Here's a challange. Getting married for the second and I can't find a venue. My boyfriend and myself just want to get married with my two teenage children as witnesses and no other guests. Got married at the Grange the first time so thats out of the question and although Anne of Cleves is our first choice I almost passed out when I found out the cost, anyone have any idea?

Yes we had thought of that, but the cost for 4!!!!! Not sure I want my children to come back with a gambling habit either.

Why not get married outside Wenban-Smith? The smell of sawn timber is almost as intoxicating as champagne.

Can ships captains still marry people at sea? A day trip to France shouldnt cost much and all the reception drinks would be duty free.
Sorted!

Why not get married at one of the second hand shops seeing as you are second hand.

Thank you Chav you made me roar with laughter and my boyfriend thinks it would be appropriate as I'm always purchasing things from them. Was thinking of somewhere a little more romantic though.

You can only get married at a venue that has a licence for marriages. Outside of the registry office it is quite expensive. Lewes Castle is licensed and might make an interesting venue.

Licence to get married Jonathan? Nooooooo. Really?
you obviously can't see when people are typing tongue in cheek comments.
Castle is VERY VERY Expensive. AND ITS COLD, theres no central heating in that building.
On the sensible side you can hire a marquee to put up in the grounds if its going to be cold or wet. BUT YOU HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW 4 DAYS BEFORE, one for Michael Fish to be involved with. It'll cost you more as well.

can you get married with your tongue in your cheek, how much does it cost at the castle? I liked the look of Michelham priory myself and the archaeological society need the money.

I got married in the Town Hall (council chambers bit) and would happily do so again - which is big of me!

The castle cost almost a £1000 to use for weddings! I am starting to think that the Town Hall may be the nicest option. Having lived in Lewes all my life I am keen to stay in the town. I do think it would be nice if those that had a say in the cost of Anne of Cleves and the castle for weddings gave a reduction for us Lewes folk.
