Information for those wishing to hold a ceremony here 

Our purpose built register office in Whitby is situated on the historic West Cliff of the town with an excellent view over to the sea. The dedicated ceremony room can accommodate up to 40 guests and there is also a conservatory available for smaller ceremonies.

There is a patio area which offers excellent possibilities for photographs and do feel free to throw your bio-degradable confetti in the patio area. 

There is limited free car parking at the front of the office. A valid permit is required to park in this area, and you will be provided with a permit when you arrive at the office. However, we cannot guarantee spaces will be available for your ceremony. Alternatively, there is ample parking available around the office as we are situated in a large pay and display car park - West Cliff car park. Please follow the signs for West Cliff car park or West Cliff and drive into the car park. Please note that parking fees apply to park in West Cliff car park. If you use the postcode above for your sat-nav, it brings you to Church Square but there is no vehicle access from Church Square to the car park.
