Three rooms in the old town hall
Torfaen County Borough Council says the register office is in the old town hall in the centre of Pontypool. The Hanbury Suite holds up to 50 guests. The Park Suite seats up to 10. The register office itself is for the two of you and two witnesses. The fees page prices the register office on Tuesday only at £62, plus a £12.50 certificate. The large ceremony room is £270 Monday to Friday, and the small room is £165, again plus the certificate. Saturday is £295 for the large room and £210 for the small one. The fee includes use of the room and the registrar.
Ten seats, fifty seats, and two witnesses are three different jobs. Tell the photographer which room is booked and the start time. A Tuesday register-office signing is often covered in one or two hours, ceremony plus a few pictures outside the old town hall. The Hanbury Suite needs longer if you want groups of up to 50. The Park Suite sits between them, so say whether you want a full group of ten or a short set at the door.
A venue elsewhere in Torfaen
An approved premise elsewhere in the county borough is £400 Monday to Friday for the registrars, and the venue charges its own hire. Name that building if the ceremony is not in the old town hall. If the meal is a second stop, or if you want pictures at both the hall and the venue, the travel belongs in the quote. Send the hours you want in each place.
Who is in the Tuesday register office, and how long are the pictures?
The room is the two of you and two witnesses, at £62 on Tuesday only, plus £12.50 for the certificate. Say if the photographer is one of the witnesses or will take pictures outside the old town hall. One or two hours often covers that.
How should we brief the Hanbury Suite?
It holds up to 50 guests. Monday to Friday is £270 plus the £12.50 certificate. Saturday is £295 plus the certificate. Tell them the day and how long you want for group pictures. Fifty guests is not a two-witness slot.
What pictures fit the Park Suite?
It seats up to 10. The fee is £165 Monday to Friday, plus the certificate. Saturday is £210 plus the certificate. Say whether you want a formal group or a short set at the door, and book the hours to match that room rather than the Hanbury Suite.
Does the £400 approved-premise fee include the room we will be photographed in?
No. That Monday to Friday figure is the registrars. The venue charges separately for the room. Send the venue name, and say if they also need to cover the old town hall. Two buildings means travel in the quote.
