Wedding day

Civil ceremony

The legal marriage, with an officiant or at city hall.

What happens

The legal marriage: an officiant or a city hall ceremony with two witnesses, the licence signed, the certificate to follow. Many couples hold it on its own day, before or after the religious ceremony; some fold it into the main ceremony with an officiant licensed in their province.

Vendors: a licensed officiant, a photographer for the hour, and florals or a small backdrop if it is held at a venue.
