U-Turn… Ceremony Postponed – Ghisu Car Rental

“Force majeure.” That used to be the go-to reason for any delay, even when every detail was meticulously arranged. In fact, you were almost at the finish line. Yet yesterday—as today—unexpected circumstances can still upend the most solidly planned events. Right now in Italy, the biggest disruptor is Covid-19 and its impact on all our daily habits.

There’s a solution for everything

You’ve penciled in the date, sent out the invitations, and your outfit only needs its final tweaks before pickup. But… there’s a catch. In March 2020, the government issued a decree prohibiting all gatherings—public events, ceremonies, weddings, even funerals—to curb the virus’s spread. Tough decisions, yes, but they reflect a context that demands resilience, patience, and cooperation. So what comes next? Let’s break it down…

Keep your cool

“This wedding shall not take place,” warned the Bravi—words that have echoed through our classic literature—and there are countless reasons a celebration might be at risk: uncooperative weather, last-minute obstacles, logistical hiccups… If you’ve already arranged the venue décor or finalized the seating chart, our first tip is to stay calm. Assess the situation and remember that every unforeseen hurdle has a solution.

No panic. Start by talking openly with your partner, sharing doubts and fears. Decide together—that’s the key to keeping your spirits up. As the English say, “Think positive.” It’s advice that couldn’t be more fitting. Trust that, sooner or later, you’ll reach your goal. All it takes is a little patience.

Notify out-of-town guests first—especially those who booked flights or accommodations—so they can seek refunds if possible. Then turn to local friends and family, who will surely be happy to help and lend emotional support.

Step two: contact your vendors. Review any contracts for postponement clauses. Whether it’s the photographer, florist, or caterer, you’ll likely find most professionals willing to accommodate a new date and work with your needs.

If you’ve purchased favors, place cards, or other items, set them aside—they can almost certainly be reused. And if you chose edible favors like jams or preserves, check their expiration dates so you can arrange exchanges if needed.

“It is pleasure itself.” This aphorism by German playwright Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1763) invites reflection. We’re living through a kind of “Saturday in the village”—the calm before the big day. Rest assured that Sunday’s dawn is just around the corner. Let’s look ahead with determination, conscientiousness, and joy.
