November 2020 weddings

We finally threw in the towel for our November 2020 wedding. We rescheduled it to November 2021.

We are still going forward. I'm extremely nervous but we can't afford to reschedule or postpone and I don't want to wait any longerto be married. We are impementing social distancing and other covid friendly guidelines. I live in Dallas/Fort Worth.

I'm also in CA and still going forward with my wedding. I'm getting married in October and we also don't want to postpone and wait even longer. Just the stress of waiting for my October wedding is killing me lol. We have a private venue and we will provide hand sanitizers/masks and social distance tables and chairs. We also cut our list to about 25 people.

We are planning a small ceremony for November and plan to do the large reception November 2021. I called our venue yesterday and they said they’re still hosting weddings. I was surprised by that because New Mexico has the strictest COVID guidelines and right now gatherings of more than five people are banned. Our governor did say that if we can get our cases down to under 168 daily, for seven consecutive days, she will open the state more, so I’m hopefully for November.

Hey date twin 👋
So we are still planning on having our wedding in coastal Virginia as planned at this point. We started small to begin with and only invited 60 people total (including the wedding party and plus ones).
Our venue is huge and could easily accommodate many more guests so I don’t see there being an issue with distancing. My fiancé mentioned postponing once after his one groomsman canceled, but he seems to be in more positive spirits and today he told me that he had a new groomsman.
Fingers crossed we don’t go back into lockdown and that gatherings of 50 or more are allowed.

I am ready to go and I am not nervous about the wedding day but just praying I am healthy until then.

View Quoted Comment How big is your wedding ? We had 250 invited and over 120 said they were coming the first time before we had to postpone. We both have big families I don’t think we would be able to get the guest count below 50.

My daughter just had her wedding in CA (Bay Area) at a private venue with 85 guests. The venue did a beautiful job of maintaining Covid protocols (it's been 2 weeks, no one is sick) while still making it the day my daughter had been dreaming of.

We are March pushed to October. We are in Illinois. We have a 120 guest plan and a 50 guest plan.


The 50 guest list is much easier than 120 guest list.
Were gonna try to get this thing over with.

My state is doing pretty poor with handling Covid. Spoke with venue today and they expressed due to current state guidelines, there can be no indoor activities or groups exceeding ten or more. I don’t want to postpone my wedding so more than likely, I will be going to the courthouse or something. Honestly, if I cannot have the wedding ceremony when I initially get married, I don’t want to have one next year for the sake of having a reception. It wouldn’t be the same to me.

We post poned

View Quoted Comment Not big at all which I realize puts me at a huge advantage. Really it's a minimony. My only worry is that everyone is healthy and we can do our day as planned. No lock downs or a sick MOH.

View Quoted Comment I’m glad someone else said this.
When my fiancé suggested that we do the ceremony this year and then postpone the reception the next year (which honestly infuriated me because I had several family members and friends indicate that they would not be able to attend and I never even suggested it but as soon as one of his friends said they couldn’t make it all the sudden it was we might need to postpone), I felt the same exact way. And my thought was, we’re planning on trying to start our family right after the wedding so I don’t want to be at a reception pregnant or after recently having a baby because either way I won’t get to enjoy the reception. And maybe that’s selfish, but at this point with all the stress from this pandemic, if we can’t have it the way we planned this year, then I don’t want to postpone it and postpone our lives.
I’ve made my peace with the fact that some people won’t be able to make it, and we will provide the opportunity to attend virtually but what was supposed to be a very joyous and happy thing has turned into nothing but stress and frustration. I’m ready to get pretty, get married and get on to the next chapter.

Hi!
My wedding is November 13th. I'm getting really nervous and have been post poning planning. Not really because of covid, but just nerves. Our ceremony is outside and the reception is inside. We are planning on implementing as much social distancing as possible and providing face coverings for our guests. Just trying to see how everyone else is handling the stress!

View Quoted Comment Better safe than anything. I know it has to be stressful have to continuously reschedule.

Ours Is In October In VA. We're Still Moving Forward As Planned.

We were originally March 20th. We had a very small ceremony at my brother's house & postponed the reception to November 15th. I'm honestly not sure what we're going to do. I'm planning on speaking with my coordinator next month. By now, I'm sure 2021 is full. I'm already 35 & would like to start a family within the next year or so. Planning a reception in 2022 sounds crazy to me as I have no idea where life will lead me. Having a wedding lingering for another 2 years sounds rediculous to me

We are Nov 7th, still moving forward. We are in CA as well. Our venue is holding outdoor ceremonies/receptions with a limit of 75 people. Our reception is supposed to be indoors which they cannot do at the moment. We invited 180ish, but that was due to family politics (25ish cousins gets your numbers up pretty quick) but I expect a high decline rate as most are in IL and unlikely to make the trip. I think we will land right around 75. My planner has really put my mind at ease since they have been having wedding ceremonies at least as long as they've been allowed and I'm hopeful restrictions might ease a bit more before November. Our plan B is to simply move up the ceremony time and do an outdoor shorter reception - not really sure what the weather will be like near Yosemite in the first week of November to be able to do much outside!

Getting married 11/13/20 in OC/So Cal and still moving forward! My venue has an outdoors section (where cocktail hour was supposed to be) attached to the venue and with CA guidelines the reception will now take place in that area. There will be 6 to a table, each table 6ft apart and can hold up to 180 depending on table shape. Venue also said we can have a dance floor since it is outside. If restrictions change then we will adjust accordingly just happy there's a plan since for 5 months there was no real answer. Not trying to postpone as we don't know what the future holds and weddings might look like this in 2021. All the best for everyone making 2020 work one way or another! ❤
