Ceremony fees

The fee you will be charged for your ceremony will be for the year in which it takes place and not the year of booking. For marriages and civil partnerships, the charges include one certificate; additional certificates will be charged at £11 each.

Please note: All payments now need to be made via our Occasions Telford website.
