Apply for a copy marriage certificate
We can only provide marriage certificate copies for marriages that took place in Rutland.
To find an entry we will need:
- the full names of the people who got married
- the date and place of the marriage
We can issue as many certified copies as you need & offer two certificate services:
Standard Service: £12.50 per copy. Certificates are processed within 15 working days.
Priority Service: £38.50 per copy. Certificates are processed on or before next working day, where payment is received by 3pm.
If the ceremony took place outside Rutland, you'll need to contact the council for that area. If you don't know the district, you can apply to the General Register Office.
How to order
Please email us with the details above: registrars@rutland.gov.uk. We will then provide a link & reference number for you to make payment online.
Alternatively, you can call us on 01572 758 370 and we'll take the details, and debit/credit card payment, over the phone - you may need to leave us a voicemail, but we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
For marriages registered before 1837
Civil registration began on 1st July 1837. Before this date, the church kept records for births, deaths & marriages.
