Nothing about my engagement year went according to plan. A global pandemic, unexpected loss, RSVP disasters, last-minute changes, and miscellaneous misadventures all conspired to keep me from marrying Peter. For over fourteen months, I meticulously planned for the wedding year of my dreams, only to find myself canceling and replanning events every step of the way.
Perhaps you were a COVID bride, or you know one. Maybe you just like a good wedding tale. This book is not just for those brides impacted by the pandemic, but for all newly engaged women planning a wedding and past brides who can find humor in relating to former struggles.
Let The COVID Bride serve as a guide from someone who has been there. This book focuses on advice I wish I had before I got engaged. Wedding planning is stressful enough, so instead of the basic tips and tricks, I am giving you only the golden nuggets of wedding wisdom you can't find on Google.
Global pandemic or not, planning your wedding will come with unique challenges. I hope my story will bring solace that you are not the only bride feeling the heavy burden of managing this event.
