Couples are going ahead with smaller ceremonies, with up to six attendees, including bride and groom
Having trimmed their guest list from 180 people to four, Jessica and Jonny Chope were one of the first couples to get married on Monday when restrictions in England eased to allow weddings to take place again.
They tied the knot at Alton register office in front of their parents while a registrar read the vows from behind a plastic screen. It was a world away from the big wedding they had originally planned for summer 2020, but for Jessica the intimate ceremony could not have been more perfect.
