Ceremony Essentials
Once the couple have decided on the type of wedding ceremony, they should research what is required of them and how to book their big day. It is important to include the cost of the ceremony in the budget.
Marriages can take place in England and Wales at a register office, in a building approved for civil marriage (e.g. a stately home or hotel), in a Church of England or Church in Wales parish church, or in any religious building that is registered for the solemnisation of marriage.
