Wedding Advice!

Hello Fellow Brides,

My fiance and I are looking forward to our upcoming nuptials on May 16th of this year. Unfortunately, due to the Coronavirus our whole dream has been turned upside down. I know many brides are in a similar situation and I want to know if any of you have already canceled your May weddings or are you playing it day by day.


Sincerely,

A stressed out bride

    Mine is May 31. We are still playing it by ear at this point--for all we know, things could be starting to get back to normal in the next 2 months (hopefully!) We're having our wedding at a private residence where it won't be an issue of them cancelling on us, and fortunately our out-of-town guests are few and far between. Our main concern is if the state/county will lift their restrictions on gatherings over 50 by then. We are expecting around 70. We already decided we will get married on May 31 no matter what, and we will plan a party/reception later for anyone that wasn't able to make it due to restrictions or concerns about the coronavirus. Sadly, all us May brides can do at this point is wait, hope, and cross our fingers Smiley atonished I'd say give yourself until about a month out before making a decision to postpone, if you're able to wait that long with your vendor contracts, and just go ahead and start thinking about a contingency plan if worse comes to worst.
