Let’s go step by step: 1. Eligibility: Age: Groom must be 21 years or older, and the bride must be 18 years or older. Religion: Both parties should be Hindus (if they belong to different religions, the Special Marriage Act still applies). Marital Status: Both must be unmarried, divorced, or legally separated. Mental Capacity: Both should be of sound mind and capable of giving valid consent. Prohibited Degrees: They should not fall within the prohibited degree of relationship unless custom permits. 2. Required Documents: Proof of Age (Birth Certificate, Passport, or School Leaving Certificate) Address Proof (Aadhar Card, Voter ID, Driving License, Utility Bills) Passport-size photographs (3 each) Aadhaar Card of both parties Affidavit of marital status, nationality, and mental health Invitation card or proof if there was a prior engagement (optional) Witnesses’ ID proof and address proof (minimum 3 witnesses) 3. Procedure: Notice of Intended Marriage: Both parties need to file a notice of intended marriage at the office of the Marriage Registrar in the district where at least one of them has resided for at least 30 days before filing. Publication of Notice: The notice is published and displayed on the notice board of the Marriage Registrar’s office for 30 days. This allows anyone to raise objections, if any. Objections (If Any): If no objections are raised within 30 days, the marriage can proceed. If there are objections, the registrar will investigate them. Marriage Registration: After the 30-day notice period, both parties and their three witnesses must appear before the Marriage Registrar to sign the declaration and get the marriage solemnized. Marriage Certificate: Once the process is completed and the marriage is solemnized, the marriage certificate is issued on the same day or within a few days. This is the legal proof of your marriage. 4. Timeline: Minimum Time: 30 days (due to the notice period). Maximum Time: Depends on the availability of the registrar and if any objections are raised.
