Council Ceremony Fees

The £42 pounds to give notice at the council register office is standard. You have to give notice wherever you are having your wedding

The £50 booking fee is part of the charges for the registrar to come out to your venue. The full cost varies in different areas, but your council should have a list of their fees and charges.

But if you are having a church wedding the priest is very often a registrar of marriages and you may well not need to pay a Council one to come out.
Contact the priest at the church you would like to get married in and they should be able to explain what you need to do and what the charges are.
I hope this helps
