Municipality of Soest: applying to get married
You register your marriage with the municipality, providing all the details about yourself, your partner and your witnesses.
If neither you nor your partner live in the Netherlands, you must give notice of your marriage in the municipality of Den Haag (The Hague). You can find more information on how to register a marriage for Dutch citizens living outside the Netherlands at the netherlandsworldwide.nl website.
When you register your marriage, you make a number of choices, which you communicate to the municipality. These choices relate to the ceremony and the venue. The costs depend on your wishes and the possibilities of the municipality.
Ceremony
The ceremony is the official part of your marriage. You can choose from:
- marriage free of charge;
- simple ceremony;
- elaborate ceremony.
Wedding venue
You can get married in various places. You can choose from:
- a wedding venue of the municipality;
- a wedding venue of your own choice (only by an elaborate ceremony).
If you want to hold the ceremony at a location of your choice, contact the municipality of Soest.
You pay a fee for a simple and elaborate ceremony. For more information, contact the municipality of Soest.
