Wedding party gifts with old date

Tiffany, on March 30, 2020 at 4:47 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 8

Hi Brides!

We purchased our gifts way before we had any idea that we would be postponing, not all of them have dates on them but some do! Now that we have postponed, some our gifts to our parents, and wedding party have the old date on them, UGH!!

Brides who are in the same situation... are you re-ordering gifts with the correct date or just leaving it because of this crazy situation we are all in?


Disclaimer: I know there are way bigger problems in the world, and I know this is so small! Just want to see what other brides who are in this situation are doingSmiley smile

    Due to a tight budget I don’t think I’d reorder. It’s kind of a unique/fun/cute reminder of everything it took to make the big day happen (much cuter and more fun down the road and many years from now because Lord knows this is stressful as heck.) 😬

    I actually think it's ok not to reorder. that date still holds some significance and so i don't feel like anyone will think anything of it

    I’m feeling the same way!! It would be so expensive to reorder /:


    I also think everyone will be so understanding since this 1. is insane & 2. is already so stressful!

    Absolutely, I can’t imagine anyone not being understanding in this situation.

    So I haven’t ordered any gifts with the date on it, but I am ordering my fiancé’s ring tonight and having it engraved with our planned wedding date. Our goal is to get married that day (it’s in July but the longer this goes on the more nervous I get), even if it’s just us and a few other people, but if for some reason it doesn’t happen on that day it’s still our wedding date and I want to remember that. It adds to your story and commemorates this crazy time we’re all in right now! So I say no, don’t change a thing about the gifts you’ve already purchased!

    Don't worry about asking us your questions, Tiffany! There is a lot going on in the world right now, of course, but we have plenty of space here for your questions and concerns. Around the community, I'm seeing a lot of couples sticking with their dated items and not reordering, whether they are gifts or favors - save the money for something else, everyone else will totally understand
