Purpose

The Registration Service is a statutory
service with responsibility for registering births, deaths and
marriages within the county.
Non-statutory fees apply to the conducting of a marriage or civil
ceremony at either a Register Office or approved venue, and the
licensing of approved venues. These increases do not include the
statutory register office ceremonies which the General Register
Office set at £46.
Fees for the conducting of a ceremony were last reviewed and
increased in May 2023, covering the period up to the end of 2025.
Fees for 2026 need to be agreed along with increases in some other
administrative fees.
