Marriage in a Civil or Religious Building (other than Church of England/Wales) after 3 May 2021

The Marriage Schedule will be provided by the Superintendent Registrar in the registration district of your marriage.

• If you are marrying in a civil or religious ceremony, as now, you will still be required to give a notice of marriage, at the register office in the district where you have spent the preceding 7 days.
• The schedule will be issued by the Superintendent Registrar following the 28 day waiting period.
• If you are not marrying in a religious building the Superintendent Registrar will retain your Schedule until the ceremony.
• If you are marrying in a religious ceremony, you must arrange for the Marriage Schedule to be collected and taken to the person who will perform the marriage at the religious building before your ceremony. The Superintendent Registrar will explain in more detail how this process will work.
• If you are marrying in the Church of England / Church in Wales you will need to contact the Church in the parish where you intend to marry.
