Billy Morgan - Tumultuous 2020

Billy Morgan discusses the impact the Covid-19 pandemic had on his wedding plans. He and his fiancé Sandra Fernandez were planning to be married on March 28, 2020 but were forced to dramatically change their wedding plans due to two reasons, one being the sudden death in February of Sandra's mother due to pneumonia (perhaps due to COVID-19) and secondly due to Governor J.B. Pritzker's decision to shut down all restaurants in mid-March because of the growing coronavirus pandemic. They were married on July 25 in his parents' back yard with only twelve people present.
