3. Fill in the Bride's details and the Groom's details side by side: name, father's name, mother's name, date of birth, gender, mark of identity and mobile number (these are marked as required), then Aadhaar number, email, marital status, nationality, religion and occupation.
4. Under each person's address, fill in country, state, permanent address and temporary address. The passport and social security lines are for those who have them.
