Civil Marriage Ceremonies

The Municipality of Central Frontenac offers the services of an experienced Wedding Officiant to compliment your special day.

Civil marriage ceremonies are officiated in english only by Cathy MacMunn, Municipal Clerk and Marriage Commissioner, and can be performed at the Municipal Office or a location of your choosing. The marriage ceremony lasts approximately 20 minutes depending on the vows chosen. The service time booked is approximately one (1) hour to allow for photo opportunities.

A pre-ceremony meeting must be scheduled with the Municipal Clerk/Marriage Commissioner in order to provide the proper service and to prepare a personalized wedding experience. To ensure services are available on their preferred date, couples are encouraged to book their pre-ceremony meeting and their wedding date well in advance.
