I'm in a major city in California and my wedding is a month away. Each day I'm monitoring the news. I'm wondering what happens if our city has to get locked down like in other countries and we'd have to cancel or postpone the wedding? Is there advice for last minute wedding cancellation? Is it time to start re-reading all the contracts?
If it's a state of emergency and no one can go out, I hope vendors would understand as well. Even if we can postpone the wedding, I think we'll lose 75% or more of our cost. Weddings in California can easily go above $40K and I don't think we'll have the budget to hold another one. If I do hold one later, we'll have to make it super budget friendly like a simple dinner for $10K or something. It just sucks because I had a vision for my ideal wedding.
To make matters more complicated, we're moving across the country in a few months. If we postpone the date in the same venue, we'd have to fly back to California just for the wedding. If we move it to another location, then we'll lose the money.
