A renewal of vows is a special ceremony for couples who have already contracted a marriage or civil partnership and who wish to celebrate and renew their vows with family and friends, and to celebrate their commitment for a second time. ​ People choose to renew their vows for many reasons, they may have reached a milestone anniversary or simply want to make vows of commitment again in front of family and friends. ​ Renewing vows gives family and friends the chance to celebrate your commitment if you got married abroad with only a few people present, or maybe you just didn’t have the day you would have really liked. ​ Whatever the reason, we can help you plan a ceremony that reflects your journey as a couple and include personal vows, re-dedicating of rings, music and readings. You can also choose to include children or grandchildren in your ceremony if you wish. ​ Renewal of vows ceremonies can be held within one of our Council Ceremony Rooms , at an Approved Venue or at a venue of your choice with prior agreement. ​ Click here to book a renewal of vows ceremony . ​ Please note that renewal of vows ceremonies have no legal status.

The Registration Service reserve the right to make the final decision on any wording used, and will not accept liability for any omission, which may be caused by reasons beyond its control. ​ We will allocate personnel to attend your ceremony and reserve the right to substitute other experienced and qualified staff in case of sickness or other unforeseen circumstances on the day. ​ Registration Staff will decide on the day if a ceremony can be held outside at a venue with an approved outside structure and their decision is final. ​ For fire, safety and comfort the number of guests (which includes all babies and children) must not exceed the capacity of the room. Additional guests over this number will be excluded from the ceremony. Please liaise with your venue to ensure that the number they are licensed for is not exceeded; this will save any disappointment on your special day. ​ Liability ​ We do not accept liability for: Ceremonies ​ The failure of any music system provided by the venue, yourself or a third party Any delay or loss caused by your late or non-arrival at the due date and time Any loss caused by a request from you or your representatives to delay the ceremony Any loss caused by a request from you or your representatives to cancel a ceremony on the day following the decision of Registration Staff to move the ceremony inside as set out below under ‘Outside Ceremonies’ Approval of the venue is granted only in connection with the provision of ceremonies. We cannot accept liability for the failure or neglect on behalf of the venue, for any agreement between you and the venue for the use or provision of any services and/or facilities.

We reserve the right to take appropriate action to ensure other ceremonies our staff need to attend are delivered at the agreed time.

An additional charge of £40.00 will be applied to your booking and is a non-refundable payment. A member of the Ceremonies Team will contact you to complete a checklist before the ceremony date, animals will not be permitted to attend a ceremony without this. ​ Outside ceremonies ​ Many couples wish to have their ceremony outside and we will do everything we can to ensure your ceremony lives up to your expectations. Outdoor ceremonies can take place at our approved venues during the period 1 March to 31 October. ​ If you wish to hold your civil ceremony outside at an approved venue, you have two options: A permanent licensed outdoor structure, such as a pavilion or summerhouse. This must be included in the venue’s license granted by Cambridgeshire County Council. The law states that civil ceremonies must be performed with all parties within the licensed structure. ‘All parties’ mean the couple, the two Registration Officers, the two witnesses. In addition, there must be a table large enough to complete the legal paperwork. An area of land within the boundaries of a licensed venue, such as a lawn or courtyard. This area must have been approved by the Superintendent Registrar and fulfil the requirement to be ‘seemly and dignified’. It is possible to erect a temporary structure, for example a marquee or gazebo, on this approved area of land. Please consult with your chosen venue directly to determine which options for outside ceremonies they are able to offer. ​ The venue must also provide alternative licenced facilities set up for a ceremony inside in case the conditions do not allow the ceremony to take place outside. If the inside room is not large enough for all the guests, the couple will have to decide who joins them in the room. Our conditions for a ceremony being moved inside include but are not exclusive to: Rain, damp conditions or the likelihood of showers and snow or intense heat and sunshine. Unsuitable conditions for our staff to wear registration service ceremony attire, normally a business suit. An example would be if a coat was needed due to cold weather. The paperwork being put at risk by damp conditions, winds, rain or snow as the schedule is a unique document that cannot be replicated and must be protected at all times. Your guests being unable to hear the ceremony and at risk of being uncomfortable. Once the ceremony has started, it cannot be moved. However, please do not let your day be spoilt if your ceremony cannot take place outside. The indoor alternative will be just as lovely - consider it a bonus if the weather is kind to you. The alternative room must be licensed by Cambridgeshire County Council and set up ready for the ceremony to be moved. The decision as to where your ceremony will take place is made by the Registration Staff present on the day and their decision is final. ​ You agree to the above conditions and that the final decision on where the ceremony takes place is the responsibility of the Registration Staff in attendance on the day. You agree to use the alternative indoor licensed ceremony room if the ceremony cannot take place outside and to decide who comes into the room if the capacity is below our guest numbers. If you do not accept these terms and conditions, the ceremony will be held inside. ​ Customer Contact ​ It is your responsibility to ensure that you update us in writing (including e-mail) with any changes to relevant contact details, such as phone numbers and e-mail addresses. ​ Most questions can be answered by reading all the pages on our website at cambridgeshireceremonies.co.uk . If there are still further queries the quickest way to contact us is via cambridgeshireceremonies.co.uk/contact , or you can call the Contact Centre on 0345 045 1363. ​ We take customer complaints very seriously.
