Hi Ladies,
If your a corona bride like myself then you can share my frustration, exhaustion and general rollercoaster of emotions! My fiancé and I were originally scheduled to wed May 16, 2020 and had to cancel in March 2 hours before I jumped on a flight for my bachelorette. One of my bridesmaids was sick the entire time and thought she had covid but that's another story! We rescheduled for May 2021 and as soon as the plane touched down the depression/fear/panic set in. I'm a nurse so I had to work through the covid spring and continue to work with limited resources/covid patients. That being said, I don't see how restrictions could possibly be lifted to allow our original wedding of 150 guests to go on as scheduled May of 2021. My wedding planner who has been a complete ANGEL recommended we cancel and reschedule for the following spring when more dates are available at our venue and it may be safer. All of this being said, I don't want to do a mini ceremony with just family bc I'm worried when the real date (hopefully) comes along in 2022 my family will be just "over it" and it won't have that special sentimental moment that every girl dreams of. I want to have the special first look moments with my parents and fiancé and I feel like it won't be the same if we get married just because. I'm the second daughter to get married in my family, I've always been a tom-boy type but my whole life I've looked forward to having this glam gorgeous wedding day and looking beautiful in a stunning dress. I'm also so sick of people who are already married telling me what they would've done if they were in my situation or telling me stuff like- oh just elope, when you have kids you'll feel like such an idiot for thinking your wedding day was important! As much as I don't like being the center of attention, I want to have one day of my life where I am the center of attention and have all eyes on me. I'm an incredibly selfless person and never put myself first so this day was something I was really looking forward to. I don't know what to do at this point. My balloon is just deflated. We officially cancelled AGAIN this afternoon and I just feel so bummed out and exhausted. Any advice or anyone just want to commiserate?
