If the parties to a marriage contracted before the Civil Registrar or a Marriage Officer desire that there shall be separately performed any religious service of marriage between them, they may present themselves to any acknowledged minister of religion, and such minister upon the production of a certified copy of the Register of Marriage as contracted before a Civil Registrar or a Marriage Officer may, if he thinks fit, perform such religious service.
Nothing in the reading or celebration of such service shall supersede or invalidate any marriage previously contracted before the Marriage Officer, nor shall such ceremony be registered under this Law as a marriage.
