Question
How is COVID-19 affecting your wedding?
Answer
As we all adapt to an uncertain time with COVID-19, we are monitoring the news carefully. We are prepared to take every precaution necessary to make our wedding safe for our guests. Our wedding is happening as planned and we look forward to celebrating with you all! Right now, CDC guidelines allow for venues to hold events of up to 250 people. If things should change, and the need to postpone arises, we have dates in mind for 2021. While we hope this does not happen, we are well aware of the possibility of it occurring. If we need to postpone, we will contact you directly to inform you of the new date.
