FAQs

We are! You can choose between a Traditional Civil ceremony and an Enhanced ceremony for more personalisation and a longer ceremony.

At the Abbeygate Room unfortunately not. However, we offer outdoor ceremonies at most of our approved venues (visit our website for a directory of our approved venues) and also at unlicensed venues such as your own garden. Please contact us to discuss.

Absolutely not! The times of 'one size fits all' have long passed, and we encourage our couples to make their wedding their own. Contact us what we can offer to make your wedding bespoke.

Planning meetings are ideal to discuss your plans with your Registration Service Celebrant and find out what happens on the day. Our Enhanced ceremonies all include a planning meeting.

Far from it! Register Office weddings offer flexibility, affordability and apart from religious content, the same options for personalisation that you'd have with a private celebrant.
