Wellbeing of COVID-19 Wedding Attendees
- Ensure your guests are aware they should only attend if they are feeling well and do not have any respiratory or COVID-19 symptoms.
- Consider sending out messages as the event draws closer to remind your wedding guests it’s important, they don’t attend if they are feeling unwell, and encourage them to get tested.
- If a guest has symptoms and asks if they should attend your wedding, encourage them to see their GP or attend a local fever clinic.
- Think about ways your guests can be involved through a video broadcast or live stream if they can’t attend due to illness or travel restrictions.
- If you are hire a venue for the ceremony or wedding reception, talk to the event planner or facility about any available options to stream the event.
- If you have wedding guests who are at high h risk of developing COVID-19 complications such as elderly people or people with conditions affecting their immunity, consider discussing the option of attending the ceremony only, which is lower risk than the reception.
- If you serve alcohol at your wedding, consider ways to encourage responsible use, such as limiting bar tabs or drink package.
Physical Distancing for COVID-19 Weddings
- Current COVID-19 wedding restrictions state guest capacity must not exceed one person per 4 square metres.
- If you want to have singing or live music at the wedding ceremony or reception, consider having solo singers, rather than group singing – which is higher risk, and consider alternatives to wind instruments (such as a flute, oboe or clarinet) which are also higher risk. When choosing the venue, make sure there is extra room for singers (at least 3 metres from other people).
- Consider seating guests from the same household next to each other, to make it easier to fit everyone safely together.
- Consider having wedding photos taken before the ceremony (rather than in between the ceremony and reception) to decrease the amount of time between each.
This guide will help you create and maintain a safe environment for you and your guests when planning a wedding during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wedding & Reception COVID-19 Hygiene & Cleaning
- Consider alternatives to physical gifts or wishing wells, such as online gift registries, direct delivery or electronic funds transfer.
- Think about how other hygiene risks could be minimised, such as not sharing food or cigarettes/e-cigarettes and making sure people can remember which glassware is theirs.
- If you would like a guest book, consider disposable pens, or have a plan to clean any shared pens and the area around the book in-between guests signing. Consider alternatives like a digital guestbook that can be filled in from home.
