\n\t\t\t\t\u2018I joined the Oban Registration Team in late 2020 and have fully completed my Birth and Marriage\/Civil Partnership training and have now registered numerous births and have conducted several office weddings. It is a very enjoyable feeling to advise and assist in playing a small part in these happy life milestones for the parties involved, and I have met some lovely people along the way.\u2019\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We had a great informal and relaxed wedding ceremony with Alan. Just what we were after. We asked for two witnesses as we had told no one and wanted our marriage to be a suprise for family and friends.<\/p>

Alan organised the witnesses and helped me with the required paperwork before the day. I contacted Mairi online and met her for a cuppa before the wedding to discuss ideas etc. She is a lovely lady and puts you at ease as soon as you meet her. Our special day was just as we wanted, we were relaxed and laughing from the moment we arrived.<\/p>

I would highly recommend this venue and ofcourse Alan and Mairi.<\/p>
