How is everyone feeling now the government have said weddings can go ahead...

How is everyone feeling now the government have said weddings can go ahead next summer? I know I should restart planning and be positive but after rearranging twice already I don't want to get my hopes up.

I think we’ve all been living in survival mode ... I’ve lost my wedding planning mojo 🙈🙈🙈

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Agreed! Don’t want to get excited again in case it can’t happen 🤷🏻‍♀️ this year has taught me that you just never know.

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

I've changed date 3 times hopefully fingers crossed xxx

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

3rd date for us, 11th september keeping everything crossed. Either way we will get married on the 11th cannot rearrange again.

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

That haven't said they can they said they are "hoping they can"

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Our date was 4th August but got changed to 28th April and we are going to do it no matter what x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

We are getting married next Friday. This year has taught me its about the marriage not the wedding. I am marrying the love of my life and want to do it ASAP. I can party anytime

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

I change my date 4 time and got married Friday juts gone with just 15 of us and just a cermoney and cake and a few drinks at home and we had the best day would nt chnage it we are now married and that was all that mattered xx

We actually brought ours forward and get married in just under 3 weeks. I honestly don't think they have a clue what they're doing and taking everything they say with a pinch of salt, but I think they're being overly optimistic at how quickly they can actually roll the vaccines out etc. Life is too short, it just feels more important that we do it, rather than how. We will throw a party when were able. But until then, at least we will be married before New year. It feels like a middle finger up to 2020!

We get married on 9th September 2021. Our guest list is 94! Haven't sent out invites yet but not reducing until about march/April depending on info out x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

I can’t find any info to say weddings can go ahead? Can someone enlighten me what’s changed please x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Our date is July 31st-we are going ahead regardless. Planning for normality and save the dates were sent months ago, but have planned for a smaller day also. Don't let it take the fun out of planning! Plus if it ends up being smaller, you save some pennies and can always arrange something on an anniversary with those who couldn't attend due to the pandemic

Our wedding in May was cancelled but we went ahead with 30 guests in August - literally wouldnt change a moment of our day. It was intimate, emotional and all about our love. We were only allowed a ceremony and outdoor drinks reception then went to a fancy hotel alone and spend our evening with Champagne in the hot tub. It was a perfect day and we’ll have the party once we are allowed!

I've postponed from this Halloween to next one, will be getting married no matter what, if I cant have 50 at the day and 200 at the night do then I've said ill go to the registry office with other half and our parents and thats it if needs be but I will get married next year no matter what

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

This is going to be our third try in ten yrs: first a miscarriage and survival twin pregnancy born 8 wks before the wedding date, then lupus/chemo/brain tumour so; We're finally getting married next October no matter what. We've just made our lists of definites fir smaller sizes and our list for our hopefull ones. Not going to lie, was hard trying to cut it down to thirty people, my bridesmaids took up most of it alone 😅 xoxox

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

I won’t get excited until next April, due to get married in the May but having had to cancel 2 times now all excitement has gone !!! 😞 x x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

We have a successful vaccine. Go ahead .. all gona be fine

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Ours in the 16th of January. We’re going ahead unless lockdown as all the uncertainty of postponing again and not knowing if we will get a date in 2021 so we’re turn a negative into a positive through getting an amount of money back etc. At the end of the day we just want to get married

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Some really negative comments on here...

The news is positive and the only glimmer of hope in a while.

I am positive and looking forward ⭐️ can’t stay like this forever!

We’re summer 2021 x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

We were supposed to get married 8th august 2020 , postponed to 8th may 2021 and we got our fingers crossed it will go ahead with numbers we had from the start. I lost my dad last Xmas who paid for our wedding . So want a day that he wanted us to have and don’t want to postpone again xx

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Eeek Kaya Reynolds they've said next summer will be ok.....roll on August!xx

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

I would love to believe them when they say this but I'm not holding my breath. "3 weeks to flatten the curve" turned into 9 months... I'm trying to stay positive but honestly, all the excitement is gone for me :(

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

We've decided that we're getting married no matter what. After postponing once we are not prepared to do it again. Obviously were hoping that all is well but want to get married non the less x

UKbride Member 9 Dec 2020

Where did they say that?

UKbride Member 10 Dec 2020

Yea I can't restart any plans it will be 4th time replanning any way cancelled twice previously due to being pregnant and due around the time of arranged wedding then arranged again now children are older for this year and had to postpone to next year but I'm just haven't got a buzz about it anymore might even tell my partner to organise it all!!

UKbride Member 10 Dec 2020

I’m April 2021, this will be our fourth attempt to get married and I only need 20 people to be allowed so I’ve got my fingers crossed it can go ahead 🤞

UKbride Member 10 Dec 2020

We rearranged twice and then decided what was important and it was being married! We got married on Saturday and it was the most amazing day ever!! We are planning a big party but we wouldn’t change a thing about our day despite it being so different from what was planned originally. Just remember why you are doing this and everything will fall into place xx

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

I’m getting married January 4th, I booked a small registry and a hotel for a huge celebration straight after.... I’m just taking the registry and then some gorgeous photo in my village forests, for all my family to treasure with them in it. I can’t deal with the “may or may not” I just want to be married.
