Rom Aka Solemisation

 

Registry of Marriage 
http://app.rom.gov.sg/index.asp

Important to note for couple:
You need to file for notice of marriage. 
https://app.rom.gov.sg/efile/file_notice_marriage_step1a.asp 
Usually is 3 months before your marriage however if you solemisation outside ROM you need less than 3 months. Not to worry so much because your Justice of Peace ( JP) will inform you.

If you are like me who solemisation outside ROM, booking a JP is not as easy as what you think it will be . Especially those very popular ones.

For JP

Do remember to
  1. Check with your Solemnizer on his/her:
    1. Language preference for solemnization
    2. Requirement(s) such as meeting up and/or pre-marriage preparation
  2. Invite your Solemnizer personally (third party such as a relative or wedding planner is not entertained)
  3. Note that your Solemnizer sacrifices personal time and efforts when he/she accepts your invitation to grace your joyous occasion as Guest-of-Honour. As a gesture of appreciation, please ensure that he/she is warmly received, entertained, and reimbursed for transport to and from your wedding venue.

Following are the popular JP . Keep seeing these JP names in forum and how eager every couples trying their best to get them to be their JP.

Dr Phua Tan Tee
( Only take up booking 3 months before your marriage and wont take any booking before that . I tried too many times. He is known to be very funny and can speak multi number of languages. )
Mdm Chia Swee Tin ( My JP )
( Her first impression given to me is that she is a very strict lady. But when you meet up with her, you will realised is a such a funny and approachable lady. She is very professional and someone you can look for about marriage consulting . Never regret to ask her to be my JP )
JP Chan Kai Yau 
( I think he is quite old but he is very friendly through the phone . He dont have a mobile and only take call from house. This is quite surprising. But abit worrying, as on the AD how to contact him )
JP Simon Sim
Dr Kwoh Chee Keong
JP Yeo Woon Soon
Prof Yu
JP Peter Lee Keok Boon
JP Patrick Tan
JP Koh Kok Weng
JP Chia Ti Yu
JP Eric Wong
JP Chung Tang Foong

Consent to Solemnise also need to give your JP to sign and be given to ROM a few days before your wedding date . That day also to collect your ROM cert and vow to be legally to be husband and wife. My wedding is on 9th dec 2012. I went down on 6th Dec 2012. There is a specific date and time given to you after you file for your notice of marriage.
