Dear client, as per the Section 5 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 makes a  marriage lawful only if the groom has attained the age of 21 years at the time of marriage and the bride has attained the age of 18 years at the time of marriage.

no as per the law in Vogue you can get married. the provision of 21 years for girls has not been promulgated yet. . as far as procedure is concerned kindly get in touch with a local marriage registry official. you have to fill up the form with relevant documents then wait for the notice period which is around 30 days and then get 3 witnesses for each to get married and voila! by the way happy wedding.
