In Gibraltar, we only offer weddings with a personal support/escort by a German, English, French and Spanish-speaking notary in front of whom you sign an affidavit about your marital status one day before the wedding.
Please note: It is not possible to change names upon a wedding in Gibraltar. You can apply for a change of name after the wedding in your home country or at an embassy of your home country in the European country of your residence.
The marriage:
The language of the ceremony is English. If you do not speak or understand English, you would need an interpreter.
Two witnesses are required for the wedding ceremony. If you don´t have your own witnesses, we offer this service as well.
Please note: You will receive the two marriage certificates not directly on the day of your wedding ceremony, but about 15 days later by (registered) letter or - if you wish - by DHL Express.
Legalization / Apostille:
To register the wedding in most countries, you need a legalized marriage certificate with an apostille. Our notary also offers his service and can send you the legalized marriage certificate(s) by registered mail or DHL Express to the European country of your residence.
Documents:
Please send in color scanned copies of these documents by e-mail:
1. Passport or identity card / ID card for members of the European Union or for citizens of visa-free countries

The registry office in Gibraltar:
You can reach Gibraltar by airplane, either directly via London or via Malaga/Spain, and then continue your trip to Gibraltar by car or bus.
Weddings take place daily from Tuesday to Saturday.
The personal registration at the marriage office must be completed one day before the wedding until 09.30 o'clock.
For a Standard wedding ceremony directly at the registry office, all documents must be submitted not later than about 4 weeks before the wedding day; for speed weddings about 2 weeks before the desired wedding date.
Speed weddings usually do not take place at the registry office, but can be held at various locations (a hotel, a cave, Botanical Garden, a cliff). There may be additional fees to be paid depending on the location.
