good time so about two weeks ago, we went ahead and moved ours to March. It was pretty easy and all vendors were really understanding and easy to work with.

    You should deff postpone. My venue already moved April-June brides and I called my venue to voluntarily move my July 25 2020 wedding to April 03, 2021 that way we weren't forced to move it. I don't want my guests to freak out or not want to come because we all know the virus isn't going to be 100% gone by then. We also have guests coming from overseas who would have had to purchase their flying tickets now but obviously cant. Think about your guests.

    I am thinking about our guests. But I'm also thinking about our financial situation and all the hard work we've put into this. If we postpone right now, we'll lose our deposits. We have to wait until the venue itself cancels. We only have a few people coming from out of state, no overseas guests. I would also like to add, every state is different. Mine is reaching plateau, so we're hoping things will slow down. We're choosing to remain optimistic but preparing for the worst. Good luck to you.

    Our wedding is June 14th. Our venue is giving us the option to reschedule but we are waiting it out to see how the next two weeks go... its such a devastating decision and scary no matter what. Its good to see we arent the only June couples trying to figure out what to do

    June 19, 2020 and we are waiting until late May to make any decisions. This virus is going to be coming and going until they have a vaccine, which will most likely be another 12-18 months. That doesn't make me feel better about postponing to 2021. We are waiting to find out what restrictions Ohio puts into place for gatherings once the cases start to die down. We've already come to realize that people will be afraid to come, but we can't control that. People will be afraid until a vaccine is here. We've also come to realize that because our venue is so popular, we may be having our wedding on a Monday if we do postpone to later this year. It is what it is. My bachelorette party is the first weekend in June, we just postponed my shower to the second weekend in June, and the wedding is supposed to be the third weekend in June. If we do have to postpone to later this year, I just hope that I still fit into my dress that has already started alterations.

    I am not very optimistic about my June 13, 2020 date. I am VERY concerned about it. One of my biggest things is the majority of our guests will be coming from out of town and I just don't think travel will be back to normal by then. I even held off on ordering invites.

    Our wedding is scheduled for June 6th. We're holding off on making any decisions until a month out. Our governor just extended the stay at home order until April 30th so it's looking dicey but I'm just gonna try to forget the stress until May. I'd hate to postpone since we're trying to graduate, get jobs, and move in together this summer too.

    If anything, we'd postpone the reception with maybe a little for-show ceremony. We're getting married June 6th, virus or not--we can't wait any longer! Smiley xd

    We decided to postpone our wedding day. We figured our guests would still be scared for hugs and kisses. What's a wedding without live? So we picked October 10 instead of June 6. I'm glad we did early. Everything is falling into place luckily. Best wishes!

    You'd think they would let us get a license online considering. We postponed ours until October. Enjoy your day!!

    I feel so much like you do. I have older siblings who all are married, friends who are married, I finally feel like it’s my time. And I feel selfish for being so wrapped up in my own feelings. But it’s ok to be gear broken about it. My wedding was June 13. We rescheduled for July 31. We didn’t have to, but I felt more comfortable if we did. We are having 300+ guests and I wanted people to feel safe. Plus with being on lockdown, I couldn’t get my dress fitted, or have the bridesmaids dresses altered. And I really still wanted to have my bachelorette party and the shower before the wedding. Fiancé wasn’t keen on losing a Saturday date for a Friday, but it only took me a few days to reschedule everything. And all my vendors were very understanding. I was also able to get a few discounts and negotiated a few other things that I wanted.

    We decided to postpone! We are 6/14. Our venue gave us the option and we decided to take it. Rescheduled for June 2021. Seems so far away. We are devastated. But all in all our guests that were out of town werent going to be able to travel to the wedding. Our guests that were close by were already concerned about the close proximity of people. Also all hotels in the area of our wedding have put a no stay order through June 18! So that was the straw that broke the camels back. I would say postpone the earlier the better if you can. That way you get better picks of your dates for next year. We are all in this together June brides❤️

    I was going to do the exact same thing! I think we’re in that weird super gray area, esp being at the end of June. I am giving myself til the end of April to make any big decisions and just trying to stay hopeful!

    Im hoping this madness will be gone just as fast as it arrived. My wedding is June 6th but i haven't received any cancellation notices from our outdoor venue. It's a semi-small wedding, no more than 80 ppl. I am losing sleep over it tho... we'll see what happens once April comes to an end. Thankfully we got our license before all the chaos happened. so if anything, we'll postpone and elope in the meantime.
