We were supposed to have our reception in mid-May (still getting legally married on that day). Am I a fool for thinking that August will be okay to reschedule the big party?

We've been feeling so lost, then the expo thing made us feel bad about not being better informed but we weren't sure where to look to learn more. There's SO MUCH out there that it all just feels overwhelming without any kind of filtering system in place. But we've got an actual plan to work through now, and I really appreciate all of the advice! Something that was really important to me in planning our wedding and also, what matters more, our marriage, was writing our vows together. I'm extremely put off by the "I promise to cherish you, always remember pizza night with you, and not completely fill the spare bedroom with Star Wars funko pops!!!! teheheh" jokey or referency modality - it feels like this serious life step is not being taken seriously by either party, and as part of the heteronormativity of it all we really had to build our own idea of what marriage meant to us from the ground up. So figuring out what we wanted to actually promise to one another, and give the moment the gravity and joy it deserved, was paramount. Offbeat Bride has many, many great sample vows and also how to design a meaningful ceremony. Only 50% of this is logistics-related, but that was what I was missing from my planning experience at first!
