Court wedding, church wedding or tradition wedding, A NT Christian is NOT bound by any of them. We do NOT explicitly have law or even commandment to be bounded by a particular one of them. What the NT testament preaches is "Husband, love your wife and wife, love your husband". What am afraid of is churches making church marriage COMPULSORY or even as prerequisite for church leadership. There is NO such commandment for Christian. Do whatever type of marriage you desire and you are okay. 2 Likes |

There may nt b a commandmt on marriage bt there was teaching thru d inspiratn of d holy spirit 2 his servants on dat. Dnt 4get paul teachin on marriage. I preffered Church wedding 2 any type bc its a union done right in d presence of God as a wittness n blesser. U dnt ve 2 spend excessivly if u dnt ve; u can stil keep it low. minus dat, if u r a true member of ur church n belong 2 1 group or d oda, u will recieve assistance n donations. 1 Like |

cdamsel: official b4 who?man or God?abi na pre-nup u no won sign? Well, whenever i want to marry, i'll definitely sign a pre-nup with my would be if she insist on a court wedding. If she wants just a church wedding with no legal backing, no probs, i'll paint the town the rainbow colour for her. I didn't sweat blood and water, nor labour under rain and sunshine to make my money, for no chic who didn't know where/how i made my money,to come and claim half of it later. No f.uc.cking way.  2 Likes |

Both go hand-in-hand. Church wedding without going to the registry is like one going on a journey without a briefcase! Nowadays though, people don't really do church weddings especially those who av already taken in, they just do engagement then go straight to the registry which is the real marriage because it comes with legal backing. Like a friend of mine would always say, church wedding, reception is just a formality! Signing the certificate is the real deal. If I were to choose, I'd go for the court wedding, then have a balmy reception. But when am getting married, its church wedding all the way, then the registry! Its really very important to have legal backing, because the wedding is just one day. |

Church wedding are more difficult to break up as its a vow under God wrapped up in so much scary morality. I'd prefer a court wedding though where I can easily apply for a divorce for simple reasons like if "She" gets fat 1 Like |

cdamsel: they both have their good sides so its kinda hard to pick. Whether Church wedding or Court wedding, the most important is that you prepare your mind for the 'reality journey' you are about to embark on! Most times few people survive it, it takes the grace of God! So, Church or court wedding is immaterial to the reality on ground, just my penny worth! |

Will definitely do the three.....traditional marriage could be low keyed, court and then church wedding. Not necessarily a fairy tale wedding. We will plan it according to what we can afford. When I think of the day I'd get married, I usually picture myself in a lovely wedding gown. |

It seems many people are ignorant of the validity of marriages in the eye of the law. Take note of the following, before you end up contracting an invalid marriage. Only three types of marriages are legally recognised. They are: 1. Statutory Marriage/Marriage under the Act. This involves strict formalities as contained in the Act, after which the Marriage Certificate is issued. Note that this type of marriage can be contracted either in a Registrar's office (court wedding) or a CERTIFIED/LICENSED place of worship. What you should therefore inquire from your priest is whether or not your church is a licensed place of worship. If it is, you don't have to bother your head about 'court wedding' but if its not, then you may observe the court wedding, and thereafter the ceremonial church wedding, which is of no legal consequence. As things stand, the Catholic Church, though not a licensed place of worship issues her own license (which is not recognised by law). The Church believes marriage is not the law's business but God's. If you contract a Catholic wedding therefore, without first going to court, you are on your own. The other two types are Islamic and Traditional Marriages. These two are potentially polygamous while statutory is monogamous. Infact, the latter criminalises marrying more than a wife through the offence of bigamy. |

Both are OK, but if doing in a church, make sure it is a registered church so your wedding will be legally recognized. |

3 types of marriages are recognized and any of it it's valid on d law be it traditional,religious(marrying in d church or mosque) and marriage under d marriage act.i guess most of u here dat preferred religious marriage are selfish.if a religious organization has acquired license to perform marriage Act,that's ok since such marriage wld be protected under d law.if u marry under d Act,bigamy for instance is 25yrs imprisonment in d south west and d north 5yrs if u dare to marry another person while been legally married.how many wants to come under this law?the truth is only those who love and understand dat marriage is everlasting commitment wld .Divorce is very easy under d other 2 but very difficult under d act.marriage in d registry provides protection for the couple and still remain d best.u can stil hv yr funfare if u choose. |

Johnsinia: i think for the purposes of clarity and learning when we argue/discuss bible teachings its only appropriate we be specific with respect to bible verses. What was Paul's teaching on marriage? Secondly am a bit perplexed by this constant referral to 'presence of God' in church weddings. Is God not present @ court weddings? Please lets not confuse the presence of a pastor/priest with that of God... 2 Likes |

Toktee: Iam getting married next month,in living faith you must do the three,traditional,court before church,am still in the court process now,iz not easyWow..but in Living Faith, I think you can pay ahead to the church for the court certificate and it will be presented together with the church own during the church wedding. A friend did hers recently and I really love the plan: the traditional was held on the Saturday morning of church wedding (8-10am) at a venue not far from the church, the church own was from 11am to 1am, and we all headed back to the former venue for reception from 2pm to 5pm. Mind you, the couple collected both the church and court certificates that same day. |

I Did Court and tradiTion. In as muCh as church wedding is good, it can't be compared to court wedding for a lot of legal reasons, am so sleepy now and can't explain, but u can ask a lawyer for details. In Conclusion, when I was having probs with my husby, iF not for court we would have been separated with me married to someone else by now. ThankGoD we are back together. My Advise, if u want to remain in marriage, still add Court to ur list of marriAges, am not saying u can't divorce in court, But I know it saved my marriage. |
