The spread of the corona virus & worldwide measures to contain it has escalated so quickly in the past week that your head is probably spinning.  Between stockpiling groceries & supplies and making remote arrangements at work, engaged couples like you are also hit devastatingly hard with wedding day decisions to make about events scheduled in March, April, and likely into May.

You’re likely feeling confused, scared, and stressed out with what to do next, and that is completely normal.  

Today we’re joined by Meg Keene, editor of A Practical Wedding, which also happens to be the largest independently held wedding publication in the English language(!!!).  If you haven’t already, I would highly recommend putting A Practical Wedding on your short list of trusted wedding resources. 

I’m going to share our conversation from Tuesday, March 17th in just a moment, but want to add a few quick notes before we dive in:

First, this is a really frightening and uncertain time, and if you’re completely freaking out - please know that that’s totally normal, and you have my support in addition to the wonderful industry experts that I’ll be sharing with you in the coming weeks & months.  

Second, if your wedding is scheduled for March, April, or May, you will need to make some decisions about postponing or altering your celebration - please refer to the full article we discussed here to help you navigate through this difficult and stressful time.

Third, if your wedding is scheduled for later this summer or fall, please do not panic.  My personal recommendation is to sit tight until the end of March before making any big dramatic decisions about a wedding date in June or beyond.

And lastly, things are happening really quickly with respect to containment measures - please rely on trusted news sources for your information, including your state & municipal officials for details specific to your location.
