If you have already married but wish to celebrate the
occasion with friends and family or prefer to celebrate your
commitment but without the legal side, we also offer a range
of non-legally binding ceremonies to suit you – a wedding
celebration ceremony, a renewal of vows, or a commitment
ceremony. Likewise, if you wish to celebrate in a venue that
isn’t licensed, we can lead your celebration ceremony,
perhaps even combining it with a visit to the Register Office
to tie the legal knot before.
Getting Married
Whether your wedding is a huge celebration, a simple
ceremony to put a seal on a long-term relationship, a legal
marriage before you head abroad for a larger ceremony, or
you are having a religious blessing later – we will make sure
your ceremony suits you as a couple.
The first step is to decide where you want your marriage
ceremony to take place. The Royal Borough of Windsor and
Maidenhead has a Ceremony Room at the Register Office in
the Town Hall in Maidenhead, plus many licensed venues to

We take bookings up the end of the next financial year and

several teams of registrars working, especially on popular
days and times of the year, so will always do our best to
accommodate your chosen date and time. Do of course get

website or visit the government website for more information.
Before getting married, you will both be required to give
notice of your intent to marry at your local register office
and more information about this can be found in this
brochure on page 13 and 14.
