March 2021 - Splitting up our ceremony and reception!

Maxine, on December 15, 2020 at 6:20 PM Posted in Planning 0 5

We FINALLY got our venue to work with us on saving our 100~ guest reception for a future date! We're still having our ceremony in March 2021 with family and our bridal party only. Anyone else doing the same or having their ceremony around the same time? Or is anyone else having a hard time getting their venue to agree to anything other than your original contract too?

Decided to go with invitations by email and use paper for the reception later on. It doesn't feel good wasting all the save-the-date postcards, but it does feel great finally being able to make decisions.

    I'm glad you figured it out!

    What you're doing seems to be a common option right now.

    Good luck!

    As of right now we are continuing with our big wedding March 27, 2021. We had a minimony in October with about 35guests and our big wedding was supposed to have a little over 100. According to our venue we are allowed 80 so we've cut the guest list down

    That's such incredible news Maxine!! I'm so glad you'll be able to get married and save the big celebration for later! ❤️

    Splitting up the celebrations has been a popular option for lots of couples this year! Check out these forum discussions to connect with some of them: Eloping then having a formal wedding later. What are your thoughts? and Celebrate.

    Nice! yeah our venue originally told us we could have both ceremony and reception in March for about 75 - 80 also but the number could change. We got so tired of the back and forth though Smiley ups Congrats and good luck!
