Putting your wedding on hold is something you may decide for a number of reasons, some personal, some because of timing, and some because youโre feeling a whole lot of unusual stress and anxiety. But no matter what your reason, once youโve made the difficult decision of pausing the nuptials, youโve got to let wedding guests know.
To make that part the least awkward as possible, here are five suggested ways of handling the Wedding Postponement Announcement
1. Ask a Friend to Take Charge
If you feel strange or even embarrassed letting your guests know that your wedding is being put on hold, ask a close friend or family member to help you out by spreading the word. Give them direction on what youโd like them to say and even what the alternate wedding date is, if youโve already gone ahead and found one.
2. Go with Email
Picking up the phone may feel like a punch in the gut during this time, but sending something in the mail may cost you too much extra money (or you need it sent out ASAP). Instead, go with an easy option and send out an update to your guests through email.
3. Stay Vague
No matter what the reason was that you decided to postpone the wedding, you can stay vague and just let your guests know that as of right now, your wedding has been put on hold. Youโll be in touch with an update soon! Take any and all emotion and explanation out of it, if you donโt want to over share.
4. Act Fast
Alerting your guests about this change may be the last thing youโre in the mood to do at this time, but the longer you wait, the longer you risk some of them making travel arrangements thatโll be costly for them to change.
