When should we arrive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You should arrive around 15 to 20 minutes before the ceremony. If you are arriving separately that is fine, just stagger your arrivals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The registrars will need to speak to you privately to check the details to be entered in the register. You will also be asked to give your mother and father\u2019s full name and occupation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where can guests park?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is disabled parking at Devon House. Further parking is very limited around this venue, the nearest pay and display parking is in Osbourne Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where are the toilets?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are accessible toilets in the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What time should guests arrive and where should they go?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Guests can arrive around 20 minutes before the ceremony. We do ask that no one enters the room until advised to do so by the registrars and that noise is kept to a minimum as other ceremonies could be taking place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How many guests can we have?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can have up to 20 guests. This number must include any children or babies, photographers, or videographers you may have. Please do not try and attend with more guests than your package allows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we decorate the space?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As we do multiple ceremonies each day, we do not allow the decoration of the ceremony space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is there an aisle?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is no aisle in the ceremony room, you enter from a side door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we have music?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, you are welcome to have music, it must not be religious in any way and needs to be approved by us so all the tracks you wish to use must be stated on your preference form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We do not provide anything to play music on so the best thing for this is to bring a Bluetooth, battery operated, speaker and a have a guest operate the music on a phone from their seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we have confetti?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bio-degradable confetti is allowed in the car park only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we have drone photography?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Drone photography is not permitted within the grounds of Teignbridge Registration Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we write our own script?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All our registrars write their own ceremony scripts so they are all different and cannot be adapted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long do we have the space for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ceremonies take between 20 and 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do we need an order of service?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No, there is no need for an order of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
