Would you go?

I would be fine with it. Honestly, even without the unfortunate pandemic, I wouldn’t be offended if I was ever just invited to the reception.

People will attend. I had a cousin get married last year and had a reception February 2020. The event was well attended. People love celebrating love! I am having a private ceremony and will have the reception in June for a larger group.

Due to the situation now I would think everyone would go. That’s the best part is the party after lol

Yes due to the current circumstances...

That's actually a pretty cool idea because by then you'd be celebrating your first year together so it's like a milestone celebration as well!

If I would have gone to their wedding ceremony, if invited, then I would go to any delayed reception, and consider it their wedding, whether they did any vows, or just started by saying we we're married July first, and everyone cheering. Sometimes I would have sent a gift when I heard there would be a wedding. If not I would send it just before the reception. . . . This used to happen when fewer people flew great distances. And still does for couples from distant places, when it does not make sense to move huge numbers of people, when just the couple can go visit and have a reception just months later. Do it!

Yes of course I would still go! I think people will absolutely understand given the circumstances

Yes, I would attend. Sometimes people can't travel to attend the wedding, but enjoy having a different date to celebrate with the new Mr. And Mrs.

My Fiancé and I were already thinking of doing a small ceremony and reception for our July wedding. We were planning on doing something in the fall for everyone else in our lives that not immediate family

Yes. If I was not invited to a wedding during a global pandemic, I would completely understand! I would be excited to be thought of, the following year, to celebrate the couples marriage.

I would go! my friends threw a reception only wedding celebration last year. they had an elopement months prior. no one really thought much of it

I would definitely go, especially given the circumstances!

I would totally go, and a vow renewal sounds like a great idea. Kind of like a mini-wedding.

I would attend!! Do a vow renewal next year!

I would 100% go.

Absolutely I would come, it wouldn't be the couples fault that they had them separate. And I would still want to celebrate their marriage with them. It is more important that everyone is safe and healthy, than whether or not I get to go to a traditional wedding or something a little bit less traditional.

If I were having a local wedding I would make my reception invite only and allow everyone to attend the ceremony, this was before the pandemic. I think I’d be understanding as your guest and be elated to attend your reception.

Yeah my FH and I both said we would go. We were thinking about doing that too actually since our wedding is a small destination one.


If this is to keep your original date I would do that, small ceremony and larger reception the following summer on your one year anniversary.

Absolutely! We considered doing a small destination wedding and just a reception at a later date just so we could truly enjoy our party-so this would be ok even without this pandemic!

I would go as well, most people I feel would understand your reasoning behind it. A lot of my other friend brides are doing this exact thing and their family and friends appreciate it!
