Just tell them you decided to wait another year before having the wedding. If it were next week and you were pushing it back, that's another issue entirely, but where you were thinking next June, and now you're thinking June '08, you're fine.

What is the real deal? You can have a beautiful wedding no matter what the budget. I had a friend borrow almost everything. We did her hair, the guests brought potluck for the reception, and it was beautiful. If you have to have a big deal. Plan two events- a very small ceremony and a reception party a year later. Another friend just did this. She registered and everything. They went to the mountains for the ceremony with close family and then had a big party this summer. If you need the time to figure out if you still want to get married,then tell everyone that you are wanting to take your time to plan a great ceremony and that you also want time to do marriage classes Tell everyone how awesome these classes are your friends told you about. Then go find some pre wedding classes. If it really is a money issue and you are fine with waiting a year, just send out save the date cards with the new date and tell anyone with questions that you felt more time to plan would be better.

If you haven't sent out invites or save the dates, then word of mouth should suffice. You don't have to offer an excuse, but if anyone is forward enough to ask, just say that you need more time to plan the best party that you can, or something to that effect.
If you want, you can even send out a note to everyone that says something like:
"Due to unforeseen circumstances, our wedding has been rescheduled. Thank you for understanding and we are sorry if it causes any inconvenience.
Smith & Doe
June, 2008"
Or, you could be silly about it and say something like "Due to the increasing cost of flugelschmidts and the frequency in which we planned to use them in our wedding, we've decided to wait until June 2008 when there will be a bumper crop. Thank you for your patience." Use whatever word you want, but something that's complete nonsense would work best.
Have a great wedding! : )

Tell them that you have run into monetary problems that you don't want following you into a new marriage and so you are waiting another year to get more money together to pay for the wedding. It is the truth and no one can condone you for it. You are doing this the right way. No one is going into debt for a wedding of the century.

ok, the 1st situation is, it is heartening to pay attention you nonetheless have the husband. that's what the marriage is all approximately, in spite of everything, top? 2nd - no one's wedding ceremony *ever* comes out the way they dream - whatever they say. something continually happens, with the aid of fact it relies upon on a defense force of individuals you're hiring for the 1st time on your life, to do each form of severe jobs, and generally a minimum of certainly one of them messes up or misunderstands what you thought you wanted.

I can speak from experience that the BEST wedding gift you can ever give yourself is to be debt free after your wedding. We pushed our wedding back a year as well, but it enabled us to have the money to pay for everything.
Soon after our wedding with zero debt, we ended up buying a bigger home.

Just be honest with them, and I'm sure they will understand. It's better to get a marriage off to a good start, then to hurry it along when you're not ready. Financial issues are important, so it's wise of you both to wait until things get better financially. LOL.
