Hi everyone!
Is anyone else having trouble planning with everything still so unknown? My Fiancé and I had to postpone from last July due to the travel restrictions etc. in place and his family living in a different state. We are now planning on July 17, 2021 however I feel so lost planning again as this is technically the third venue change due to various circumstances as well. We are still very excited for our day and to get to spend it with those close to us, however I find myself wanting to decrease our guest list and find a smaller more intimate space just for us and those we are closest too (around 40 people). We already have our photographer, florist, dj, and caterer booked from previously but I have a hard time justifying spending so much on a venue with such a small guest list and the fact that I do not want our day filled with masks. Does anyone else feel this way or has anyone found any smaller more intimate options that are not super expensive? I have considered options along the lines of a waterfront airbnb but haven't been able to find any options that would work. I am looking in the Upstate, NY area for reference. Thank you!
