We call marriage sacred. The law calls it a contract. And somewhere between rituals and registrars, thousands fall through the cracks.

Because here’s the truth:
Many Indian marriages aren’t even legally valid.

💍 What People Get Wrong:

• A temple wedding ≠ legal marriage

• A big fat shaadi ≠ registered union

• A “love marriage” without paperwork? Good luck proving anything in court

Under The Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, or Muslim Personal Law, your rights depend on registration, consent, and procedure. Not pandit selfies or Instagram reels.

🔥 Real Consequences:

• No maintenance/alimony without legal marriage

• Child custody becomes complicated

• Domestic violence claims become harder to process legally

⚖️ Moral of the story:

You can throw 10 lakhs on a wedding — but if you don’t sign the right form, it’s a relationship. Not a legal bond.

📌 Sacred? Yes. But in the court of law?
Paperwork first. Pheras second.
