Weddings in lockdown?

Dear Editor,
As a man due to marry this summer, I was
delighted to hear the government confirm
that weddings are permitted again. The
lockdown period brought many challenges
for engaged couples, with some wrestling
with the issue of whether Christians should
pursue a marriage ‘in God’s eyes’, adding
the state’s ‘legal necessities’ at a later date.
Whilst the government ban has been lifted,
the issue is still worth engaging with, not
least given the possibility of a second peak.
