Marriage Ceremonies in Scotland - Legal Requirements

As well as booking a place, date and time for your ceremony, you should be aware that, whether you intend to have a humanist marriage ceremony officiated by an approved celebrant or a civil ceremony officiated by a registar, you must, by law, submit marriage notice forms with the associated documents and pay the statutory fee to the registrar in whose district you intend to be married.
