@ScotWedAlliance@scotgov Is there any chance this would move to tomorrow for weddings this weekend? Like with June changes? Weather warnings predict thunder, ruling out our outdoor dancing. Would be a shame for guests to have to stay at tables when 2days later they would be able to dance without a mask
@ScotWedAlliance Any justification shared for why not Fri 6th versus Mon 9th? Any empirical evidence available? A few days of difference will be unlikely to make a difference to the fight against Covid but for thousands of brides & grooms they will make a difference for a lifetime of memories
We get married on Saturday & have accepted that the day will be different than we’d hoped. But the move from the 9th to the 6th would be like a dream come true💕 #savescottishweddings
Our day is the 7th August, so we’ll either make the cut off by 1 day or miss it by 2. No matter when the changes happen there will always be an unlucky couple who miss it by a day or 2, but knowing far enough in advance to plan is what’s needed here. #yesorno#whataboutweddings
PLEASE @_KateForbes @NicolaSturgeon give an update regarding the next two dates.
Do we have the move to the Friday’s date?
Couples and suppliers can do so much more if given notice.
Please make this answer priority for July/August weddings.

2 weeks to go til our wedding and instead of excitement about the countdown we are stressed and left in limbo. @NicolaSturgeon u need to let us know yes or no to the 16th July @jasonleitch @_KateForbes @ScotWedAlliance
Updated guidance.
We are still pushing for the date to start on Friday 16th July.
@_KateForbes @NicolaSturgeon@ScotWedAlliance
The amendment is welcome but can we please have for weddings from the Friday date?
It’s almost July….while everyone is in holiday mode, our couples marrying this month are on pause and suppliers need business.
Please @_KateForbes @NicolaSturgeon move July Mon 19th date forward to Fri 16th and give us notice to plan!
Weddings take organisation.
There is so much that can be done today to save our industry by phasing in important areas with suppliers excluded, areas in entertainment altered, 2 metre ceremony rule amendment and a funding strategy.
Please save our industry today 🙏🏻🙏🏻@NicolaSturgeon @_KateForbes @scotgov
@ScotWedAlliance@scotgov Rearranged our “big day” for 2022, going ahead with our “wee wedding” 7weeks today-still no idea what entertainment we’ll have. My 85y/o granny has always said her life would be fulfilled if she could dance w/me at my wedding, not allowed but fab zones are?! #WhatAboutWeddings
“I’m on my way from misery to happiness today” please @NicolaSturgeon open weddings up properly today in line with sport!
Let’s all enjoy the Summer months, not just football fans 🤍🤍 #savescottishweddings
@_KateForbes @scotgov
We shouldn’t have to beg to be treated equally.
Weddings are major life events, sporting events can be too.
We should be given the same opportunity to enjoy ourselves with family and numbers of 50/100/200 which is safer than thousands of strangers!
