Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health says the province has seen a large amount of wedding-related outbreaks.

Proof of vaccination status will soon be required to attend weddings in Ontario.

During a press briefing today, Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore said due to a large number of wedding-related outbreaks, starting Tuesday, you'll need to prove your vaccination status in order to attend a wedding.

He also noted proof of an eligible exemption, such as medical or religious reasons, will be allowed.

Under current regulations, the unvaccinated can attend so long as they have a negative COVID-19 test.
