Planning

Yesterday we shared with you a post on "How To Postpone A Wedding". Whilst it wasn't the most fun of articles to share, hopefully, it was a practical one. If you have decided to postpone your wedding, you'll also need to decide how to announce this to your guests. We think the best thing to do in this instance is to call each of your guests personally. Then you can be sure that everyone receives the message and you can check in on how they're doing. Next, you can follow up with some kind of postponed wedding announcement.  You may just be alerting your guests that a new date is yet to be chosen. Or you may want to communicate the new date you've settled with your venue, suppliers, and key wedding party members. If your wedding is 8 weeks away or less that you let your guests know as soon as possible, even if you're yet to arrange the new date. After your phone call, you can follow up with a text, email, DM, an update of your wedding website, social media announcement or a piece of paper through the post. Especially useful if you're sending a new date, this gives your guests something to refer back to should they need to be reminded of the particulars.
