New Covid rules for weddings and people meeting group of 6

sweetsand

Hi
I'm not easily confused but these new rules have confused me.
The rule of 6. Does that mean lets say we have 6 people living in our home and our family bubble
or the bubble consists of 9 people but only 6 can visit at a time?
Weddings, 30 people inc children, etc - is this in your home or an official venue? Or can you have 30 people ar home with
good SD practices for this?
I'm aware 6 different people from 6 different households can meet inside, outside but it's the bubble.
Thanks in advance.

30 for weddings is for the ceremony and then a sit down meal. Good luck with 30 people at home if someone decided to grass you up.

If your family including anyone in your support bubble is 6...that's your 6.
So no visitors if your all in the house. 
If your household is more than 6 obviously you don't have to move someone into the shed!!
6 means 6

Are you having a Wedding? If it’s at home  the council normally issue you with a licence so they would see the numbers applied for and know it’s against current restrictions? Seems you are posting such a question not for answers but boredom/trolling/stupidity?

The six people only applies when meeting people outside your bubble/household.

So if you have six or more in your household you cannot meet anyone else in your home.
If you are a single parent you can form a support bubble and that can total more than six people, but again you cannot meet others at the same time then.

So only way you can meet other people is to leave some of the household at home and go out as a smaller group to meet others up to a total group of six.

For weddings you can have up to 30 for a ceremony and sit-down meal. I doubt many people can fit 30 in their own home and have them all sitting down with waited service food.

Dammit; sorry! The exemption for the wedding ceremony/reception only applies at Covid secure venues. If you have your reception at home; you can only have six people attend.

Yep 6 people only. I have a terminally ill relative. The service at the crem when the time comes will allowfor upto 25 people currently. Anything afterwards ie the wake is 6 people.
