This article was created in June 2020 in response to England leaving the first lockdown. We are no longer updating this article so the information provided by these venues may no longer be up to date. Please see our coronavirus news article for the most up to date information or visit your government’s website.

On the 29th of June 2020, the government released guidance on small weddings and civil ceremonies. This stated that approved venues would also be allowed to host weddings alongside places of worship and register offices. We've asked venues across England to share their plans to open their doors, for added reassurance for 2020 couples, and to help couples starting to look for a venue.

Our wedding Track & Trace is ready to go and we'll be offering live streaming to guests that can't be there, so you can plan your wedding with added confidence.
