A civil union is marriage in front of a magistrate or judge (as opposed to a priest or reverend or rabbi), a domestic partnership is simply a couple living together without legal papers.

I would say the difference is as follows: Civil Union -a marriage legalized by the State. Domestic Partnership -just living together without the legal formalities of marriage

A domestic partnership would be like a family owned business where all members are partial owners while a civil union would be almost exactly like a marriage.
