Marrying in this district

You give notice of marriage in person at the register office for the district where you have lived for the last 7 full days — which may not be this one, even if you marry here. In standard cases you then wait 28 days before the ceremony can take place.

The council offers civil ceremony venues, including St George's Town Hall, for weddings and civil partnerships.
