Thiruvananthapuram: With the covid limit put a hat on the number of people who can attend the wedding, the family has difficulty choosing 20 guests.
Many cannot decide and cancel the marriage for fear that their close relatives and friends will not be in demand with no extended invitation.
The others continue with streaming online like the norm during the first and second waves.
However, those who delay marriage, hope from large functions, have been left sad.
Most people are also afraid of complaints they will receive from those close to them because they have not been invited.
When the wedding date was set a few months ago, all other settings, including food, decoration, and transportation were also made accordingly.
Even printed wedding cards and families have finished inviting close and loved ones.
Now, the family is busy making phone calls to guests who ask them not to come.
“We have to cancel all arrangements and are forced to include one member of each family.
We have also canceled the bus we ordered for the comfort of our relatives.
The wedding date was repaired eight months ago taking into account the Covid case at that time.
We have the hope that things will be Normal and we can do our dream marriage.
Suddenly, the situation has changed and it is the saddest part, “said a young man who did not want to be named.
Other families who had planned a wedding for February 12 said that they had not started preparations.
“We haven’t started the arrangement for the wedding that occurred on February 12.
The reason behind it was that we were confused and had decided that we would do according to the situation.
We could not delay the marriage when my son worked abroad and he had to leave immediately after the wedding .
I believe that more than minimizing the number of participants, giving the number of people prescribed per square foot can be more acceptable.
We also have to consider financially underdeveloped people who also have a dream about their marriage and cannot work on arrangements again if not There is a down payment paid by them, “Parents said.
