Couples will be able to tie the knot in a wider variety of venues and have legally binding Sikh, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu and other faith-based ceremonies, under proposals to relax wedding laws
Humanists will also be able to conduct legally binding ceremonies for the first time in England and Wales (humanists can already do this in Scotland). The government said the proposed reforms, announced last week, will allow ceremonies to be held at castles, beaches, heritage sites and other ‘appropriate and dignified’ locations.
Family law minister Baroness Levitt said the reforms would provide ‘more choice for couples’.
