Should we postpone or not?

Tricky one this as you're such on the cusp. Remember the guidelines say that it would only be 30 people allowed OUTSIDE, so if there are indoor elements, your venue might not even let you? Otherwise only 6 will still be allowed together indoors.

And you're right, you'll only know on May 10th (a week before the 17th when the changes are due) if those changes will happen so depends on how flexible your guests can be?

We're September so can't be of too much help, but we have a lot of guests coming from all over, so I would've re-arranged it if i was early June as it would just be too stressful otherwise, but everyone has different thoughts about this thing. Hopefully you'll get some more clarity soon!

As usual with these "first draft" announcements they have left out some important info or any clarity.

Weddings can go ahead with 15 from 12th april to May 16 but there is no clarification on where. I am sure that once they get a bigger fag packet they will add some more info within the next couple of days.

Its because they don't seem to ask the people in the industry, I think they just said "weddings" and expect them to be inside. This happend last time untill a couple of days later when "approved covid secure premises" were added to the guidance.

They also say you can have a reception but the roadmap only allows for outside hospitality between the april and may 17th in step 2.

step 3 from 17th may to June 21st will allow weddings and receptions of 30 and indoor hospitality also allowed at that point.
