Allow weddings and receptions for up to 50 people
Rejected

What the petition asks
We are now allowed a wedding of 30 people but not a reception? Yet we can go to the pub with 150 unknown people but can’t have a wedding reception with our family? This needs to change sooner rather than later to save the sector and couples dreams! Make this happen for August 15th.
Allow indoor and outdoor weddings of up to 50 people with a reception providing contact details are all taken in order to track and trace.
