depends on the reason given. sometimes it can be resolved immediately; such as an ex spouse objecting but the divorce paperwork is there. or a woman says she is pg by the guy. Not married to him, the couple can proceed if they wish. A claim that one partner is already married that cannot be proven right away stops the ceremony

The idea goes back generations and generations when there were not newspapers, phone, radios, and computers to tell people the bad things people had done.
When the community came together, after the bands were posted by the church to tell people of the proposed marriage, the only time a person could easily say this marriage should not happen was at the ceremony since people did not travel long distances except special events.
I doubt when it is said, if it is said these days, at a wedding that even if someone spoke up (until the movies) it would stop the wedding!

If the reason is lawful i.e. one of the couple is already married - then obviously it can't continue and would have to be re-book either for when the divorce comes through - or the person involved is out of prison for biggamy!
If the reason is infact one of morality - and more often than not it is i.e. groom/bride has been at it with someone else - the wedding is generally cancelled and the couple have to wait a month before they can do it again - but that offers some great thinking time!!!!

Why not object before the wedding. Anything that you have to say, that would affect the outcome at the wedding will have the same results now. If you decide to object, you will have to stand and tell everyone whatever it is you want to say...and it better be good at that. Then the couple and the minister will probably have a private meeting, to decide what they are going to do..If it is a legal matter, then the claim would have to be explored, if its moral matters, you will probably be removed from the premisis. The problem is, you are disrupting a day for not only the bride and groom but all the friends and famiy too. If they decide to go ahead with the wedding, youve just put a huge black mark on what is supposed to be THE DAY...If they dont, youve embarrassed one of the two parties, and made everyone else uncomfortable. Just address it now, at the latest crash the rehersal. Just do what u need to do before they walk down the aisle PLEASE

If it's a lawful reason, the wedding won't happen. If it's just some jerk being a jerk he should be hauled off the by the groomsmen and the wedding proceeds as planned. Unless the objection raises some objection with the bride and groom.

The wedding stops, then steps would be taken legally to find out if there were grounds for the termination of the wedding. Depending on the results, either the wedding would be held at a later date or proceedings may be taken depending on the severity of the matter.

That question you mentioned that is asked by a registrar/vicar I believe is only asked at weddings in the movies. If I am incorrect, the bride and groom can always suggest that it not be asked.

that's why it is so important to be honest with your partner. have all 'issues' resolved before the wedding. actually all the bull should have been taken care of when the relationship became serious. if such a thing does happen then it's good that the person found out before the ceremony is complete

They will be asked what the objection is for, if it is a valid reason life for instance, they can prove one of the couple are already married the ceremony will be stopped.
If it is not a valid reason it is just ignored and they move on.

If there is a LAWFUL reason why they should not be getting married, then the officiate has to stop the proceedings. Please keep in mind what is considered lawful varies from state to state, but across the board proof is required to substantiate a claim.
