Sri Lanka has announced revised health guidelines for wedding ceremonies in light of the prevailing Covid-19 situation in the country. Accordingly, a decision has been taken to allow only 150 guests to be accommodated for a wedding at a venue with a seating capacity of over 500 persons. At the same time only 100 guests are allowed for weddings at venues with a seating capacity of less than 500 persons. Meanwhile the maximum number of people allowed to attend a funeral at any given time has also been limited to 25. These revisions of health guidelines will come into effect from midnight today (Aug 06).
