Same Day Marriage
A "same day marriage lawyer" typically refers to a lawyer specializing in facilitating court marriages where the marriage certificate and registration can be obtained on the same day, often through a special scheme like the "Tatkal" scheme. This involves using the Special Marriage Act, 1954, which allows couples to register their marriage after a notice period, or the Hindu Marriage Act, which allows registration immediately after the ceremony.

Witnesses:
