You can have a civil ceremony at any approved venue in England or Wales. These premises are licensed by your local Council for this purpose.
Set in the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside or in our historic towns and cities, these range from Hotels to National Trust Properties and University Colleges to Golf Clubs.
Most venues have more than one room licensed so the limit number is the maximum number of guests each venue can cater for in the ceremony. You will need to discuss with both your local registration office and the venue available dates and times. You do not have to live in that district to be able to have a ceremony there. To find our more detailed information, and who to contact, please visit the marriage page.
