Any lovely mumsnetters free to help out? We are secretly getting married (been together almost 30yrs)! on the 27th Feb, 11am, Devon reg. office, Exeter.
In the summer we will have an unofficial ceremony somewhere lovely with family but we want to do this official bit quietly on our own. But we need witnesses!! Can anyone help?

I’ve name changed for obvious reasons, but I’ve been here forever…since my now 21yr old was small!

Congratulations - 🥂 we were together 27 years before we had a civil partnership- I am sure someone on here that is local to Devon would love to help out!

Artart · 29/01/2024 20:45

Thanks Tilly (or Milly). I feel slightly silly about it all…but chuffed we’re doing it too.

If I wasn't travelling to the US for work on that day, I'd be happy to be your witness. I hope you find someone soon!

i can’t believe this might work out like this!! So grateful for offers of help. I’ll give it a day or two for people to check diaries or reconsider and then dm in order of offers and try and get it firmed up.

we are so so grateful!!!

I am also available if someone can’t do it after all. I am in Exeter.
