Charles-Camilla marriage given legal OK
9/3/2005 10:30

Britain's Registrar General on Tuesday dismissed 11 objections to the marriage of Prince Charles and his longtime lover Camilla Parker Bowles.

The principal grounds for objecting to the April 8 wedding in Windsor town hall were that the law did not allow the heir to the throne to marry in a civil ceremony.

"I am satisfied that none of these objections should obstruct the issue of a (marriage) certificate," said Len Cook, Registrar General for England and Wales.

The run-up to the royal wedding has been bedeviled by confusion with the venue having to be switched from Windsor Castle to the town hall after a mix-up over marriage licenses.
