Court marriage as you call it is solemnized under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 all such marriages can take place between any two Indian citizens as well one Indian citizen with a foreigner irrespective of their religion, caste or creed, and you can say this is the secular form of marriage available in our country. Such a marriage is solemnized before the marriage officer/registrar usually D.C. deputy commissioner of the area (Sub registrar/SDM is the marriage officer/registrar only in case the already solemnized marriage under any other Act has to be registered) where both or any of the parties to such a marriage reside. Cost of such a marriage is merely Rs90/- or as the rate prevalent in your area. Now how you proceed? Both the parties to the marriage file a joint application before the marriage officer along with individual affidavit attested by notary public specifying the age(boy 21yrs &girl 18yrs), place of residence, marital status(unmarried or divorcee as the case maybe), mental status(not idiot or not with unfit mind), not related to each other. Along with this you have to give proof of age , proof of residence, & the application of such a marriage should be witnessed by 3 independent adult persons, affix one photograph of each of the parties & all the 3 witnesses. You have made such an application to the marriage officer in person along with all the 3 witnesses. On receiving such an application the marriage officer issues a month notice regarding the intended marriage & get such a notice affixed on the notice board out side his office, a copy of such notice is sent to the marriage officer under whose jurisdiction the other party lives, also a copy is to the individual parties address. After expiry of the period of notice a date is fixed on which all the persons parties to the marriage & 3 witnesses appear again before the marriage officer who declare them married & issue a certificate to this regard. Incase of any objections raised the marriage officer will settle these objections. Now what can be objections that can be raised? These can ONLY BE REGARDING THE CONDITIONS NECESSARY FOR SUCH MARIAGE & NOTHING ELSE. What are the conditions? As I stated above i.e. Age, martial status, mental status, prohibited relationship (related to each other by blood). But in your case I don’t thing any of these conditions are been contravened so simply you two being professing different religion will not affect your marriage prospects. This is the brief procedure I have told you here, incase you want any clarification you can ask.

Hindu and Chirstan getting married in Delhi court. Heck if you make through the marriage ceremony you will be fine. As long as you don't have any further religious beliefs and move to say someplace neutral like California

Go to the Sub-registrar's office in your municipality, with relevant documents like proof of age, residence & nationality, and photographs. After submitting the application, you will be given a date and the wedding would be solemnized on that date provided no one declares any objections (i.e., Your pictures along with the details would be displayed on the notice board of the Sub-registrar's office for the said period of time and in case any person has any objections they can express the same with reasons). On the said wedding date, you will be required to take two witnesses (one from your side and the other from your spouse's side) along with you, all of you sign the papers and get your marriage certificate within a week's time.
All the Best

After 30 days of Notice of Intended Marriage, given by both parties, the marriage will be registered by the concerned Marriage Officer (usually Sub-Registrar of Assurances of Registration & Stamps Department). 3 witnesses with 3 pp size photographs with proof of identity & residence is essential. Boy should be 21+ and girl 18+; religions immaterial and none should already be in wedlock.

Do it fast. Whatever happens to u later, u will be wiser with the experience. As it is going to be in Court, there will not be any matter with regard to converting ur religion. U retain ur indiviuality and live as two human beings marrying for love and adopt each other's best qualities to be better and exemplary married couple.

No you can choose to marry under international/special marriage act where you don't have to change your religion. don't choose either Hindu or religious marriage act. You can do this in Delhi court but better talk to your lawyer and get witness ready for ceremony etc. Spartan

The world is changing. Religion is irrelevant now. If you have to convert for love go ahead or just come to the western world so you can do what ever you want.
