Dates of Religious and Court Marriage

Post by harv » Tue Jan 24, 2012 10:56 am

Hi

I was wondering if someone can shed some light on this subject.

Theoretically, following process happens:

1 - Religious Marriage
2 - Court Marriage (legally registering the marriage)

I believe UKBA also understands that the religious marriage usually happens before the court marriage.

However does it matter if this is the other way around?

If the Court marriage happens first followed by the religious marriage.

I am asking this because I possibly get the court marriage done first if possible. Also I will be adding the invitation card of my religious marriage with the evidence, which will clearly show the date.

Would this cause any issues you think?

It won't matter in which order.
