Deferring your ceremony if you cannot attend

If you cannot attend your congregation ceremony for personal reasons, you can apply for deferral.  Once you have received your invitation, you can opt to attend a future ceremony by completing the Deferral Application Form.  Please note if you wish to attend a Congregation, you must attend within one year of being awarded.  You should apply for deferral before the date of your original ceremony, any deferral applications submitted retrospectively will not be considered.
