Humanist Ceremonies to be legal!!!

Postby Eleanor Rigby » Tue May 01, 2022 12:17 pm

Hi Wollies,

I was listening to the Ray Darcy show this morning and in passing he mentioned Humanist Ceremonies will now be legal and I immediately got to googling!

This makes me so happy! It should be introduced pretty quickly meaning it will be in plenty of time for my wedding next April!

Just thought I'd share. The Irish Times article is below: http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/fro ... 08779.html

Thats great news, about time they started doing this!

We had to pay the humanist and the civil registrar for our wedding, I wonder if the humanists will bump up their prices because of it...?

I hadn't considered this! I wouldn't mind spending a little extra on a Humanist ceremony if it could be legal. I'm just so delighted that it may be possible to have the legal bit on the day of! We're getting married on a Saturday and figured we'd probably go to a registry office a few days beforehand but it will be so much nicer to have our ceremony be legally binding!

I've sent an email to the Humanist Society for further info. I can't wait for the response! :o)ll

We had two ceremonies too EB. One the day before with a few family members with the civil registrar, normal cost of app €160 I think, and the next day we had the humanist, cost €350. They are pricey enough I think without adding anything to it!

Great news, and it's about flipping time. Now you get to be non-religious and not be treated like a second class citizen when getting married!
