A commitment ceremony is a meaningful and dignified way to celebrate your love and devotion — without the legal formalities of marriage or civil partnership. It’s open to adult couples of any gender who wish to affirm their bond in a way that feels personal, heartfelt, and true to them.

Whether shared with family and friends or held privately, this ceremony is about making a public declaration of lifelong commitment, love, and dedication between two people.

To help you shape your ceremony, Civil Weddings will provide a flexible outline and a range of planning options — from wording and readings to symbolic gestures like exchanging rings or gifts.

Think about who you’d like to invite, the promises you’ll make to one another, and the atmosphere you want to create. The ceremony will be tailored to your wishes, making it a truly special occasion.

Please note: this ceremony does not carry any legal rights or responsibilities.
