Wedding planners are not expecting to see ceremonies involving more than 100 people before October at the earliest.

Earlier today Health Minister Simon Harris said it would be "highly unlikely" that weddings of up to 100 people would be allowed to take place in July.

Under the government's road map to reopening the country, small ceremonies are set to be allowed from July 20th.

Wedding planner Sharon McMeel believes larger weddings might be ruled out until the final few months of the year.

''I don't think any of us in the wedding industry expect to be back to weddings of 100 or more until October or even November'', she said.

''We've only just moved into phase one and we can meet up to four people outside.

''Whereas if you're talking about having events indoors, I think if you can get 50 people by August you'd be lucky.''
