The Bride Wore A Face Mask - The New Normal For Weddings

Fáilte Ireland has published new guidelines for reopening hotels and guesthouses, which state that wedding guests must wear face coverings when not at the dinner table. No more than 50 people will be allowed into bars or function rooms for weddings, and an 11.30pm curfew is also in place. As well as this, guests will not be permitted to share salt and pepper shakers or butter dishes. Wedding planner Sharon McMeel and Mark Scott Lennon, director and general manager of Fitzpatrick Hotel in Killiney, joined us to discuss how these guidelines are impacting people's wedding plans.
