Ceremonies
In line with the national lockdown, wedding and civil partnership ceremonies should not take place except in exceptional circumstances, for example an urgent marriage where one of those getting married is seriously ill and not expected to recover, or about to undergo life-threatening surgery. If you have any queries regarding weddings or civil partnerships, please contact us on 03000 266 000 or email theceremonyteam@durham.gov.uk. All naming ceremonies and non-statutory celebrations are suspended. You can order birth, death, marriage and civil partnership certificates online or over the phone.
