Josh & Rebecca

11.21.2021 • Galveston, TX

Thank you so much for RSVP-ing to our wedding to be held on November 21, 2021. We thank you for your generosity and kindness as we do our best to start our marriage while also prioritizing health, safety, and joy. The goal of this message is to tell you what to expect when you attend our wedding. Covid precautions may change as we track the state of the pandemic.


This is the COVID safety policy for Josh King and Rebecca Mauldin’s wedding on 11/21/2021.

Last updated Sunday, October 3, 2021.


Location: Galveston, TX.


Headcount: We expect we will have about 90 people in attendance (including vendors). It is our understanding that the indoor reception space can hold 250 people seated with a dance floor, so there will be room to spare.


Vaccines: Guests (aside from children too young to get vaxxed - we anticipate about 7) are confirmed as vaccinated.


Vendors & Vaccination: All vendors, aside from our security guard, have confirmed they are vaccinated. We expect there to be a total of 8 staff and they will be wearing masks at all times.


Masks: We will provide masks but guests are welcome to bring their own. Please feel free to wear your mask whenever and wherever. As of now, we are not requiring guests to wear masks.


Social distancing & Hand Sanitizer: Tables and chairs will be spaced apart. Hand sanitizer will be readily available at the venue.


Indoors/outdoors: Our ceremony will be held outdoors and the reception will be indoors. The reception venue will be at about 35% capacity, and we plan to open doors and windows to create a cross-breeze so we have nice airflow and space throughout the venue.


Testing: We encourage all guests to get tested before the wedding, whether by a professional or using an at-home test. Currently, the U.S. is experiencing a shortage of at-home tests, but we have had luck buying them on Walgreens’ website. Also, we list testing locations close to Galveston and in Galveston proper at the end of this email.


Possible changes: If the pandemic sees major spikes, we may have to revisit safety protocols and make changes to this event. We will definitely keep you posted if this occurs. At this point, numbers are on a downward trend in Galveston and we’re hoping this continues.


To quote the greatest band of all time, “I get by with a little help from my friends.” Thank you for your patience, love & support as we navigate this all.
