About John Milton Room - Stowmarket Registration Office
Bijou, elegant and with lots of history, the John Milton Room is a very special venue for a wedding with up to 45 guests. Originally added as a ballroom, the Grade II listed building has connections to English Renaissance author John Milton. Although it is our second biggest ceremony room, it has a distinctly intimate feel. Its little orchard and the famous mulberry tree in front of the iconic sash windows make for perfect photo opportunities!
"If you're planning an intimate wedding, the John Milton Room just ticks all the boxes: the walk up to the house runs along a beautifully maintained garden, and the room itself is elegant, with a perfect photo opportunity in front of the sash windows", says Lynn Hiskey, ceremony manager.
Couples can choose between Traditional and Enhanced weddings, depending on how much personalisation they would like: both ceremonies offer a choice of legal wordings and couples are of course very welcome to walk down the aisle to music of their choosing.
For couples that would like to add extra touches, the Enhanced ceremony offers the option to add their own readings and other personal touches.
"Every couple is unique, and therefore every ceremony is unique; some couples prefer a traditional wedding ceremony, while others like to really push the boat out and get all their guests involved in some way" explains Lynn.

We are! You can choose between a Traditional Civil ceremony and an Enhanced ceremony for more personalisation and a longer ceremony.
At the John Milton Room unfortunately not. However, we offer outdoor ceremonies at most of our approved venues (visit our website for a full directory of all our venues) and also at unlicensed venues such as your own garden. Please contact us to discuss.
We love confetti - as long as they are biodegradable.
Far from it! Register Office weddings offer flexibility, affordability and, with the exception of religious content, the same options that you'd have with a private celebrant.
