Previously, marriage registration took place in the registry office at the place of residence of the bride or groom. But a few decades ago, young people were allowed to independently decide on the location of the wedding. You can choose a registry office in which one of the most important events of your life together takes place, according to several parameters.
Instruction manual
1
You can choose a registry office on a territorial basis. Many couples still consider the most convenient registry office, in which you do not need to travel for several hours in a city in traffic jams. Some people choose a wedding venue so that it is located near the cafe, where after the official part of the event, a wedding banquet will be held. This saves on transportation costs.
2
Someone is trying to choose the most beautiful registry office, going around all the registry offices of the city. Usually, employees of the institution do not interfere with future newlyweds and, upon urgent requests, show the wedding venue from the inside.
3
If you have already decided on the date of the celebration, then the choice of the registry office should be done taking into account this moment. Often there is a queue for marriage registration, so they can not paint you on the desired day anywhere. But this problem can be avoided if you apply for marriage two months before the expected date.
4
If you plan to invite a lot of guests to the celebration, you should find out in advance which registry office agrees to accept their maximum number. In most cases, this is determined by the size of the hall. Call all the registry offices of your city and find out how many invitees are allowed in each of them.

Some registry offices offer exit registration of marriage. Unfortunately, in most cases it can only be officially held at a medical institution, where one of the spouses is located due to a serious illness. In 2006, the city authorities allowed to register marriage in some cultural institutions, for example, in the Ostankino Museum-Estate or in the Tsaritsyno Museum-Reserve. But if you are far from the capital or for some other reasons cannot conduct field registration officially, you can contact the companies involved in organizing the holidays, and marriage registration will be performed for you in the chosen place. But since this type of marriage does not have legal force, you will first have to "quietly" sign in any of the registry offices.
