Hi everyone, planning to have our 150+ person wedding in New Hope, PA September 25th. We got engaged November 2019, and have always planned to get married on this date (so were super lucky to not have to move from 2020). As September inches closer, my anxiety is through the roof on how to proceed with planning.
Our venue can hold 200 max, and is an indoor venue. Right now, PA is still at 15% capacity of indoor venues with lots of precautions. With our guest list of 150-175, this feels like it will be risky. We both have large families and bridal parties, so cutting the guest list becomes increasing challenging. Our venue really cannot commit to what September will look like right now, which is fair.
Any advice on how to navigate? Does the above make it feel like we should push? I am driving myself nuts these days. We really hate the idea of not doing a wedding the way we want, or having to settle. We are fine doing an intimate ceremony and having a large reception in 2022 as a celebration.
