So now every Humanist Celebrant in Ireland as well as Scotland will hold a Register and be able to include a legal marriage certificate in the personal, unique wedding ceremony created specially for each couple.

Please do join the British Humanist Association’s campaign to make our personal ceremonies for you legal in England and Wales too.

Until then, if you want to make your wedding day extra special, by creating your own ceremony as part of your reception and party, indoors or outdoors, in the evening as well as during the day, you do need to legally register your marriage at your local Council offices a day or so before your wedding day.  But thousands of couples know that planning their wedding day around their unique humanist wedding ceremony is still utterly worthwhile – please see independent reviews at the bottom of this listing:
