Marriage and civil partnership ceremonies

We have two rooms at our Registration Services Building in Oakham

For legal purposes, these are entirely separate venues:

• the Register Office - seats the couple and two witnesses for a simple, legal ceremony (available Monday to Wednesday, 10am to 2pm, excluding bank holidays)
• Catmose Cottage - an elegant, Georgian drawing room which seats the couple and up to 40 guests, plus use of our walled garden for photographs after our ceremony (available Monday to Sunday)
