isle of wight ceremonies guide 9
Recording the event A photograph album is a very special memento and we are happy to allow photographs at particular points during the ceremony. We suggest that you have one main photographer that takes official photographs during the ceremony, although we request that the use of a flash is minimal. We will also allow time for guests to take some of their own photographs at the end of a ceremony, should you wish this to happen. A single video recording is also permitted, but please inform the Ceremonies Officer on your ceremony option form beforehand. The equipment should be battery operated (unless you have a special arrangement with the licenced venue) as the registration service cannot provide any power source and will not accept responsibility for damage or loss to equipment whilst on any premises. The recording may only be made using the lighting already present in the ceremony room (no additional filming lights are permitted) and the operator must remain stationary throughout the ceremony. Parking The amount of parking varies according to where you have chosen to hold your ceremony. Please discuss what is available with the venue you have chosen. Confetti Confetti is a traditional part of any marriage or civil partnership celebration. We understand this and would simply ask that you check with your chosen venue as to what restrictions they may have regarding
where it can be used. At the register office, we are happy for your guests to use confetti once outside as long as it is biodegradable. Interpreter It is essential that both you and your two witnesses fully understand the content of your marriage or civil partnership ceremony, and therefore the full legal implications of such a celebration. If there are any language difficulties, you must provide a suitable interpreter to attend with you who will sign a declaration to confirm that they have translated all content for you, and are satisfied that you understand the nature and purpose of the ceremony. Having your ceremony outside We understand that you may have your heart set on an outside ceremony. Some of our approved premises have licenced garden structures and some venues have suitable outside areas, which enable a ceremony to take place outside. Due to the unpredictable British weather, whether your ceremony will be held outside or in the inside space of your chosen venue, is the decision of the registrars in attendance on the day. Please contact us for further information on which venues have this option and the terms and conditions surrounding such bookings.
