Celebratory Ceremonies
We offer you civil ceremonies reflecting modern choices in today’s society. These ceremonies are all personally designed to your requirements and can be held at Backhouse Hall, at any of our approved Venues or, because it is not a legally binding ceremony, at another venue (subject to approval).
Please do not hesitate to contact to us if you have any further queries, or to discuss availability and Fees.
Renewal of Vows Ceremonies
This is a special ceremony for couples who wish to renew their vows in a personal and unique way. You may have been married abroad and wish to declare your love for each other with your family and friends, or you may wish to mark a special anniversary (for example, 25 years together) or you may feel that it is the right time for you as a couple to re-affirm your love in a personal way before your friends and loved ones.
All Renewal of Vows Ceremonies are designed to be personalised and unique to you.
Naming Ceremonies
A naming ceremony is the opportunity to celebrate the birth of a new baby or to welcome a new child of any age into your family or a new relationship. More information is available on our Naming Ceremony page.
Commitment Ceremonies
A commitment ceremony is available to any couple who wish to make a public declaration of their love and commitment to each other in the presence of their friends and family.
Although it has no legal status it is often a means for a couple to still make a public declaration of their love and commitment to each other who may for whatever reason not wish to or be able to form a marriage or civil partnership.
Each ceremony is designed according to the needs of the partners and can be personalised by including promises to each other, readings and music.
