JAKARTA - The Provincial Government (Pemprov) of DKI Jakarta is asked to immediately allow wedding receptions during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is because several business sectors have begun to reopen during the transitional PSBB period.
Chairman of the Indonesian Documentation Entrepreneurs Association (HIPDI) Suprafto said that his party felt the government was unfair because it still prohibited wedding receptions. Because the wedding ceremony has not been done until now.
"We feel neglected. There is an injustice when malls and entertainment venues are opened while we are not. In fact, weddings (wedding receptions, red) are cultural," Suprafto told reporters, Wednesday, July 8.
Continuing, the Chairman of the Indonesian Decorative Services Employers Association (Aspedi) Warsono, said that the condition of the wedding services business sector is at its lowest point. They continue to lose money because they have no income due to the ban on receptions.
Therefore, Warsono said that his party had offered the concept of a wedding reception by applying the COVID-19 protocol to the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. They hope the concept offer is accepted so that a remarriage reception is allowed.
"We have made a procedure according to the regulations from the Ministry of Health. From the decoration at the venue (reception) itself, we are quite ready in the current way," said Warsono.
Previously, the Indonesian Clothing and Dress Entrepreneurs Association (Appgindo) had offered the concept of the COVID-19 wedding protocol to the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. However, the Jakarta Provincial Government has yet to grant the COVID-19 protocol.
The details, first Appgindo prepares a protocol for the wedding organizer (WO) crew. All crew working must be in good health, wear closed clothing, always wear masks and keep their distance. For the crew on duty during the event, they have handy talkies (HT) which are not used in turns.
Then, with the make-up and hairdresser, all the make-up that is ready to use has been cleaned with alcohol or a disinfectant. Especially for the use of lipstick, the ends will be cut after each use.
At the time of the marriage contract, the prince and bride are wearing gloves. Each guest and companion chair is given a distance of 1 meter.
At the reception, all guests who come are required to wear masks and have the temperature checked. If the temperature is above 37.5 degrees Celsius, it will be prohibited from entering. The incoming queue is spaced. Then, Appgindo prepared an option for giving envelopes virtually using online bank transfers.
Then, in the ballroom area, each chair is also given a distance of 1 meter. Crews will be deployed in every corner to monitor the COVID-19 protocol for guests.
In the catering section, the vendor provides a provision that guests are not allowed to take their own food. All tables use a cover glass on the catering table to avoid contact or transmission of droplets from guests. All drinks must also use a closed plastic bottle. Also, guests are offered to receive take-away food.
Then, during the documentation session, invited guests who will take pictures with the bride and groom must maintain a safe distance. Photo crews are also not allowed to accept photo requests using guests' cellphones.
