Ceremonies

Ceremonies are currently permitted but with restricted guest numbers.

For more information visit the Kentish Ceremonies website.

Citizenship ceremonies

Small ceremonies are currently taking place.

You would normally expect to book your ceremony within 3 months of being sent an official invitation from the Home Office. Due to COVID-19 this has been delayed till 6 months.

If you are successful in your application, the Home Office will send you a confirmation letter. The letter states that you must wait until you receive a formal invitation before booking your ceremony.

If you have not yet received the official ceremony invitation please wait and do not contact us. Once we have received the notification from the Home Office, we will be able to book your ceremony.
