Hi, I am wondering if someone could help me out with any advice / experience of the same position I am in.
We both live in Hertfordshire, and attend a Catholic Church there regularly. However, we are getting married in a Catholic Church in Berkshire.
I have spoken this morning to my District Registration office, who have said that as both of us are non-residents of Berkshire, and the Church is not our normal place of worship; one or either of us must move to Berkshire for seven consecutive nights, and have something to prove that we have done so, and then on the eighth day whomever has stayed in Berkshire, can register the marriage there.
This is a bit concerning! Am I going to have to move to a different county and stay in a hotel for a week just to get married in the Church there?! I have family who live in Berkshire whom I am sure I can get a letter from saying we have stayed with them for a week but the lady on the phone didn't know if this was enough.
Can any one shed any light or help at all with any experiences?
Thanks so much, Hannah
