This is the legal preliminary to your marriage and must be given by appointment. You must be either British or a member of the EEA to give notice at the Register Office (if you are not, please contact us for advice). Each party to the marriage will need to attend the Register Office in person, where they have lived for at least the last nine days, and give notice of their intention to marry. This is the case even when you both live in the same registration district - https://www.telford.gov.uk/info/20091/marriage_and_civil_par...
