Hi all, Sept. 12 Bride here. I live in Washington State and we are in a phased reopening from the covid lockdowns. We are currently in Phase 2, and in Phase 3, we can only have 87 people at our venue based on the Governor's orders. Fingers crossed we'll be in Phase 4 by September, but who knows! Our venue unfortunately, has also put us in the tough position of not refunding us if WE cancel, but only if we GET canceled by the Governor mandates. Unfortunately, having a lower capacity than anticipated doesn't count to them as "getting canceled". We are not able to postpone because the venue is going out of business due to lack of revenue. We initially invited about 115 people. We would have to cut about 25 people assuming we don't get into Phase 4 in time. Any thoughts on this? I would be so sad and feel awful to have to eliminate some of our friends/family. Like sorry you didn't make our top 80 friends? I don't know if I have the heart to do that! But then again, if we cancel, we lose our money and have to find a new venue and plan a whole new wedding next year? I'm feeling stuck here. Anyone have any advice? Other Washington Brides?
