The Registrar was absolutely fantastic, empathetic, kind, enthusiastic and friendly. She was exactly the sort of person’ we hoped would marry us, thank you’ "
Some questions about your ceremony
You can call the Ceremonies Liaison Team in the lead up to your big day; we are available five days a week to help with the planning of your ceremony. When organising your day, you can submit as much detail and information on your planning form as you want. You can have your ceremony anywhere, any day, any time – subject to our availability. Please contact us to discuss your ideas and our ceremony packages. If you want to keep your ceremony short, sweet and simple the Registrars will conduct the ceremony as you wish. Once you have decided on your venue, contact us to book the Registrars for your big day. Your ceremony can be booked two years in advance and the earlier you contact us the more likely it is that you will get the date and time you want. You will need to pay a non-refundable booking fee to confirm your booking, with the remaining balance due three months before the ceremony.
Can my pet be a part of our ceremony? Yes, at an Approved Venue if the venue has agreed this. Unfortunately, we cannot allow pets (except assistance animals) at our Register Offices. Can I have candles at my ceremony? We are happy for you to personalise your ceremony so please let us know what you’re thinking about including. We just need to ensure that it’s safe and the Marriage Register is protected. We don’t want to disappoint you on the day. Can I have any religious content during our ceremony? We will do all we can to accommodate any requests – please contact us with your ideas and ask about our special packages. Can I hold a religious blessing just before my ceremony takes place? There are some rules and guidance that venues approved for Marriage and Civil Partnership need to follow. We are more than happy to advise you about this and it is important that you talk to the Ceremony Liaison Team about this before your big day.
