Emily Webb and her fiance Kevin Beach are getting married in San Diego in early April. Many of their guests for the 200-person wedding are based locally, but a few dozen of them are planning to fly in from across the country.

For many couples getting married this spring and summer, there are so many unknowns with the coronavirus continuing to spread. That’s prompting anxiety, and in many cases, a “wait and see” approach. Weddings are expensive and can take months to plan. Postponing or canceling them might mean that couples are on the hook for thousands of dollars in lost deposits for vendors.
