Allow stand up receptions at weddings

Closed 68 signatures

What the petition asks

Remove the current government requirements for food and drink to be only served to seated guests at weddings.
Currently there are many festivals (Download) sporting events (Ascot, football matches) and political social events (G7) that have the same number of people, if not more, as a wedding. These events allow standing, eating and drinking.
