The purpose of this letter is to help businesses in the weddings sector understand how the CMA considers that consumer protection law applies to the wedding contracts they have with consumers during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

The crisis has highlighted the importance of businesses ensuring their contracts meet the requirements of the law and that they recognise consumers’ rights in the current situation.

Further information can be found in our detailed statement on the CMA’s position on how the law operates in relation to contracts for wedding services affected by the pandemic.
