If you live in an area where the local COVID-19 alert level is high you can stay in a hotel outside of your area, but you must only do this with people in your household or support bubble.

Similarly, you are able to attend a wedding service and attend a wedding reception provided it takes place at a COVID-secure venue or in public outdoor space, unless specific exemptions apply. Up to 15 people can attend a wedding, or a wedding reception in a medium risk area. However, you should not mingle with anyone outside of your household or support bubble while you are there.
