Registry office, Grand Canal

    Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me.


    I've a college assignment on marriage due in. I would like to talk to some people that are about to marry.


    I was thinking of heading down to the registry office in Grand Canal. I'm not sure what way it works though. Obviously I don't want to be stopping people when they're walking in to get married, or leaving afterwards.


    Is it a case that people will be waiting to go in or do they just arrive at a set time and walk straight in, no hanging around waiting if you get me.


    Bit of a weird one I know, but any help or advice would be great. Thanks.

    It's not an answer to your question but do you have to talk to people in person for the purposes of your assignment or could you do it on here? We're basically a captive audience :P

    Unfortunately, I've to talk to them in person. Boards would have been perfect otherwise.

    OP I don't think it's a good idea to go to the registry office and approach strangers... especially on their wedding day!

    Do you know any couples who are engaged or could you ask around friends/family for anyone who might be able to help you out? With things like facebook, whatsapp, etc these days, we have a much farther reach than we think. It's all about putting the feelers out there! It shouldn't be too difficult to find some friends of friends who might be willing to chat to you.

    I would have HATED someone outside asking questions after we got married here. What kind of project is it? Did it not occur to those involved how intrusive this is?

    I can't imagine that working.

    It's the last thing anyone would want, in my opinion, to have someone asking them questions on their wedding day.

    It would be intrusive, to say the least. Try what woodchuck has suggested.
