Reception a year after Wedding - Looking for advice/thoughts!

Kaylee, on April 25, 2021 at 6:44 PM Posted in Planning 0 3

Hello All!

Thanks to COVID we changed our wedding plans. We got married on September 12, 2020 with just our close friends and family, and this year on September 11, 2021 we are doing a reception with our full original guest list.


So...what I am looking for is your thoughts/ideas/invitation language/advice/are you doing or going to something likes this?

Thanks!

    My year after reception is this June 🤗
    Our language was ‘join us in celebrating the marriage of...’
    Our plan was to be low-key from the beginning- but I’m basically doing everything that I would have done a year ago (wear the dress, cut the cake, etc). We’re going to be playing the video of the wedding too, though I’m expecting only our mother’s to watch lol. That being said, the planning was basically the same: plan a budget, stick to budget, communicate (with spouse and guests). We did opt to cut out our registry because we got a lot of gifts still last year at the shower and around the time of our wedding and it seemed appropriate to say ‘your presence is your present’. But we had our shower before covid and not many brides did. Be sure to take breaks from planning too, because it’s going to be exhausting. And did I say communicate with your spouse? Lol

    We are finally having our wedding a year after, on June 27th. On the invitations, I worded it as our wedding “celebration.” Although we are already married legally, we are treating it just like the wedding and doing everything we had dreamed of! Your day will be absolutely perfect!!

    Hi Kaylee! Most couples are calling this a "celebration of marriage", but they're planning everything from a casual celebration to a full-on second wedding!

    Here are a few discussions where I've seen other couples share what they're doing for their postponed reception:

    Covid second wedding celebration/vow renewal

    2021 Reception Only

    Postpone Reception//sequel Wedding Questions

    If you postponed the celebration, but still got married...

    The Big Wedding -what to call it?
