What is a Christian Marriage in India?

A Christian marriage is a religious union solemnized in a church and officiated by a licensed minister or priest. While spiritually and religiously binding, a church-issued certificate is not valid as legal proof in many government or legal processes.

To make it legally recognized, couples must register the marriage with the appropriate Sub-Registrar.
