Closed petition Provide the Weddings & Entertainment sector with a road map to recovery.

The Weddings & Entertainment sector has been largely ignored during the coronavirus pandemic. All other industries have been provided with road maps to recovery and a way out for the future. Please provide us with a road map on how we can return to work when it is safe to do so.

More details

Our industry has been forgotten about & is one of the last sectors to re open. The Wedding industry is a largely viable sector & with no road map we cannot advise couples on how to move forward in the future. Instead we are dealing with cancellations up to a year in advance as there is no guidance available on how things will be able to return. Many venues can provide the space needed to socially distance, and whilst indoor entertainment can now return to 1000, Weddings are still limited to 15.

The petition urges the Government to bring forward immediate additional measures to support the wider wedding industry, including hospitality venues, outfitters, suppliers, the entertainment industry, photographers, vehicle hire companies and coach hire companies.
