Give Births, Deaths and Marriages a call. They're in the white pages (at the front in the govt section) and they're really nice and helpful on the phone. They'll tell you exactly where to go and what you need to bring with you

Yay! Congrats, that's so exciting. I remember when I got ours, all seemed very real and "soon" all of a sudden I couldn't stop looking at it once I picked it up!
