1942.
Marriage
by
Registration.
An
Act
was
passed
in
the
reign
of
William
the
Fourth,
by
which
it
was
rendered
legal
for
persons
wishing
to
be
married
by
a
civil
ceremony,
to
give
notice
of
their
intention
to
the
Registrar
of
Marriages
in
their
district
or
districts.
Three
weeks'
notice
is
necessary,
to
give
which
the
parties
call,
separately
or
together,
at
the
office
of
the
registrar,
who
enters
the
names
in
a
book.
When
the
time
of
notice
has
expired,
it
is
only
necessary
to
give
the
registrar
an
intimation,
on
the
previous
day,
of
your
intention
to
attend
at
his
office
on
the
next
day,
and
complete
the
registration.
The
ceremony
consists
of
merely
answering
a
few
questions,
and
making
the
declaration
that
you
take
each
other
to
live
as
husband
and
wife.
The
fee
amounts
only
to
a
few
shillings,
and
in
this
form
no
wedding
ring
is
required,
though
it
is
usually
placed
on
the
ring-finger
of
the
bride's
left
hand,
in
the
presence
of
the
persons
assembled.
The
married
couple
receive
a
certificate
of
marriage,
which
is
in
every
respect
lawful.
