Has anyone thought about or actually followed through with postponing your wedding? My fiance and I ran into some financial issues (one of which being that his mother is no longer paying for about $2000 worth of expenses) and we aren't sure that we will have it together in time. The wedding is 2 months away. I know it might be silly to worry about what people think but I do. I don't want people to think we are having problems with each other. It just feels like that would ruin the day. I have NOT sent the formal invites out yet-just the save the dates. If we decide to postpone, what is appropriate to communicate this? I was thinking about sending a post card similar to the STD that says, "Due to financial set backs the date has been reschedule. Please save ____ as the new date. Formal invitation to follow"
The only other option would be to cut down the guest list which I can't see a polite way to handle that either. I've heard of people sending STD and then not sending some of those people an actual invitation later. I find that rude and confusing though. If you or anyone you know has experience with this, please share! Thank you so much!
EDIT: I posted this on the Etiquette Board also. I wasn't sure where to put it. Thanks again.
