Common questions
- How is this free?
- There is no booking fee and no commission — couples pay their witnesses directly and we take nothing. Hosting, the domain and checking every profile by hand are paid for out of pocket, with a little help from voluntary supporter contributions — and every contribution goes straight back into new features and growing the directory, never into anyone's pocket. Chipping in is never expected.
- Do you legally need witnesses to get married in Cornwall?
- Yes. In England and Wales every marriage and civil partnership needs two witnesses present for the whole ceremony, and both sign the register afterwards.
- Who can be a wedding witness?
- Anyone old enough to understand what is happening and able to sign their name. They do not need to know you, and they do not need to be family.
- How much does an elopement witness in Cornwall cost?
- Most local witnesses ask somewhere between £50 and £75 for their time and travel. Each person lists their own guideline, and you settle it with them directly on the day.
- Can I find a witness at short notice?
- Often, yes. Witnesses who are happy with same-day or next-day requests are marked as available at short notice, so photographers and couples can find someone quickly.
- Where do these witnesses cover?
- Penzance, St Ives, Marazion, Mousehole, St Just, Helston, Falmouth, Truro and the wider Cornish coast, including registry office ceremonies and clifftop vows.
- Can we hire witnesses for a registry office wedding in Cornwall?
- Yes. Witnesses from the directory regularly stand at Penzance Registry Office (St John's Hall), Truro Municipal Buildings, Falmouth, Helston, Bodmin and St Austell registration offices, as well as approved premises across Cornwall.
- Do you cover clifftop and beach elopements?
- Absolutely. Witnesses are used to meeting couples at spots like St Ives headland, Prussia Cove, Whitsand Bay and the Lizard Peninsula — wherever in Cornwall you are saying your vows, there is likely someone local on the list.
- How do we book two witnesses for our elopement?
- Browse the cards, pick the one or two witnesses who feel like the right fit, and send one request. Lee passes it on to both, they reply to you directly, and you settle their fee with them on the day.
- Will I get spam if I put my name down?
- No. Your email and phone number are not shown publicly or sold. Requests come through the directory, and you decide each time whether to say yes.
- Can we attend as a pair?
- Yes — partners, friends and neighbours often team up. Add who you would attend with when you sign up, and your card shows that you come as a duo, so a couple can sort both signatures with one enquiry.
