Hello everyone!
I am sure most of you are extremely stressed out as I have been either if you have had to cancel, postpone, or kill off some dreams of your 'big day'. I am praying for all of us.
Is anyone else in here a Massachusetts bride? My wedding falls under PHASE 3 here and we are unsure if we should chug along or postpone. Right now they're saying NO DANCE FLOORS, NO BAR SERVICE (waiters or waitresses only), MASKS REQUIRED at all times unless seated, 6 TO A TABLE, NO PHOTOBOOTHS (I REALLY wanted a photo booth) and we are completely unsure of how many people we will be able to have in our inclosed/unenclosed tent.
Is a wedding a fun wedding with no dancing? My vendor says we can't even wiggle, it's full-on footloose status... And everyone will be required to wear a mask in Septemeber which can be really REALLY hot.
They told me I don't have to wear a mask walking down the aisle, for pictures, and I can have a small dance floor very tiny for a father/daughter and first dance.
I am so unsure of what to do. I am an emotional wreck. I really don't want to postpone because we had horrible for new date options for next year. We had to choose a Friday... August 13th (cursed date - we were considering hiring someone to wear a Jason mask if we have to switch...) at the same time which would be 3:30pm meaning everyone would have to take a day off of work.
Is it even worth it to have a DJ? Are guests going to be extremely uncomfortable in a mask? We've put in so much money I am not even sure what to do. Are you accepting that you are going to have guests being taken pictures of with masks on for your wedding album?
We aren't even being offered a discount so we're paying close to 25k for a wedding and are getting ripped off because I can't have a 'normal' wedding but yet I am feeling as if someone has died having to think about postponing.
Please share any stories, advice, or concerns for your own wedding I am hoping to gain some insight from other brides.
All my love and prayers,
Bianca
