BUSINESSES in the weddings and events industry have said it is like “the floodgates have opened” for bookings since the Prime Minister set the roadmap out of lockdown. Since the announcement on Monday, February 22, event venues across East Lancashire say they have had an influx of enquiries for events after June 21, when it is hoped that most Covid restrictions will be dropped. Some venues are fully booked every weekend from mid-June until November, with some couples even booking weddings on a Tuesday or Wednesday – something that is ordinarily unheard of.
