Getting married in the Caribbean end of February. Going absolutely nuts with the range of my RSVP emails. Young people “can’t wait, so excited!!!!”, old people “too afraid to travel”. If it were in January I’d prob postpone, but I kinda feel like end of Feb might be ok? And who’s to say if I move it there won’t be another variant. FWIW planning to require rapid tests, the country requires vaccines everywhere, etc but people are either v comfortable or not at all. 😑 no q, just commiserating

So sorry to hear this. I feel like it's just being lucky with timing. Hopefully by end of this month we should have a clearer idea. At least at the end of the day you will get married! Congratulations and hope you are able to enjoy your day!

I had to postpone twice, and with travel for some just 2 hours, and people still didn’t show because of Covid, with testing and vaccination requirements - and I absolutely respected that. You can’t expect people to all be on the same comfort level given the range of Covid. My advice would be to learn to let it go - there’s nothing you can do about it but be understanding, otherwise you’re going to waste precious mental time and energy on something when you could be focusing on your future husband, aka the most important part of your day! Congrats!

This. I was distraught over the people that couldn’t be there (including MANY of my family members who probably were just using Covid-19 as an excuse.) but when the day came I had the best time. With a few exceptions, I really didn’t even realize those people weren’t there because it was so great to be surrounded by all of these amazing people that did show up.

I also got really mad when people kept telling me “it’s the only day in your life where all of your friends and family are in the same place” because it simply is not true in the time of Covid. Know you’re not alone and the day will be so so special.

I found the D.C. Mayors Vaccine Website unhelpful, so was able to easily book an appointment directly through Walgreens. I haven’t been notified that I’m eligible by my D.C. registration yet, despite the fact that I should be. Will I need a code or anything for my appointment, or can I just go? I don’t really get the point of registering on the D.C. website, feels like an extra hoop to jump through.
