Re: marraige registration

not necessarily. get copies of :

1. your residence proof

2. photo copies of you and your wife

3. proof of your wedding (photo-church record- invitation ..)

and approach the registrar's office. Get the forms filled and they will take care of the rest. but still you can take a lawyer's advice and guidance to help you out. But how come your wedding was solomnised in a church without conversion?
