We've got a date - nearly!

It's very complicated, this wedding business - you would think that getting married in Morley Town Hall was virtually the same process as doing it at Leeds Town Hall; as in, you pays your money and you picks your date. But oh no! That would be too simple wouldn't it? First of all you have to book the town hall.

The rooms booking people tell you to book the town hall first and then book the registrar after. Good job I thought that was a stupid idea and phoned the registrar first to see what appointments they had on the day we wanted. 10am and 4pm. Hmmmm so I could have ended up booking the town hall, which is free all day, for, lets say 2pm, when there isn't actually anyone available to marry us then. 

Next is the fact that in order to book Morley town hall, they send you a booking form, which you fill in and send back, and then they send you the contract (based on the info from the form) and then you have to sign it, and send it back. ***Leeds rooms booking people, for your info, the form is crap***

Finally, and this is the most galling of all, is that as well has having to pay to hire the town hall rooms themselves, you also have to pay the 'not getting married at Leeds town hall' fee of £340. So, an additional £200 on top of the Leeds fee.  

Cor blimey, it's a licence to print money.
