Book a registrar for your ceremony

If you wish to have your civil ceremony in the Red Rose Suite or at a licensed venue within the borough, you can make a provisional booking with us to secure a date and time for your ceremony.

All marriages and civil partnerships must be attended by a Superintendent Registrar and a Registrar in the district where the ceremony will take place.

Advanced bookings

You can provisionally book a registrar up to 2 years in advance of the ceremony. This includes marriages, civil partnerships, renewal of vows and naming ceremonies.

Dates available

We can attend your ceremony on any day during the year apart from Christmas Day and Boxing Day, subject to availability.

Prices

To provisionally book your ceremony it costs: 

  • Price until 31 March 2024: £35 
  • Price from 1 April 2024: £37 

This fee is non-refundable.

You need to pay the rest of your ceremony fee at least 2 weeks before your ceremony before you can marry or register a civil partnership at a licensed venue.

Giving notice

Once you've provisionally booked your ceremony, do not forget to also make an appointment to give notice of marriage.
