Start your marriage or civil partnership with a ceremony from Bracknell Forest Registrars.
We offer a range of options for all budgets, from our beautiful Haversham Room to our intimate Ceremonies Room.
Explore all our options and give us a call to discuss your wedding.
Set within South Hill Park, the Haversham is Bracknell Forest’s large ceremonies’ room.
It is the ideal venue for your marriage or civil partnership ceremony with all your friends and family there to celebrate with you.
Located at Time Square, the Ceremonies Room is suitable for up to 35 guests (including children and babies) plus the couple.
With a fresh, modern look, this room is perfectly suited to a private ceremony.
There are a range of venues in Bracknell Forest suitable for civil ceremonies.
The ceremony is such a significant part of your day, and a little time spent planning with the registrars can make it very special.
It is important to us that both you and your guests enjoy the ceremony.
You may wish to include a reading, or piece of poetry, or you may like to make personal vows to each other in addition to the legal vows required. It should be noted that any enhancements must not have any religious content, and must be approved by the registrar prior to the day.
The bride, groom, civil partner, or both partners can invite someone special to give them away during the ceremony.
Further personalisation is possible if you choose to see the registrar separately prior to the ceremony. This enables one or both parties to be escorted into the ceremonial room, by a relative and attendants or a friend, without having been seen by the assembled party.
The bride or couple can enter to the traditional bridal march, or to a favourite piece of music. It is also possible to add a formal exit following the ceremony, again to traditional music or something special to the couple. If you are looking for any particular requirements, please ask the Registrar team.
We understand that your day is very special and you may want to record it. A video camera may be used during the ceremony with the approval of the registrar.
We do request that still photographs are not taken by guests during the actual ceremony, but every opportunity is given afterwards for guests to take pictures.
