The Government announced on 23 June that small weddings, with up to 30 people in attendance, could resume in England from 4 July. The Welsh Government permitted weddings to resume in Wales from 22 June.
It will be for individual local authorities to ensure that their register offices can undertake ceremonies safely in accordance with public health guidelines.
