[Thread]: @sukritnagpal & I recently got married under the #specialmarriageact. We wanted a civil partnership with no religious ceremonies but found the process difficult because there is a dearth of information. This thread attempts to demystify this & help overcome hurdles(1/n) This process (of the court getting you married) is called 'soleminisation', & is used for couples following different religions, or desiring a civil form of marriage, etc. This is different from registering your marriage (which is optionally done after religious ceremonies) (2/n)
