Booking a Registrar

Whichever approved venue you choose for your ceremony, you will need to have a Registrar attend to conduct the ceremony. Once you have made a provisional booking with the venue, please contact with the Register Office as soon as possible to check availability so your chosen date and time can be secured.

To book a Registrar email both parties names, telephone number and email address together with the ceremony date/time and the name of the approved venue toregister.office@redbridge.gov.uk

A registrar will call you back Monday to Friday 9 - 4pm to book your ceremony and take payment.
