FLOWERS 51 PLANNING SOS RAISE A GLASS The most valuable advice is not to settle for something that doesn’t meet your vision. It’s paramount to keep your theme in mind and to have your suppliers work to make your wedding dreams a reality. There’s a supplier out there for any idea you can dream up, and Your East Midlands Wedding is the perfect place to start when looking for the best fit. When booking a bar service, speak to your supplier over the phone or in-person to get your ideas heard. If you want your special holiday cocktail to be served as a welcome drink, then have them make it a reality. A good supplier is flexible and will work with you to create a bespoke package that enhances and complements the beauty of your special day! Keep your supplier roster as tight as possible. If one company can provide multiple services and meet your expectations, then go with them. Find a mobile bar company that can care for everything like us at The Occasion Bar Co if you want a full bar, welcome drinks, table drinks and cocktails.

They might wish to use a venue or location not licensed for marriage, require a mixed faith wedding which churches generally can’t accommodate or desire a personalised wedding ceremony. Whatever the reason, those who opt for celebrant-led weddings must arrange to register their marriage until celebrants in England/Wales are permitted to solemnise a union legally. To do this, contact your register office and request a statutory marriage service just before your wedding. The government sets the fee for this, which is presently £46, plus £35 each to give notice. It takes five to 10 minutes and comprises only the legal aspects of getting married, with identity and document checks to declare you're free to and contract to marry. Most couples save their personalised vows and the exchange of rings for their celebrant-led wedding celebration. Some register offices offer statutory slots each week or have dedicated days each month. Contact a few register offices nearby to see where is better for you and if there’s a waiting list. Aside from the registrars, only the couple and two witnesses may attend – it’s also known as a two-by-two. Afterwards, you can have the bespoke celebrant-led wedding you’re dreaming of!
