Giving notice of marriage or civil partnership

Taken straight from

It is a legal requirement to give notice in advance of marriage or civil partnership. Your notice is publicly displayed for fifteen days, after which the authority for your marriage or civil partnership can be granted. Each notice is valid for one year, but if you decide to change venue, new notices must be given.

If you are having a civil marriage or civil partnership, you both need to go to your local register office to give notice. If you plan holding your marriage or civil partnership in a different area, you should also contact the local register office for that area before you give notice, to ensure that officials will be available on the day.

  1. Awesome. Okay, so that means we need to do the notice thing on or after 28th of July 2011, providing we are set on the date and venue. Win, thanks for doing that honey!
