Arrival
It is very important for you and your guests to
arrive at least 15 minutes earlier than the time
of your marriage or civil partnership. In some
cases the Superintendent Registrar will advise
you to attend earlier.
This will allow you both to be seen (either
together or separately) by the Registrar before
the ceremony and for your guests to be seated.
You may find it helpful to appoint an ‘usher’ who
can liaise with the Registrar to co-ordinate this.
It is important that you and your guests are on
time, as the Registrar will have other weddings
to attend on the same day.
If you are unable to attend for any reason
please telephone the Superintendent
Registrar as soon as possible and confirm
any cancellations in writing.
Your Ceremony
The staff at Liverpool Register Office do not
simply see your ceremony as just another
‘legal affair’. Our experienced team guide over
1800 couples each year so that each have their
own bespoke ceremony exactly as they have
dreamed of. You will not only be offered a
choice of legal vows but also a range of words
to say to each other as you exchange your
rings, you may also write your own vows if you
prefer. Don’t worry about having to learn or
remember the words, our registrars will lead
you through them step by step.
Other popular enhancements to ceremonies
are readings, candle lighting or making family
promises. Please visit our website for more
information.
Music is a very important part of each
ceremony. At the Register Office at St George’s
Hall we are able to offer you your own choice
of music that we will arrange for you and
the registrar will play on the day. Just tell us
what you want and we will do the rest. If your
ceremony is at an approved venue you would
need to discuss your music requirements with
your ceremony planner.
How much
does all this cost?
It can be as little as £127 at the Register Office, St George’s Hall.
