The Laws For Weddings In England & Wales Are So Outdated And Date Back To 1836.
There Has Recently Been Proposals From The Law Commission To Bring These Up To Date, Here We Discuss What These Are And What They Mean For Weddings In The Future
There have always been limitations on where a couple can get married up until now, this means that couples can only get married in an officially licensed sanctioned building which means either a religious building or a registry office.
There are of course some places where marriages can take place that have been recognised as approved premises since 1994 but of course the number on the list is quite limited.
Another issue is that whilst an exception exists for Jews and Quakers to marry in accordance with their rites which is a historic ruling dating back to the 17th century, other religious such as Hinduism and Islam are not actually legally recognised.
So that doesn’t leave much choice if you wanted to get married somewhere different and if you don’t hold any religious beliefs, and the current laws are not very fair if you practice a religion where your traditional ceremonies are not legally binding.
In fact, England and Wales are currently behind the rest of the UK, in Scotland for example couples can marry anywhere they like as long as they have an officiated celebrant.
There has also been changes over the last couple of years whereby both parents of couples are now recognised on Marriage Certificates yet in the past only the father was listed.
The recent Coronavirus pandemic has brought this issue to the forefront as marriages stopped for a period of time during the Lockdowns and as weddings can only be conducted indoors there was no possibility for the ceremonies to go ahead outdoors.
The laws date back to 1836, and as you find in legal systems sometimes things need to happen for laws to be reviewed and updated and as such the Law Commission has recently reviewed the system.
