Getting married in Wales

Wales shares marriage law with England, and same-sex couples have married here since March 2014. Castles, coastline and mountains make it a beautiful place to say yes.

Giving notice

You’ll each give notice at your local register office after living in that district for at least 7 days. Notice must be given at least 29 days before your ceremony, and you need to marry within 12 months. Your ceremony can be in Welsh, English or both.

Humanist and celebrant-led weddings

In England and Wales, a humanist ceremony isn’t a legal wedding yet. The government’s consultation on marriage law reform closed in September 2026, with new legislation promised “when parliamentary time allows.” For now, many couples pair a quick register office signing with the ceremony they really want.
