Heather Peters decided to go ahead with her destination wedding after 20 months of waiting, what she did not realize was that she would be starting 2022 still stuck in quarantine. 

Birthdays, concerts, sporting events — everyone has had something cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, Heather Peters decided to go ahead with her destination wedding after 20 months of waiting.

But what she did not realize was that she would be starting 2022 still stuck in quarantine.

“I fully anticipated needing to wait. I fully anticipated missing Christmas but I didn’t anticipate missing the entire holiday season,” said Peters.

Her group of 23 got back to Saskatoon from Punta Cana on Dec. 23.

She says only six of them were randomly selected for rapid testing at the Saskatoon airport on arrival.

Of those tested, three are still waiting to get their results back while quarantining at home without symptoms.

“A lot of my family didn’t attend our wedding and so to not see them throughout the entire Christmas season makes it worse,” said Peters through tears.
