Our Registration Marriage ceremonies available under our Registration are for those who do not require a religious content, and are conducted by a Registrar. We are able to offer - Civil Marriage and Civil Partnership ceremonies. Naming Ceremonies. Re-Affirmation of Vows. Ceremonies take place in one of our Norwegian coaches, re-arranged for the occasion. This provides a dignified and attractive setting. Facilities available We are able to offer some or all of the following facilities: The Ceremony room can accommodate approximately 70 persons seated. Attractive curtains provide a pleasant backdrop for the Registrar, who sits behind a white linen-covered table. A red carpet is provided from the entrance leading to the table. The room is suitable for disabled access and the layout can be arranged to suit wheel chairs. The cost of the Ceremony Room is £500 per occasion. A flower service is available for decorating both the room and its entrance, and for the bride and groom. A photographer can also be arranged who is familiar with our site. He is able to produce stills, a CD collage album with music and a video. |
