Civil ceremonies can include things like exchanging wedding rings, readings, songs or music, but have to not consist of anything that is religious such as hymns or readings from the Bible.
Notice of marriage can be offered up to a year prior to the wedding and is attested by independent individual interview. The dates and instances of availability for ceremonies are managed and at the discretion of the Superintendent Registrar. The law demands that you are accompanied by two witnesses at your wedding or civil partnership. Both parties will want to give in person a separate Notice of Marriage to the Superintendent Registrar of the District where they live.
Documents (eg divorce decree absolute, birth certificate, a existing valid complete passport) will be requested by the Superintendent Registrar. If you have decided to have a combined naming and wedding ceremony, please let the registrar know at this point.
