Coronavirus Made Me Reconsider a Big Wedding
And to be honest, the only thing that I ever really wanted from my wedding was to marry the person I love
I got engaged in December of last year. It was right before Christmas and long before coronavirus, so we had plenty of time to celebrate with friends and family and bask in the joy of our engagement before we even started to think about wedding planning.
Then, around mid-February to early March, we finally started putting some (very early stage) ideas together— we drafted up our guest list, researched potential venues, and began imagining what we wanted our wedding to look like.
Personally, I’ve never been the type of person that had a grand vision for my wedding day. I never daydreamed of a big fairytale wedding or had the slightest clue as to how I wanted it to look. I never put much thought into it until I actually got engaged.
And to be honest, the only thing that I ever really wanted from my wedding was to marry the person I love.
However, being one of the few people in my close-knit circle of friends who has yet to get married, I was all of a sudden getting wedding advice from everyone around me.
