Marriage or civil partnership – what’s the difference?
Marriage and civil partnership both provide legal recognition of a committed relationship and offer similar legal rights and protections. The key difference is the way they are formed.
A marriage is created through the exchange of marriage vows during a ceremony, whereas a civil partnership is formed by signing a legal document in the presence of a registrar and witnesses.
Both options are available to opposite-sex and same-sex couples, allowing you to choose the commitment that best reflects your values and preferences.
