If your wedding has been postponed, you have my sympathy. I'd like to you help you put joy into the day you were originally going to get married. Let's make your own mini love fest!  

Waking up on the morning of the big day

As you open your eyes on the day that should have been the big day you may get misty eyed. Hug it out, and vow to make this day special despite the circumstances. 

If you have any photos from your first few dates, dig them out and reminisce!  Celebrate you.

I-do o'clock

It's unavoidable, you will be very aware of time on this day.  How about reading (or writing) your vows to each other. Take a selfie when you finish, and share with your friends and family on social media. 

Drinks reception

Have some bubbles and canapés or a little tapas spread of all your favourite nibbles.  Grazing boards are trending and people like the Holy Graze are doing home delivery.  Treat yourselves with your favourite food, who doesn't like eating!

Then how about snuggling on the sofa and watching a romantic film together “Four Weddings” just one more time!

Wedding dinner

After that chilled little interlude. How about putting your “out-out” outfits on and getting all glamed up for this part?

Make place settings, have you got cute names for each other? (Snugglebunny etc!!!) Write them instead. Get the candles lit for total romance!

Have your favourite cake, any cake you like!

Grab all your wedding guests and go on Houseparty app, have a virtual wedding reception! This is how you do a wedding – lockdown style! You can still see all those faces that you will undoubtedly be missing. Get the Christmas lights out if you want to feel like the DJ is really in the room, go as disco as you want!

Perhaps you've spent ages practising your “first dance” you could still show your guests, so all your hard work doesn't go to waste. But equally you could still have an improv dance to “our song” and encourage your friends and family to grab a partner or a pet and have a twirl around the lounge! And if the best man is on screen, he could deliver his finely crafted speech after all! This can still be a celebration.

Just remember that you can get through anything, as long as you're together. When your wedding day does really finally arrive, you 'll remember this one for all the right reasons.  Spending quality time with the one you love.  What could be more perfect.
