What should be on a getting married checklist in the UK?

A Sorted Team Answered by

Start by setting a budget, choosing a date and venue, and booking the ceremony with a register office, approved venue or religious officiant. Give notice of your intention to marry in good time and check the required documents, which can vary according to your circumstances; GOV.UK provides the current guidance. Arrange suppliers such as catering, photography, flowers, music and transport, and confirm guest details, witnesses and the running order. After the wedding, update relevant organisations about any name or address changes, including your bank, employer, insurer and driving licence provider.
