Court marriage is becoming increasingly popular in Delhi, as more and more couples opt for this simple and hassle-free way of getting married. A court marriage is a legal process where the marriage is registered under the Special Marriage Act, 1954, in front of a marriage registrar.

One of the biggest advantages of a court marriage

 is that it is a relatively quick and easy process. Couples can complete the entire process in just a few hours, without any elaborate ceremonies or rituals. All they need to do is provide the necessary documents and complete the legal formalities.

To get married in court in Delhi, couples need to first fill out the application form and submit it to the marriage registrar

. The application form should be signed by both the parties, and two witnesses. The parties also need to provide a copy of their age proof (such as a birth certificate or passport), address proof, and photographs.

Once the application is accepted, the couple needs to give a notice of their intention to get married, which will be displayed on the notice board of the marriage registrar's office for 30 days. During this period, anyone can object to the marriage if they have a valid reason.

If no objections are received within 30 days, the marriage registrar will issue a certificate of marriage, which is a legal proof of the marriage. The certificate will be issued in duplicate, and one copy will be retained by the couple while the other will be kept by the registrar.

In Delhi, court marriages

 can be solemnized in any of the district courts or the office of the marriage registrar. The couple can choose the venue as per their convenience. They can also choose to have a religious ceremony or a reception after the court marriage, but these are not legally required.
