    In Lincolnshire you can get married from £110.50 to £520.50 depending on where you get married, what day you want to get married on, what type of service you want (enhanced/standard), when you book it (you can't pre-book standard ceremonies over a year in advance), etc. (I haven't included church weddings here cause I don't know all there fees - although the council website does say how much for a registrar to attend - £80).

    We have paid £25 to book the registrar on the date that we want at the venue we want.
    We have yet to pay £33.50 each to declare our intention to get married and we have to pay £320 two months before the day.

    £410 for a late afternoon Wedding in Oxfordshire at a Registry Office. £33.50 each for notice plus the cost of the certificate.

    We don't need to pay until 12 weeks before.
