Booking our ceremony room

Wokingham Ceremony Room

We have a ceremony room which is available for booking 7 days a week. The room can accommodate a couple and a maximum of 26 guests.

Photos and video recording

Before the ceremony, the Superintendent Registrar will discuss arrangements with the photographer/ video operator.

We are happy for a professional photographer or 1 designated guest to take pictures during the ceremony as long as it's not disruptive. Using a flash is discouraged. Any group photography is done at the end of the ceremony. Once the photographer is finished the rest of the guests can take photos.

Video recording of the ceremony will be permitted as long as it's not disruptive.

Music and flowers

You can provide your own flowers which can be delivered on the day or use the silk flower pedestals provided.

If you would like music for your ceremony you can bring your own music device to be operated by a guest.
