Anniversary Ceremonies, Marriage Vow Renewals

Local parks, gardens and reserves are very popular for ceremonies.
However, it is wise to check whether the Local Council concerned has any regulations relating to that area.
A fee is usually payable.
Sometimes there is a flat fee; sometimes a fee is payable per person.
Some Councils will allow the ceremony, but not the reception.
Others will not allow any form of covering, such as marquees, to be erected.
Some do not require a fee for ceremonies during the week, whilst others have a fee irrespective of the day.
It may also be wise to check whether the fee enables you to actually reserve a spot.
It may not.
