Welcome to this video about getting married in France! I’m going to go through the lead up to our French civil wedding ceremony, submitting our dossier de marriage at the local town hall (mairie), the ceremony itself and the big question - what does this all mean now for my life in France? My potential French Nationality?
If you’re wanting some more administrative guidance, there are awesome articles out there like this one which are really useful, but ALWAYS call your town hall first to double check: bit.ly/2xDsIi3

Don't forget to register your French marriage at the New Zealand embassy. It is not automatic.
And, congratulations!
Jidé same thing for registering the French marriage at the American embassy right?
Great idea having two celebration parties, one in France and one in New Zealand so both families can celebrate with you. Felicitations
You're smart not to have an expensive wedding--- its a total waste of money.
Love your "expat" videos-- watching "expat" videos is a great way to learn about a country. Thanks to you, I've learned so much about France! (I'm American, BTW.)
MrDaydreamer1584 It's not a waste of money, some people prefer to have a huge wedding and to spend so much money because it's very important for them. Maybe for you but it's not the same for everyone.
Ambre 1996 that depends ..on how do we feel important .
Ambre 1996
I see so many working-class and middle-class people having really expensive weddings--- to the point of going into debt. Its almost as if they are trying to impress the rest of the world. Its stupid.
I also suspect that-- at least here in America-- there is a "wedding industry", and that weddings are a big rip-off.
@@MrDaydreamer1584 yap totaly agree
There is also the "tradition" to made your parents paid for that, wich is just a remaining of medieval tradition, and its just a good thing for wedding planner
A fresh couple must put that much money on basicaly anithing else than that
Congratulations Madame :) so moving that your partner's father was the one getting you married!!
Contragulations. Regarding the "Livret de Famille", it's nothing to sneer at. It is actually one of your most important piece of documenation. File it really securely, because when you will become a French citizen in four year's time, and when you will have children (if that's your wish) this will become one of the proof of French nationality to be issued a Carte d'Identité, either for yourself or your children. It is tremendously important.
Sneer? She looked excited about it.
Actually, the livret de famille can’t be used when you’re applying for a carte d’identité. Believe it or not, they are often full of mistakes... Birth certificates always tell the truth or it becomes the truth if the birth certificate says so... until you fix whatever mistake the certificate says through justice. ;)
Justine Moreau : True, but try to pick up your child's brand new ID at the mairie without your Livret de Famille...
Ordinosaurs & retro computers I do it every day ;)
Plus it's super useful for genealogy and family history. I was glad to have my grandparents' livret.
Congratulations on your wedding !!! 🎉🎉🎉I'm happy for you and your husband 🙂
I LOVE the marriage “passport”! What a beautiful heritage. Congratulations!!
Congratulations!! I love your channel so much! I'm French but I have been living in the UK for over 3 years and it's really nice to watch you talk about all the French traditions and things that we do, it makes me feel at home, so merci! 😘
for unknown reasons, this video popped up in my suggestions again. I checked it again because wedding cheer me up and thought I'd leave you guys a congrats message again.It's always good to have a reminder of the magic of the day :) Félicitations, hope you guys live happily.
Hi,
Small correction, in France, you can not "replace" your last name with your husband last name. You can use it, but it's not your legal name. So can your husband do.
So if Mr. X marry Mrs. Y, he can say, "hey I Mr. X, or Mr. Y, or Mr. X-Y, or Mr. Y-X." (and he can change it every time he want). But for all legal stuff, like asking for a new passport, he stay Mr.X, and Mrs Y is only Mrs Y.
GAJA Geek Right ! As a wife, I added my husband’s name to mine but the only legal last name is the birth name, from birth til death. The husband’s last name is called « nom d’usage ». That’s all.
stillyoungmum True.. the same thing here in the Netherlands ( normal, our civic laws are based on the Code Napoléon) in my passport it is : .. maiden name ev.. ( épouse de) nom de mon mari) J'ai le droit de me servir du nom de mon mari, mais mon nom de fille reste le nom légal.
Je ne savais pas c'est bizarre
ainsi que témoins ?
Rosie congratulations again! Love the laid back relaxed style of your wedding, such a wonderful idea 💡 wish I had done something like that! Looks like a gorgeous day!
I'm so happy for you Rosie. Congratulations on your wedding !!!
So cool you explained all of this. I didn’t know there was so much to do to get married in France. My husband and I eloped and we live in the US. We decided on either Sunday or Monday that we would go get married on Friday (yes, just a few days later) and we went into the courthouse on Friday morning and got married. It was that fast and simple 😂
Sounds great to me
So very happy for you, Rosie! I wish you all the best in the future.
Congrats Rosie!!!! Je suis tellement contente pour toi ! 😊
This is a dream set up for a wedding tbh!! So beautiful and simple.
Congrats! My sister had a really small, lovely civil wedding this summer as well and could not recommend it enough. All the best to you and your husband!
Thank you for sharing such a special and interesting experience online!
Felicitations!! I’ve just tied to knot in a foreign country as well and went through a very similar process.
Have enjoyed your videos for quite a while now but I’m commenting for the first time. Nice to see France (again) from the perspective of someone living there not as a student :)
Félicitations Rosie!. Congratulations! I wish you both the best there is💖
Many many congratulations Rosie! You were a glowing and gorgeous bride even with a simple look. Wish you all the happiness Madame!
Congratulations. It sounds lovely. Can't wait to see your NewZeland ceremony. Hope you include more of your photos from your wedding in France. Weddings are delightful. Again congratulations
What a beautiful venue to celebrate! Congratulations to both of you and have a wonderful life together. 🥂💕Deb

