We are currently unable to undertake any ceremonies

We are currently unable to undertake any ceremonies in line with the Prime Minister’s announcement on the 10th May 2020 and recently published guidance.

The latest Government guidance includes examining how to enable slightly larger groups to gather for events such as small ceremonies, which will not be before 1 June 2020 and only if the correct conditions are met. Therefore all ceremonies booked before this date will be unable to go ahead.

 

We will not be able to undertake ceremonies until we have received further details that relate to the lifting of the restrictions on Civil Marriage and Partnership Ceremonies and in particular the Notice of Marriage, therefore we will be contacting couples in priority order if these restrictions affect your planned ceremony date.

If you need to contact us about a ceremony, please email ceremonies@gloucestershire.gov.uk.

Please continue to review this page for further updates and confirmation for when we can resume new ceremony bookings and amendments.
