No legal requirement mandates sending a notice to family after a court marriage under the Special Marriage Act or personal laws. However, if married under the Special Marriage Act, a public notice is issued before solemnization. Informing family is a personal choice unless required for legal or social reasons. Seek legal advice if facing objections or threats from relatives.

Sir, sending a notice to the family is not a legal requirement. While the court marriage is legally valid, informing the family can help avoid misunderstandings and possible conflicts. However, there is no law mandating that a notice must be sent to the family post-marriage. If needed, you can consult a lawyer for specific advice based on your situation.
