What is a Civil Marriage?

A civil marriage, often referred to as a civil ceremony or civil wedding, is a legal union between two individuals that is officiated by a government authority or a civil servant rather than a religious figure. This type of marriage typically takes place in a courthouse, city hall, or other government-approved location. Unlike religious ceremonies, civil marriages do not involve religious rituals or clergy.

What is the Dress Code in a Civil Wedding?

The dress code for a civil marriage can vary widely based on personal preferences, the formality of the occasion, and the chosen venue. Unlike traditional or religious weddings with specific cultural or religious dress codes, civil marriages often provide more flexibility for couples to express their individual styles. Whether you envision yourself as the epitome of elegance, gracefully gliding in a long satin gown or opting for the chic simplicity of minimalist attire, the options are as varied as the colours in a rainbow.
