I did, but most people I know didnt. I married in Jan 2005, but I think it was because I lived in Coventry, my husband to be lived in Leamington, and we were marrying in Mansfield...also, I wanted to be married under my adoptive surname, not the one on my birth cert. (To please my mum, lol). If its a straightforward marriage, I don't think you have to show your cert. |
