Allow existing and planned weddings for all in tier 4 to go ahead.

Closed 43 signatures

What the petition asks

We are the only U.K. nation to ban weddings under tier 4 restrictions. For those who had existing plans already booked to marry, this has caused a stressful Christmas time with the uncertainty of wedding cancellations, financial loss and of course heartbreak.
We would like the Government to reconsider tier 4 weddings that were already booked and in place. Receptions were already banned, limited number of guests had to be masked and remain 2 metres away from other guests. The risk of COVID being transmitted at a wedding under tier 3 guidelines is extremely unlikely and therefore should go ahead for those who had already planned.
