Allow wedding ceremonies and receptions to take place with social distancing

Petition Details

Allow wedding receptions to take place in line with changes to the Covid rules on wedding ceremonies; recognising that social distancing and suitable sanitisation will be necessary.

Additional Information

With the announcement that hotels, pubs and restaurants are being allowed to reopen in July, it seems disproportionate to not allow wedding receptions. It is estimated that the wedding industry in the UK is worth £10b. This has clearly been hit hard since Covid 19 and therefore this petition has been started in order to allow the industry, including the many small and independent traders, to benefit from the release of lock down along with everyone else, before it's too late.
