What is a Civil Partnership?
Often referred to as a ‘gay wedding’, a Civil Partnership is a legal union between two people of the same sex formed when they register as civil partners of each other. Once a civil partnership occurs between a gay couple, they are entitled to receive similar treatment and benefits as that of any married couple. On December 5 2005, The Civil Partnership Act 2004 came into effect in the UK, giving couples of the same sex legal recognition of their relationship. Any one who enters into a Civil Partnership obtains the new legal status of ‘Civil Partner’ instead of the traditional husband and wife status.
Why would YOU need the help of The Civil Partnership Planner?
Planning and organising a Civil Partnership ceremony can be a wonderful and exciting time, but it can also be daunting, time-consuming and stressful. There are so many different stages to plan, items to buy and suppliers to source that it is often difficult to know where to begin.
On average, 250 hours are spent on planning and organising a Civil Partnership ceremony or wedding! The right planning and organising is essential to make it a day to be remembered for all the right reasons.
Even if you have the time, perhaps you’ve never actually attended a Civil Partnership ceremony or you don’t know what’s involved. What is the protocol for the big day? How does it differ from a ‘traditional’ wedding? Where can you hold your Civil Partnership ceremony? Are there any restrictions? What are all your options?
