    So telling them they have a civil partnership is a better idea?

    Plus now everybody knows.

    That's the one thing I noticed about getting married how incredibly easy it was to do.

    You know what family can be like about this stuff. My mum would be upset if I got married but didn't have a wedding. A civil partnership would be easier to explain away .

    Yup. All you need to do is prove you're not already married or related to one another, book a date, get two people to bear witness and you're away. Anything else is entirely up to you.

    'Yeah, mum, I couldn't face spending any money or time on you and the rest of the family, so I just had one of those civil partnership doodads instead. Hope you don't mind?'

    You described the traditional wedding 'party' as the pissing away of hold on, why am I typing this out, you literally just typed it yourself.
