Civil Marriages
The Old England has been approved by Cumbria County Council for the solemnisation of Marriages & Renewal of Vows.
The approved rooms are:
- The Vinand Suite - can seat up to 100
Once you have decided on a date for your wedding and we have the availability, you then need to contact the Superintendent Registrar:-
Mrs S Oliver
County Office
Kendal
Telephone: 01539 773567
Mrs Oliver advises you regarding availability and the arrangements to be made for the marriage to take place on our premises. She will also inform you on the fees for the attendance of registration staff, which are payable directly to the Superintendent Registrar on the day. Only civil, non-religious ceremonies are permitted by the Superintendent Registrar and this means that any music, reading or words of performance which form part of the ceremony must be secular and the content of the ceremony must be agreed in advance with the Superintendent Registrar who will be attending the ceremony.
