Your FAQ

Question: If the bride and/or groom are under 18years of age, do they need parental consent to get married?

Answer: Parental consent is needed if either party is under 18 years of age. A Form 55 (CP55 for Civil Partnerships)can be obtained from the Register Office and should be completed by both parents. Further instructions are found on the form or from the Register Office. The completed form should then be taken to the Register Office and handed into the Superintendent Registrar when giving notice.
