Rejected petition Allow weddings in teir 4 with at least 5 people.
Rejected on
Permit couples to become legally married in teir 4 with 5 people.
The people at the ceremony would be the registrar, the couple and two witnesses.
Couples have had to postpone, cancel with little to no notice. A lot of couples have been hit financially as a result of this pandemic.
Marriage is an important life event and this should not be cancelled. All couples should be allowed to legally marry.
Weddings can be kept as short as possible.
