    What do you mean by a civil ceremony? You have to just go to the Registrar and get registered. You may have to give notice of the marriage before registration. You also need witnesses when sign the papers.

    Yes-I did the nikah in Feb 2010 with my hubby and it wasn't recognized when we were doing his application so we had to have a civil ceremony in November 2010.
