Well, a) taxation isn’t voluntary and b) Beatrice hasn’t done anything wrong
she’s a victim of circumstances and her father’s behaviour, I don’t think she’s an obscene individual at all.I don’t understand your anger, unless it comes from your opinion of the whole British Monarchy.
I can commiserate! My wedding is scheduled for a few days after Beatrice's. Two weeks ago my fiance's grandfather died unexpectedly and then this pandemic hell was unleashed. I always had a bad feeling something terrible would happen right before my wedding, but never in my wildest dreams did I picture this.
Thank you
logically I understand this is not a personal attack and billions of people's lives are being upended from this, but it sure feels like I can't catch a break. Honestly I'm coming to terms with the likelihood of everything being cancelled/postponed; there are much bigger and important problems afoot.What are your plans?Thank you
Right now it’s too soon to do anything. Everyone is busy trying to figure out what to do with the March, April, May weddings before we think about June since CDC guidelines are not released for that period of time yet. So everything is scheduled to go ahead but I’ve put the pause on printing the invitations in case they have to be redone. The uncertainty is the worst part because the longer we wait to reschedule the harder it will be to get a good date but there are other events that require more immediate attention than ours. So it’s really just a waiting game right now. Unfortunately we don’t have the flexibility that Princess Beatrice has with her venue and vendors...
I haven't heard that my vendors won't refund. I think they are trying to be as flexible as they can be given the circumstances. Both my makeup/hair and photographer have reached out to me to make sure I am doing ok and to see if any plans have changed, and the subtext was that they would be amenable to helping out and being as flexible as they possibly can. This is bad for their small businesses as well so I think we will have better luck dealing with compassionate individuals than behemoth predatory insurance companies. But you can bet that if the travel insurance proves to be a problem that I will fight that with every last bit of energy.
No anger, just mere observation.
