Re: :|: MHO :|: Court Marriage - Regarding

Special Marriage Act, 1954
Special Marriage Act allows any two individuals to marry (including intercast marriages), irrespective of their religion, caste and nationality. It even applies to people living abroad, with Indian nationality. Therefore, any marriage under the Special Marriage Act is a Civil Marriage by registration. However, there are some conditions to be fulfilled under this act.
 
  • Neither party should have a living husband or wife.
  • Neither party should be a lunatic or insane.
  • The bridegroom should not be less than 21 years of age whereas the bride must be 18 years old.
  • The parties should not be involved in any prohibited relationship.
  • Both parties should be the citizens of and domiciled within the territories mentioned in the Act.
 
Marriage Ceremony
 
  • Notice must be given by the bride and bridegroom to the Marriage Officer of the district, with one of them residing immediately previous to the notice for atleast 30 days.
  • Marriage Officer records the notice and sends a copy to the Marriage Officer of the District.
  • 30 days time is given for any person to raise any objections to the intended marriage.
  • From the date of receipt of any objections, the Marriage Officer should enquire into the same, within 30 days.
  • If the objections are found valid, either party to the intended marriage may appeal to the District Court, whose decision shall be binding.
  • In case there is no objection or the objection is rejected, the parties with 3 witnesses sign in presence of the Marriage Officer, declaring they are unmarried and are not related within prohibited degrees.
  • The marriage is then solemnized in any form which parties choose to adopt. The form must have the following declaration by each party to the effect; "I take thee to be my lawful wife (or husband)." The parties and 3 witnesses then sign the certificate of solemnization. This certificate is conclusive certificate of solemnization.
  • The solemnization should be completed within 3 months from the date of notice, failing which the notice lapses and a new notice needs to be issued.

Hi Friends,
I need a help from you people.
I am from Bangalore, India.
I am in love with a girl since four years, now we have planned to get married.
We are planning to go for court marriage.
Our parents have agreed for our marriage without any problem.
Since our customs differ, they asked us to do a court marriage instead of a normal marriage.
There is no objection from any one. In fact our parents will be the witnesses for our marriage.

My question is,
In this case, is it possible to get a court marriage in a day or two?
What documents do we require for court marriage?
What is the procedure for the court marriage?

Thank & Regards,
Hari Krishna
