Guidance for those who wish to marry on approved premises
(2010)
As soon as a couple have made provisional arrangements for their marriage on approved premises, they should be
advised to contact the Superintendent Registrar for the district in which the premises are situated.
The Register Office
Eastgate House
79 Eastgate Street
Stafford
ST16 2NG
Telephone: 01889 256015
Without the presence of this Superintendent Registrar and a Registrar there can be no marriage and any
arrangements for the use of the premises depend entirely on their availability. It is therefore essential that the couple
make an advanced booking with this Superintendent Registrar for his attendance at the proposed marriage as soon as
a booking can be accepted. A fee for this attendance will be payable before the ceremony.
The couple will also have to give a notice of marriage to the Superintendent Registrar(s) of the district(s) in which
they live. This notice must be given in person by one of the couple, but is valid for only 3 months. One of the couple
therefore attends the Register Office where they live as soon as possible after notice can be given. The couple should
be warned that any arrangements made for a marriage to take place on approved premises are dependent on:
The attendance of the Superintendent Registrar and a Registrar for the district in which they are situated.
The issue of the authority or authorities for marriage by the Superintendent Registrar(s) to whom notice of marriage
was given.
When notice is given in a different registration district from the one where the marriage is taking place, the couple
will have to collect the authority before the ceremony, and ensure that it is delivered to the registrar who is to attend
the ceremony.
The couple should be advised that only a civil, non religious ceremony can be permitted by the Superintendent
Registrar. Any music, readings, words or performances which form any part of the ceremony must be secular. The
content of the ceremony must be agreed in advance with the Superintendent Registrar who will be attending.
Any rights of copyright for music, readings etc. permitted at the ceremony are a matter for the couple and the holder
of the approval.
Annex D
A room hire fee of £500.00 will be charged for the ceremony to be performed at Weston Hall.
