Cupid’s Advice:
Quarantine has put a halt to a lot of weddings. Whether you pushed back your ceremony or decided to get married without the reception (for now), you’ll still want to do something special. Whether you want to celebrate your actual marriage or your would-have-been wedding date, Cupid has some advice for you:
1. Virtual reception: While a Zoom-sponsored wedding reception may not have been your first choice, being able to talk to your closest friends is worth it. Get dressed up and make speeches with your wedding party and others close to you!

2. Socially-distant car parade: One way to celebrate your special day is to have your close friends and family who live locally drive by your house. Despite the distance, your loved ones will be able to celebrate your wedding in person from inside their cars.

3. Stay-at-home celebration: At the end of the day, your wedding is about you and your partner. Take this chance to have a romantic stay-at-home date with your new spouse. You could dress you and make a fancy dinner or you could get comfy and reminiscence on your relationship.
