August date

Hi Nicolle,

I know it's tough to make a decision because there are so many unknowns. The general consensus for August is that couples should continue to monitor the situation and try to make a decision by the end of May. It's basically a waiting game right now. You're certainly not alone in your concern. Check out these discussions with other August couples:

Some couples are adjusting their plans to get married (one way or another) on their original dates. Options include ceremony now/reception later, elopement now/full wedding later, micro weddings and more. Check out these posts:
