Hi trying to find a nice registry office to get married very cheaply next year! We are in Lancashire but could travel to tie it in with holiday, would only be small approx 6 adults 3 kids
So far found Harrogate and Kendal registry offices look nice Grin

Bakewell any good?

MimmeeBack · 16/10/2013 15:27

You can get married at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park now. Beautiful!

neverlookback · 16/10/2013 15:52

Ooh I'll have a look! I think the fees for the reg attending the sculpture park plus the parks fees will make it too costly Hmm but I'll have a peek!

Westminster?

BerstieSpotts · 16/10/2013 16:33

Warwick has lovely gardens. The room itself is a little dated though.

There's some lovely buildings in the Cotswolds. Stroud, Cheltenham, Cirencester or Moreton-in-the-marsh?

Barrow in Furness?

bluemagpie · 16/10/2013 16:44

Or Alnwick and Berwick are both lovely offices up in Northumberland.

Was going to say Harrogate but I see you've already gotit on your list. Went to a lovely wedding there a few years ago.

Choccybaby · 16/10/2013 16:54

Harrogate registry office is lovely (I got married there so might be a tad biased).

You can have lovely pictures taken outside on the stray and there are plenty of nice places for lunch afterwards if that's what you're planning

Oakham Castle?

JammyTodger · 16/10/2013 16:58

Great Malvern is lovely and set in a beautiful park with lake, etc. Good for a holiday too Smile

Wandastartup · 16/10/2013 17:01

Cheltenham registry office is not nice(60's concrete at its worst!)
LIncoln is nice and Bath.

bluemagpie · 16/10/2013 17:55

Hmm, maybe I was thinking of Gloucester or somewhere then!

tattiehowker · 16/10/2013 18:03

Glasgow's is the former Italian Consulate. All fancy with statues etc dotted around.

blueberryboybait · 16/10/2013 18:17

Bath is lovely - we got married there.

neverlookback · 16/10/2013 18:57

Wow thanks they all sound lovely! Will start to look at them all now!

Carlisle or Brighton would be my choice. Good luck!

cockington court ..Devon

makemineabacardi · 16/10/2013 19:43

I see wanda beat me to it - Cheltenham reg office is one of the worst Ive ever seen.

Definitely not Gloucester, registry office is not nice there either.

SisterMonicaJoan · 16/10/2013 19:48

I got married at Kendal Registry Office!

Loved the dusty pink on the walls and I thought it had a very "war time" vibe. The free car park outside was a big plus for the guests. My photos turned out lovely. (I just wish that on the day I took a photo of the outside but I forgot to ask the photographer or one of the guests for one) Sad

Congratulations Thanks

Heartlands in Cornwall. It's an innovation centre with an old mine turned into a museum. They have a lovely modern ceremony room, beautiful grounds and a lovely free park for the children.

GuyMartinsSideburns · 16/10/2013 20:27

We got married in Bath too Smile Bath is beautiful

Wandastartup · 16/10/2013 20:38

Glad makemineabacardi agrees-Cheltenham ought to havea nice registry office but it really doesn't!
