How much does a registry office wedding cost in Derby?

Derby register office sets its own fees, which depend on the ceremony room, whether you pick a weekday or weekend, and how many guests you invite. You will also need to pay the notice fee for each of you, which is separate from the ceremony fee. To get accurate prices, phone or visit the Derby register office, or check the Derby City Council website. They will explain the different packages, from a simple ceremony with just witnesses to a larger celebration. Notice must be given at least 28 days before the wedding, and you both need to have lived in the Derby district for at least seven days. The ceremony is civil, so no religious content like hymns or prayers is allowed. You can have poems, songs and non-religious readings if the registrar approves. You need two witnesses aged 16 or over. The marriage is recorded in a schedule signed on the day, not a register book. If you want a religious ceremony too, that is separate and only legally binding if it takes place in a registered religious building with an authorised person present.
