(England and Wales)
'Mothers of brides and grooms in England and Wales will now be added to marriage certificates for the first time.
Until now, the document only included the names of the fathers of the couple, but a change to the Marriage Act means both parents will be included.'
Hooray for the mothers of the brides! And grooms! About bloody time all these invisible women were acknowledged.
