COVID-19
During 2020 many couples postponed their religious weddings, because of the Coronavirus.
The options for travel and the availability of venues, became limited due to government restrictions. As a consequence many of these ceremonies were rebooked for 2021.
As a result of this decision, couples who are seeking to have their wedding in 2021 are finding it harder than usual to find a date that suits them and for which a rabbi is free.
If you are looking for a rabbi for 2021, do not hesitate to get in touch as soon as possible and check for current availability. The consequences of Coronavirus is now an important issue when preparing for a religious ceremony. This applies regardless of whether the ceremony takes place outside, or inside and may be subject to local, or national restrictions to protect everyone from being infected. Other steps may need to betaken to protect all those attending from being infected. For more information about having a wedding during the Coronavirus pandemic, click here.
