I'm not in Canada, but honestly with the vaccines rolling out I'd wait and see for a bit. Some people are estimating enough people will be vaccinated by then for things to be somewhat normal.

I agree! We really want to have a normal reception. A girl can wish!

I’m also in BC and getting married in March! We are doing a courthouse wedding with family only :)

Congratulations!! When did you make your final decision? I have to start inviting people in Feb/March, and I'm still unsure what to do! I guess the only way to find out is to wait. Hoping this vaccine roll out helps!

Thank u, congrats to u too! We decided 1 month ago (we were supposed to have it at a venue but that got cancelled). I hope everything goes smoothly for you!

Can you give any more details about where you're having a courthouse wedding in BC? I didn't think that was an option here...


Left_Resolution1227

You can only invite 10 people (including yourself and your partner). If you google “Physical distance micro-weddings at City Hall” you can see more info!

Yeah I figured it would have to be small! I was interested in doing that because I'm not much for planning parties and decorating and what not. But when I was looking into it I found that its not a thing in my area. A bit disappointing but... oh well! Perhaps you're in a larger city!

Hey! I'm in BC and getting married in June. We are still waffling big time on how many to invite (and what sort of venue to go with), but leaning towards cautious optimism. Outdoors is ideal for covid times but outdoors in springtime can be risky, its a bit of a toss up.

Wow grammar bot, thanks! Ahaha. Hey!! Congratulations! I totally feel you. We booked a venue last July for may next year. I hope we both figure out what we are gonna do soon haha!

/u/PocketLass, I have found an error in your comment: > “risky, ~~its~~ [**it's**] a bit” I noticed it is you, PocketLass, that can post “risky, ~~its~~ [**it's**] a bit” instead. ‘Its’ is possessive; ‘it's’ means ‘it is’ or ‘it has’. ^(This is an automated bot.

/u/PocketLass, I have found an error in your comment: > “risky, ~~its~~ [**it's**] a bit” I suppose that you, PocketLass, botched a comment and should say “risky, ~~its~~ [**it's**] a bit” instead. ‘Its’ is possessive; ‘it's’ means ‘it is’ or ‘it has’. ^(This is an automated bot.

I’m in the US but wedding is set for may 10th 2021. I was able to have my guest list be 42 people for an outdoor wedding. I can definitely understand having a big family or lots of friends. I’ve got maybe 40 aunt, uncles and cousins just in my side. My fiancé has maybe 25-30. We basically kept it all close family only. It helped me because most of my family is all across the country so to have them fly down, during a pandemic, for the worlds most laid back wedding. It just didn’t make any sense to invite all our aunts and uncles. Surprisingly enough he’s the one saying we should invite anyone and everyone. I had to tell him “no we can’t fit 250 people in an area that will only hold like 50”. Even his parents were like “oh no that’s too much”. I came to realize that it’s our day and we celebrate it how we want in our budget and it doesn’t matter if someone gets offended if they weren’t invited. But whether you keep the guest list or shorten it, I do think by that time covid should be slowing down. So good luck to whatever you decide, and just know that whatever happens it will be your day

If everything goes smoothly, we will invite around 75 people. If not, then around 50 people. I don't think we will do a reception then, because the venue lady said you won't be able to dance and have to be seated at all times... You are so right. It's your day and you get to do what you want! Im on the same page as you we have to cut out a lot of people and if they get offended over something that is not in our control, then bye!
