Wedding Guidance

 

Guidance for those who wish to marry on the approved premises of the
White Mare Hotel

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.

Whitehaven Registry Office, 01946 852690

Without the presence of the Superintendent Registrar and 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 advanced booking with the Superintendent Registrar for their attendance at their proposed marriage as soon as a booking can be accepted. A fee for this attendance will be payable before the Ceremony.

Notice must be given in person, by each party to the marriage, and is valid for only twelve months, from the day that the notice of intention is given.

The couple should be advised that only a civil, non-religious ceremony can be permitted by the Superintendent Registrar. Any music, reading, words, poetry or performance which form part of the ceremony must be agreed in advance with the Superintendent Registrar who will be attending the ceremony.
