Gathering size/how many guests

I am curious, how many are you allowed for a wedding in your province currently? Are you making guest a, b, c lists with possibility of different numbers for next year? How are you handling this? We are Sask and our numbers are 30 right now for weddings.

    I think that may be where we are at. Is plus ones that aren't spouses or long term relationships would be where the cuts would be made to include some of our closest friends. Hopefully it comes up from 10 again for your date!

    That is it. Wanting to make sure everyone is safe and healthy. I think now with postponing it's given me more time to think and decide how to work things given smaller numbers. Hopefully BC doesn't lower numbers or they are at least back up by your wedding date.

    In Alberta we are at 100 for outdoor or indoor seated events which would be the ceremonies. Then we are at 50 for indoor social gatherings, receptions.

    At the moment we have 63 people on our original guest list. I have an idea of who we will "cut" if needed for the reception next year but at this moment I have not made any alternate lists. I do like the idea though so thank you.

    Ontario we are allowed 10 indoors and 25 outdoors. Vendors do not count towards these numbers.

    We have moved our wedding to our backyard and having just our parents, grandparents and siblings along with MOH and BM. We are 23 people.

    In New Brunswick we can have 50 with social distancing. There are two regions who are basically in time out and they can only have 10 for weddings and funerals.


    We had our "bubble" which ended up being about 20 with out photographer and officiant. Hopefully next year we can have about 80-100.

    We're currently allowed 10. Back in the summer, we made a list of 50 (whittled down from 250) in the event that's all we're allowed for the foreseeable future. I made it a point of including some friends, which meant a lot of families' +1s were cut, even if they are married.

    Right now in BC they're still allowing 50 people for gatherings. My fiance and I are watching closely since there's talk they might lower that number here soon.

    We haven't started looking at our guest list yet but we did talk about that since our guest list is sitting at 72 at the moment, that some of our friends will have to be told that we can't invite them at this time. We have also have talked about a, b, and c list. All of our immediate family will be group A, close friends will be group B and the rest will be group C. Once we start sending out the invites for group A and see who have said yes to coming or not coming, we will then start with group B and so forth.

    We've both come to realization that our wedding guest list will not have everyone that we wanted there and our wedding will be a bit smaller but at the end of the day we want to make sure everyone is safe and healthy.
