Here’s a secret not everyone knows: they also offer free wedding ceremonies on certain days of the year. Yes, free. As in, £0. You still pay for the notice, but the ceremony itself? Free. That’s the kind of deal that makes your grandma proud.
And they have a registry of stillbirths – a quiet, respectful service that acknowledges those heartbreaking moments. It’s handled with so much compassion it’ll make you tear up just reading the leaflet. These people are gems.
Location, location, location
After you’ve signed the register, you can step outside and be in the middle of Bath. Fancy a photo by the Pulteney Weir? Done. Want to toast with a glass of bubbly at The Pump Room? It’s a two-minute walk. You’re marrying convenience and beauty.
Just don’t wear stilettos on the cobbled streets. Or do, and then Instagram your graceful fall. Your choice.
