Civil partnerships

10/2/2019

0 Comments

 
Recent changes announced by the Government will open the door for all couples to consider a Civil Partnership as an option to marriage.

The key differences in a civil partnership to a marriage are:
  • Couples joined through a civil partnership cannot call themselves ‘married’ for legal purposes.  However they are treated as "married" for tax and legal matters.
  • Civil partnerships must be dissolved through the courts but adultery is not recognised in civil partnerships and is therefore not considered as grounds for divorce. 
  • Civil partnership certificates include names of the parents of both participants, whereas marriage certificates require only the names of the fathers of the couple

    Choosing a Celebrant to help you create that special ceremony is an important step towards making your occasion a really memorable one.  Why not take advantage of the free initial meeting I offer ?  I believe it is important  to meet informally to discuss your ideas and what I can offer.  Meeting also gives us an opportunity to explore the type of ceremony that would best suit your needs.
