Weddings are back. After a year and a half of cancellations, postponements, guest restrictions and shortened ceremonies, there has finally been a relaxation of the rules.
As of June 21, there was no longer a cap of 30 guests in England – couples can now invite as many as they want – but weddings have not yet quite returned to the free-for-all of previous years. Social distancing must be maintained until at least July 19, when all restrictions in England are due to be lifted (for Scotland it’s Aug 9, while Wales reviews its guidance on July 15).
