lifetime, except by a valid judgment of divorce; and if either of you before the
death of the other shall contract another marriage while this remains
undissolved, you will be thereby guilty of bigamy and liable to punishment for
that offence.”
Each of the parties shall then say to the other—
“I call upon all persons here present to witness that I, (name), do take thee,
(name), to be my lawful wife (or husband)”.
27. Marriage certificate to be signed.
The registrar shall then fill out, and he or she and the parties and witnesses shall sign,
the certificate of the marriage in duplicate, and the registrar shall then fill out and sign
the counterfoil as prescribed in section 24 in the case of a marriage by a minister, and
shall deliver one certificate to the parties and shall file the other in his or her office.
28. Marriage under Minister’s licence.
Whenever the Minister’s licence authorises the celebration of marriage at a place other
than a licensed place of worship, or the office of a registrar of marriages, the registrar of
the district in which the marriage is intended to take place, upon the production of the
licence, shall deliver to the person producing it a blank certificate of marriage in
duplicate, and the minister or registrar celebrating the marriage shall fill out the
certificate, and observe strictly all the formalities hereinbefore prescribed as to
marriages in a licensed place of worship, or registrar’s office, as the case may be.
29. Conversion of marriage by customary law into legally binding
marriage.
Whenever after the 1st July, 1914, any persons already married or professing to be
married to each other by customary law desire to convert that marriage into a marriage
by which they are legally bound to each other as man and wife so long as both shall live
by a ceremony before a registrar, such provisions of this Act as apply to a marriage
before a registrar under section 26 shall apply to the conversion as though it were a
marriage under that section; but in that case the Forms G, H, I, J and K in the First
Schedule to this Act shall be used in lieu of the Forms A, C, D, E and F and the
following forms shall be used in lieu of, and shall have the same effect as, those
provided in section 26.
