Apply to become an approved venue
You can apply to Devon Registration Service to register a room or rooms in your property to be approved under the Marriage Act 1994 and the Civil Partnership Act 2004.
Before you start
- Your proposed venue must be a permanent structure and it should not have any religious connections, all civil marriage and civil partnership ceremonies are secular rather than religious

- After you have submitted your application the property is inspected by a member of the service
- Provided that there are no objections following a period of public consultation (listed on our website), a licence for three years will be issued
