Civil Ceremonies
Ceremonies are non-religious and are conducted by the local Superintendent Registrar. A notice of marriage has to be given personally to your local superintendent registrar Christine Arundel at the Register Office in the district in which you and your partner reside. In our case Saltash registry office is the closest and you can call them on 01752 842624.
	A notice of marriage states the names of the parties to the marriage, age, marital status, address, occupation nationality and the intended venue for the marriage. Notices of marriage must be given in person to the superintendentregistrar by you and your partner. No one else can do so on your behalf. Where an advance booking for a marriage has been made, it is essential that a formal notice is given to the superintendent registrar.
	Your marriage cannot go ahead unless the legal formalities have been completed. There are nationally set fees for giving notice to the superintendent registrar and the registrar's attendance at the marriage at a register office or religious building. However, the fee for the attendance of the superintendent registrar and registrar is set by the local authority.
	On the day of your wedding you will need to bring with you at least two other people who are prepared to witness the marriage and sign the marriage register.
