Postpone is to move a planned activity/event that has not yet happened to a later date, which means it is in-purpose(有目的的) and reasonable(合理的) action, and this action is initiated(发起) by someone who has enough power to delay an existing plan.
Examples:
The All-Employee meeting is postponed to next week due to due to the accidental absence of company GM.

Defer also is to move a planned event to a later date in purpose, but it carries more negative connotation(消极意味).

Delay is a period of time before an event happens. It can be used widely, but it can’t carry voluntary(自愿的) (in purpose) connotation(意味), because Delay is unpredictable(不可预知).
Examples:

早上上班路上堵车严重,耽误了早会(会议并没有因为我的迟到而停下来)
