Many couples had to postpone their weddings or downsize and reimagine their dream day. Wedding venues were governed by restrictions that limited group sizes to reduce spread of the coronavirus while wedding vendors could no longer meet obligations. Many of us thought that by 2021, things would be well on their way back to normal. While the vaccines have helped significantly, a slow roll-out and widespread mistrust has led to a slower recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As such, many couples \u2014 and newly engaged love birds \u2014 are still dealing with planning a wedding during COVID. As the pandemic continues, wedding planning comes with even more questions. Is it safe to travel for your honeymoon? Should you have a big wedding and require proof of vaccination or should you keep it small? To help you answer those questions and more, we\u2019ve created this guide to planning a wedding during COVID. We\u2019ll share top tips and highlight things you may want to consider during the planning process.<\/span><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><b>Wedding Day Options: Rescheduling, Minimonies, and More<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10962\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/couple-holding-hands.jpeg\" alt=\"Planning a wedding during COVID: couple wearing masks and holding hands while walking on the beach\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/couple-holding-hands.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/couple-holding-hands-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/couple-holding-hands-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the first things that couples face when planning a wedding during COVID is whether to host or reschedule the event. The right decision is different for each couple. If you don\u2019t mind having a smaller wedding and just want to get married, downsizing and doing it on the originally planned date may be the best choice for you. If it\u2019s your dream to have all of your loved ones and family members there, you may want to postpone or consider a virtual event. Below are different options for your big day.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Postpone to a Later Date<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many engaged couples choose to postpone the wedding to a future date. In some cases, this decision may be made for the couple \u2014 for example, when venues or vendors can\u2019t meet their contractual obligations due to restrictions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By postponing to a later date, you can keep your guest count the same and still host the wedding day of your dreams \u2014 just a year or two later. If you choose to postpone it to a later date, it\u2019s important to stay organized. Work with your wedding planner or contact all of your vendors and venues to ensure everyone is on the same page with the new changes. If you can consolidate vendors \u2014 say, work with a hairstylist who\u2019s also a makeup artist \u2014 you can reduce the number of people you need to contact going forward in case any additional changes or delays occur.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll also want to make sure wedding guests are aware of the date change. An easy way to do this is to send digital <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/wedding-invitations\">wedding invitations<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can send out new invites or date change announcements with the click of a few buttons. Plus, you don\u2019t have to risk going out to the post office or having your invites get delayed due to supply chain and employment issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to check out our <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/postponing-a-wedding\">guide to postponing a wedding<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for more details, including tips on wedding insurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Get Married Now and Celebrate Later<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For couples that just can\u2019t or don\u2019t want to wait, consider tying the knot now and having the wedding ceremony and celebration later. With this option, you can have the best of both worlds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To pull this off, you\u2019ll need to notify guests as soon as possible that you\u2019re having your nuptials now with a celebration to come at a later date. You can choose a date now or wait a few months to see how things play out. Just keep in mind that you\u2019ll likely need to pick a date if you\u2019re working with different vendors. Check your contracts and reach out to your contact person to determine the cancellation and postponement processes you need to follow.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Have a Micro Wedding<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also called a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/minimony\">minimony<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, this intimate wedding style enables you to have a wedding on your planned date with fewer guests. With a small wedding, you can celebrate your love story and have your special day without needing to postpone. This type of <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/intimate-wedding\">intimate wedding<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is perfect for couples who want to share their day with a tight-knit group of friends and family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you had a larger wedding planned, you can switch to a <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/micro-wedding\">micro wedding<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or simply plan a small wedding from the beginning if you\u2019re newly engaged. To downsize a larger wedding, it\u2019s polite to send guests an update if you can longer accommodate them on your big day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Have a Big Wedding<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As more and more people get vaccinated, it\u2019s possible to have a larger wedding with a few restrictions and safety measures. This option is ideal for couples who want to host their dream day, keep the guest list as is, and make just a few adjustments to decor and attire to pull it off.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For starters, you can host a big wedding and only have vaccinated guests in attendance. Our guide on how to communicate <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/covid-wedding-vaccination-requirements\">vaccination requirements in your wedding invitation<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will help.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also adhere to social distancing guidelines by spacing out the seating and requiring guests to wear masks. To make it fun, ask guests to wear face masks that fit the dress code \u2014 think sparkles and formal colors for a fancy affair. You can even order custom <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/market\/wedding_sanitizer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>wedding hand sanitizer<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from sites like Etsy or display it in a beautiful way on your wedding day. Order custom sanitizer labels from sites like <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bottleyourbrand.com\/blog\/spread-love-not-germs-five-sayings-for-wedding-hand-gel-favors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bottle Your Brand<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and give the sanitizer as a wedding favor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To host a large wedding and keep yourself and your loved ones safe, it\u2019s a good idea to check the <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CDC coronavirus information page<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Here, you\u2019ll find details on how to safely host gatherings and what to keep in mind if you decide to have a larger event. You\u2019ll also want to check if there are any mandates or restrictions in your area that you\u2019ll need to adhere to.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Have an Elopement<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t want to deal with a big wedding, rescheduling, or the hassle? Consider eloping! It\u2019s an exciting option that feels spontaneous, plus you won\u2019t have to hassle with vendors and planning a wedding during COVID. With fun <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/elopement-ideas\">elopement ideas<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> including local parks and scenic forests, there are plenty of beautiful places to get married stress-free.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you elope, reach out to your city clerk to obtain a marriage license and find out if there\u2019s a waiting period and if you need a witness. You&#8217;ll also want to think about having a photographer or videographer to capture the special day. After the special day, you can easily email <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/marriage-announcements\">marriage announcements<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to loved ones.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Host a Virtual Wedding<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another option for couples that want to have their big day without changing the original wedding date is to host a virtual wedding. This also means you don\u2019t have to edit the wedding guest list. You can use tools like Zoom or invest in a professional platform to ensure seamless streaming on the big day. Use our guide on <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/how-to-host-a-virtual-event\">how to host a virtual event<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to learn some top tips on planning your celebration even if you\u2019re not together in person.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Planning a Wedding During COVID: Honeymoon Edition<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wedding planning during COVID isn&#8217;t just about the wedding day. You\u2019ll also want to consider what to do for your honeymoon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re intent on taking a trip, there are several options. You can keep it local by booking a staycation at one of the resorts or boutique hotels in your area. This way, you don\u2019t have to worry about taking COVID-19 tests or hassling with entry requirements. You can also take a road trip and enjoy the sights without having to deal with airports. Look for hotels that list cleaning procedures for COVID-19 to stay safe while traveling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the pandemic progresses, many travel restrictions are being lifted in exchange for safe practices and vaccinations. If you\u2019re choosing an international destination, stay up-to-date on entry requirements as these change often. These include vaccinations, testing requirements, and any quarantine rules. It\u2019s also a great idea to only book stays and activities that are fully refundable. Alternatively, you can purchase insurance that covers COVID-19 changes or a policy that allows you to cancel for any reason.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re traveling out of state or internationally, think about having a backup plan. Since the pandemic is constantly evolving, your backup plan can help save you time and stress if you need to switch locations or change up the dates.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Have Your Dream Wedding Regardless of Circumstances<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10964\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/happy-bride-and-groom.jpeg\" alt=\"Happy bride and groom wearing masks on their wedding day\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/happy-bride-and-groom.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/happy-bride-and-groom-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/happy-bride-and-groom-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of us are still hesitant or unsure about how to plan weddings and ceremonies during the pandemic.
