They can be followed by church ceremonies if you like, but the civil ceremony is the only bit that counts and is compulsory - and, being France, hopefully identical to all others!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490056916762588900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4645005185804058502.post-26476356232962355912010-04-11T23:24:02.279+02:002010-04-11T23:24:02.279+02:00I hope it's a civil wedding he's going to....I hope it's a civil wedding he's going to.

I have tried this before.<br /><br />Maybe now I've shown that really, I don't even know when it's happening, let alone what's supposed to be happening, they might take it more seriously.<br /><br />A friend of ours is going to a French wedding next month; he's promised to take notes...Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490056916762588900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4645005185804058502.post-36741685172186640742010-04-10T09:45:07.919+02:002010-04-10T09:45:07.919+02:00I can see both sides of this argument....
