Hi


Please can someone help me as google is giving me 10 different answers!
- how many witnesses can you have - do they need to do anything legality wise ie go to town hall with you before hand or bring their legal ID?
Thank you!

    Two witnesses. I don’t think they have to give ID, I don’t remember doing so when I was a witness for my brother.

    2 witnesses and you need to submit there names prior to the ceremony. I dont think they need ID but you have now got me thinking! Your registrar office should be able to help, I would probably ask them to be safe

    Depends on the registration package you go for - if it's literally just the legalities you're only allowed two in the room. If you pay for more of a ceremony (simple or otherwise), still two witnesses but then the venue usually allows a few more people.

    Thank you. We’ve booked a registrar as we’re having the ceremony in a hotel but 2 is fine. Just wanted to make sure both the best man and MOH could do it.

    Thank you! I tried to ring council the other day but I was on hold for 50 odd mins before it cut off!
