how do i get a replacement marriage certificate??

zoesmummy_2006

Just typical innit, have filed for divorce and solicitor said theyll need marriage certificate at some point. Well ive taken it down with various paperwork twice now and they havent needed it then. So ive put it away safe, now solicitor has asked for it asap......and i cant find it!!!! Have pulled house apart last few days looking for it and honestly cant find it.
Does anyone know how i go about getting another, solicitor said something about going to the office where we booked the dates etc. Is that right? And how long roughly would a replacement take?? Thanks xxx

Have a look here...seems straightforward enough to order one and takes 4-15 days depending if you have some reference number

I did exactly that, and believe it or not I found the original half an hour after i bought and paid for a replacement on line.:mad::mad:

So keep looking for now.

Ellay thanks for that link, gonna ring my local office in morn, see what they say, might save me an hour on bus to go in person.

Mckneff im positive that will happen to me, but tbh i want this divorce to go through asap so will happily pay whatever to get it asap. Solicitor says before 3rd march!!! Eek!

Wow...I hope that's a mis-type or you need a great solicitor to go time travelling :rotfl:

Nope no miss type! Tell me bout it!! The link you gave me said something bout 4-15 days so theres still a (slim lol) chance and thats what im focusing on. Plus i wont stop searching in meantime, just dont help that my landlord has put house i rent on market so im trying to stay as tidy as possible (with 2 kids!) Xx

Tidy house, tell me about it.
Im just at the start of having a new kitchen fitted in the morning. The contents of my kitchen are spread all over the house,
The living room has an old wardrobe set over to 4 compartment plastic towers, where the kettle etc. is being utilised.
The frdge freezer is in the sitting room. The new kitchen is stacked up in the dining end of the kitchen. I wish I could time travel for just about a week. lol

Oooohh i feel for you, the thought of moving and starting again for 2nd time in year n half fills me with dread! Itd gonna be a long week, but keep thinking bout how gorgeous your kitchen is gonna look at the end!!! That and few bottles wine to help you through

Registry office, apply to the registrar, church wedding contact the vicar. There is a standard fee for a copy, alhough I can't remember what it is. If any problem eg vicar on holiday, one of the church wardens should be able to help.

Can the church give you a replacement certificate? I've never heard of that.

If you live in the area that you married in, your local records office will be the best option. If not, ellay864's link is the way to go.

Just a thought if you do need it so quick...some years ago I lost my birth certficate and had to get a replacement. I went down to the local register office where my birth had been registered (luckily I was still in the same area) and they did it for me there and then...if you can get that it might make that hour's bus ride worth it
