My weddings going to be cancelled by a rat virus isn’t it!

[EyUpNowThenLass]

We tried to get married in May 2020 and after trying for 18 months gave up. Lost loads of money in deposits. We are now finally in the position to be able to afford to get married again and we’re just about to book it for October.

It feels like history is repeating itself with recent news, and the world wants me to be a spinster. Is it going to happen again? I just don’t want to get my hopes up yet again for the same thing to happen!

Experts have said it's not the same. Even if it was, I doubt they'd have lockdowns etc like Covid, not for another couple of generations anyway.

I swear most of these threads are made up.

Your post just reminded me of the fear during Covid, that cats might spread coronavirus. It must have been quite a thing, because I vividly remember planning how we might save the cat, if the government decreed that they should all be destroyed!

Why are you wasting all this money repeatedly on a grand party?

Erm.... 😬

It could be an omen - I wish I'd had a load of 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 to warn me off 😂😂

Fingers crossed & Good Luck 😘

Yes it will as its God's and the universes will that you never marry and are destined to be spinstered for the rest of your life ..
No wedding cake for you.😁🤣

As long as it’s a local wedding, I wouldn’t worry.

If it’s a destination wedding, I would be more worried about global politics, economics, and shortages making travel difficult.

this is a person to person strain, but they are aware and tracking. Worrying about it at this point seems premature. Cruise ships just make for dramatic headlines.

If you're giving up that easily perhaps you're not really too bothered about the wedding after all. Read a quality newspaper and you'll find this isn't going to be a repeat of Covid. Just avoid any rat-infested venues and you'll be fine.

This.

A Nuclear attack maybe, but not rat virus

No.
If you're planning an overseas Do you are more likely to be impacted by a shortage of jet fuel though.
Just plan for a wedding in the UK and have a great day

Get over yourself ffs.
And who on earth even uses words like 'spinster' any more??

Yes...the fates are against you.
Far better to finish the whole thing and prepare for a life of spinsterhood and cats.😏

More likely to be impacted by fuel costs if you're flying anywhere

Why on earth would it be?

🤣🤣👍

Cat got your tongue OP?

Any chance of a response?

Nah, it's the rat that's got it.

Really? People are dying and you are moaning about your wedding? If it's that important just go have a cheap wedding and a Macdonalds after.

Oh, honestly!!! 🤦‍♀️
Nobody knows what tomorrow may bring - that’s part of the miracle of being on this strange spring orb that we call home!
If the marital status is the issue just do a registry office job - if not carry on planning for your wedding!

Rat disease on a V expensive cruise? Personally I’m more concerned by the number of twonks who have voted for Reform … that genuinely gives me zombie apocalypse/ end of the world vibes!!!!!

Are you intending to get married in some squalid rat-infested venue?

I can’t believe you’ve taken the time to create this post. Look around you and realise you are being very dramatic.

My take on this aside Have a lovely wedding!

You can still get married,... just keep it simple and keep your money in savings for when things calm down. IF there is any type of pandemic in October, you can get married, but wait out all the potential hysteria, then go on a belated honeymoon later... and postpone wedding activities for after things calm down.

I personally would keep it extremely simple., with only immediate family on a beach, or woodland., and use all the money you would have saved for your home and a financial safety net for the both of you.

Was about to say the same thing!
