1. Limit the number of attendees

It can be hard to choose who to invite, but here is a solution that might help. Write a list of all the people who you have talked with in the last year, if you still have room invite more people! if there are still too many people, you can always include them in your day by live streaming your ceremony. Living streaming is a great option to use during COVID-19.

2. Quarantine for 2 weeks

I can honestly say that asking people to quarantine might be hard to do. So when sending out invitations for your COVID-19 wedding, try to add wording in to ask all attendees to quarantine for 2 weeks. By doing this you are setting the expectations for your wedding day that safety is important to you.

3. COVID-19 testing

Here is a site that might be able to help you in finding locations near you to get tested by going on the CVS website and finding their COVID-19 Testing page.

4. Vaccinations

As vaccinations are on the rise, you can simply ask if someone has been vaccinated before the wedding. Now some people choose not to have the vaccination which is completely understandable and in that case, I would refer you back to the tips above. To find a location near you to get vaccinated, you can go right to the CDC website and click on their VaccineFinder.

5. Require mask at wedding

If you want to avoid all of the conversations around quarantine, vaccinations, and testing. I would just require all attendees to wear a mask. It can be the simplest way to have fun at your weddings without the hassle of having to have difficult conversations.
