A civil wedding requires that one of the couple have lived in France for 40 days prior to the wedding. Civil weddings can only take place in a local Mairie (town hall) civil weddings cannot be performed outside, in a hotel, chateau or any other location.

No matter what your religion French law states that in order to have a religious ceremony you must have a civil ceremony first, either in France or in the UK. There are some churches in France where the ceremony can be performed in English.

Non-French nationals require a certificate of celibacy in order to have there wedding in France. You may also need to obtain a certificate of custom law.
