Don't worry if you don't have your marriage registration certificate. It is not a mandatory document for divorce/mutual Divorce.
Compulsary documents include marriage invitation card and 2-3 photographs of marriage. These two are enough documents to dissolve the marriage.
You can approach me for the process in case you have not appointed your own advocate.

Hello Sir/Madam,
Even in the absence of any marriage proof, you can obtain divorce decree or file divorce petition.

If you do not have any marriage or in the absence of such proof, you will have to file an affidavit to that effect.

Even if you don't have the marriage certificate, you can take a divorce. An affidavit consisting of marriage date, venue and sign of both the parties would suffice in this case. For any further assistance you may get in touch with me.
Thank you.
