Artington House, then Suite 3 on two days
Guildford Register Office at Artington House, 42 Portsmouth Road, GU2 4DZ, closes on 1 November 2026. Ceremony bookings there are accepted up to 31 October 2026. A booking already made continues as planned. From 6 September 2026 to 29 March 2027, register-office ceremonies for 2 to 18 guests move to Suite 3 at the Guildford Harbour Hotel, on Sundays and Mondays only, under the Windsor option. Other rooms at that hotel sit under the Sandringham option.
For 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027 the Windsor option, up to 18 guests at the register office or in Suite 3, is £365 on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, £550 on Thursday, and £715 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Inside the hotel window, Suite 3 is £365 on Monday and £540 on Sunday. The guest maximum includes babies, children, two witnesses and an interpreter if you need one. Certificates are £12.50 extra. The ceremony fee includes a non-refundable administration fee of £100 and is paid in full at booking. An amendment after the 14-day cooling-off period is £66 from 1 April 2026. Portsmouth Road and the Harbour Hotel are different doors, and Sunday at the hotel is £540 rather than the £715 Sunday figure on the main Windsor row. The A3 at Portsmouth Road on a Monday morning needs a longer lead-in than a Sunday at the hotel. Send the building, the suite if you are at the hotel, and who is inside the 18.
Until when can we book Artington House?
Ceremony bookings are accepted up to 31 October 2026. The building closes on 1 November 2026. Existing bookings continue. A later date should be sent to the building on the new confirmation, which may be Suite 3.
Where do the 2 to 18 guest ceremonies go after Artington House?
From 6 September 2026 to 29 March 2027 they are in Suite 3 at the Harbour Hotel, Sundays and Mondays only. Name Suite 3. Other rooms in the hotel are the Sandringham option, which is a different booking.
What is the Monday Windsor price?
£365 on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday for 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. Thursday is £550. Friday, Saturday and Sunday on the main row are £715. Suite 3 on a Sunday in the hotel window is £540, and on a Monday it is £365.
Who counts toward the 18 Windsor guests?
Babies, children, the two witnesses and an interpreter. Certificates are £12.50 each and sit outside the ceremony fee. If you are close to 18, ask the office about space for a camera before you promise photographs inside the room.
Why does a Monday at Portsmouth Road need longer?
A3 traffic at that door on a Monday morning is slower than a Sunday arrival at the hotel. Write an earlier photographer arrival for Artington House. A Sunday in Suite 3 needs its own lead-in, and its own £540 fee in the hotel window.
