Ghostrider Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 We went to book our wedding today, and were told we have to go back, for each of us to have a 45 minute interview - whats that about Could understand it if one of us was not english, but we were both born in this country & hold british passports. Does anyone know of any other reason why they do this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Talker Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I believe it's to check the documentation, GR. When I married my ex hub, nearly 20 years ago, they asked to see all sorts of proof of residence, proof of ID etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 my daughter & her other half had to do it mate its normal now ? its just red tape because of all the scams etc. Thats exactly what we thought. To have the ceremony at the venue we want is costing us about £450 - if it was in the registry office it would be less than £150 ! And then we have to pay the venue £150 if we want to use our own dj instead of theirs - what a con Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandad.Malky Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 The Registrar So what happens these days if you get married in church, I seem to remember both of us having to go and see the vicar for a talk about the virtues of marriage but I wouldn’t have called it an “interview” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
