I was recently working with a bride and groom who have decided to postpone their wedding.  They just met a few months ago and they realized they need more time to get to know each other.  This was a very difficult decision for them to make.  It effected their perspective on marriage and it tarnished their enthusiasum.  At one point they said they should go ahead with their wedding because they've already spent money as deposits on the hall, the photographer, the flowers, the cake and her gown.  But after talking through these feelings they realized that they're not getting married because of money, but because of their love for each other.  So they've pushed their wedding off until early next year.  Now the pressure to create a big wedding in less than 2 months is lessened and they have time to plan a wedding that they will enjoy creating. 

If your wedding has been postponed, or you are seriously thinking about postponing it, don't let the fact that you have deposits out there stop you from making a potentially life-changing decision.  Seriously think about all the factors involved in planning the wedding.  If you love each other now, you will love each other 6, 8, 10, or 12 months from now.  Postponing a wedding takes maturity and guts.   Good luck.