Hi Rosie, Congratulations! 😎
Just to let you know that back in the 60' a foreign spouse just had to register the marriage at a French consulate if married abroad and one week later he or she would receive automatically a French passport, nationality being acquired through marriage. Times have changed... Bisous.
Hi Rose, congratulations very happy for both of you!
J'adore tes vidéos !!! Et félicitations pour ton mariage !!!
So sweet!! Congrats!! 🍾👰🏻🤵🏻💞
OMG!!! Congrats! 💓💓💓
Congratulations on your marriage! That is an interesting process. I had no idea. You made a beautiful bride. :)
Wow, quite the process! I never looked into the process in any country so this is really interesting

Congratulations! I wish you a lot of happiness
Love your video once again, the content is SO helpful! So neat to actually SEE what a livret familial looks like -- they just talk about it on the website but I had no idea what it was. Now it's so clear! We went to a French wedding and was SO surprised that dinner started at 10pm! 😱 Question: doesn't the PACS help you to get the spousal Visa?
Congratulation for your wedding !
Wow you seem to be really happier and sweeter Congratulations !
J'adore ton excitation pour le livret de famille hahahah!!! Ton marriage avait l'air super chouette et cosy :)

Congratulations Madame, I fully understand your efforts of the French marriage, I have to do the documents twice and all the notary before it expired as we extend the marriage date.
Felicitation!

CONGRATS !! 😀🎉🎊
Best wishes! 💗
I am French and I like your videos. I also got married abroad and that's when I discovered the particularity of the French law regarding the names of married couples. In France you can legally "use" your husband's name (it's called "nom d'usage"), but your actual name will always be your maiden name. It's like you can borrow it (it is legal) but it's never really yours. It is a strange legal thing that doesn't exist anywhere else as far as I know. The country where I got married allows legally changing names but because of the French particular law, I didn't have this option.
Same for Mexican citizens. I have a Mexican passport and my maiden name is on it with a very very small spot with my "spouse's" last name.
Congrats!!! Beautiful bride :)))
Hi Rosie ! Congratulations !
I'm a french teacher for foreigners (prof de FLE) and your videos about culture shocks inspire me a lot !
I got married in Normandy 2 years ago, ans I definitely agree with you : the ceremony in the mairie is too "legal". I also was shocked by the amount of references to children and family, especially because I'm still not sure if we will have some..
Thanks for sharing all those interesting views about french culture.
Best regards,
Virginie.
Congratulations to both of you from India !! Have a wonderful married life :)
Sorry if this was already cleared, but it's not the birth certificate itself that expires. It is the validity of the specific copy you are given. The original is stored and you don't have it. These copies have an expiracy date to avoid identity theft or other unpleasant things I guess ?
Congratulations!!!!! 🎉🥂🍾
Congratulations to both of you. Best wishes too. 👦🏻👰🏻❤️
Congratulations on your wedding!! That's funny how a new zealander living in France would have the same thoughts about the wedding hussle as a berarusian 😀 We had almost exactly the same wedding with 2 different parties and a 10 min ceremony without exchanging rings even 😂😂😂 Thank you for this video, it made me smile a lot 😀😀😀

Congrats et felicitations!! 😊xx
yayyyy!!! so cute!
Congrats!!
Toutes mes félicitations pour le mariage et toutes ces superbes vidéos partagées. Bisous de Belgique :) Raphaël
Just a little add to your statement about the application to the French citizenship once you are married to a Frenchman or Frenchwoman, it can indeed be done 5 years after the day of your wedding but as far as I know, you need to be living in France during all the process of the application and not abroad. Not 100% sure, best way to know is to check with the French consulate where you live. Once you're French, you can choose to live wherever you want to ;)
Congratulations, your videos are fabulous.
