POSTPONED
My wedding was planned for July 18,2004. But since everything has been twisted around and nothing really accomplished the decision has been made to postpone. I was getting no help from no-one. Even though this is my second marriage, my first was just immediate family, not even my parents were there (they were out of the country). Anyway, my maid of honor is to busy in her own life to do anything and everything has just gone downhill. I haven`t even had a shower yet.
The good news is no invitations have been mailed. I feel really bad, but think it is best to hold off.
Can anyone understand what I am saying? The weding has not been cancelled, just postponed. Is there anything special I need to do other than contact my vendors?
Thanks in advance for the input...

Kay, I`m so sorry to hear that you are feeling this way. Maybe you and your FH should just elope? You could go to a beautiful beach somewhere and just have the ceremony there. If and when you want to have a reception, just plan it like a big party. No need for favours, speeches etc. Just invite your friends for a celebration. The part about you not having a shower though really shouldn`t be a concern. Your wedding was not until July. That`s still 3 months away. I`m getting married in 6 weeks and my shower is not until just a few days before the wedding. Take a step back and remember what your wedding means to you. Is it about the "stuff" or is it about starting a new life with your FH?
Good luck to you.

It won`t be that difficult if you haven`t sent out invitations yet. Just contact the vendors and let them know what the new wedding date will be (if you have set one). You may have to do a lot of the work yourself, because sometimes people just aren`t helpful enough. It takes being highly organized, making lists and notes, and checking off things which have already been done. I worked from a list, which made it easier.
