The G20 & Your Wedding

Have you read this wedding disaster story that appeared in today’s Star? It’s about a couple who can no longer use their chosen church for their June 26 wedding because it happens to be located inside of the G20 summit’s security perimeter.

The article mentions that at least three other weddings have been disrupted by the summit’s security concerns and it sounds like it might impact at least a few more. While the exact coordinates of security perimeter probably won’t be released until two weeks before the summit starts, the tentative area covers from Lake Shore Blvd. W. up to Queen St. and then from Yonge St. to Spadina Ave.

If you’re getting married the weekend of June 26 and your wedding somehow touches on that area (think about where your vendors are located), you should probably start thinking about a “G20 back-up plan” in case that event does somehow impact your day.

That doesn’t mean that things need to be cancelled or dramatically changed, it just means that you should, for example, get in touch with the appropriate vendor and ask if they have any thoughts on or plans for the situation.
