For the application of article 75 of the Civil Code, the mayor may, unless the public prosecutor objects, allocate any communal building, other than that of the community centre, located within the commune, to the celebration of marriages.
The public prosecutor ensures that the mayor’s decision guarantees the conditions for a solemn, public and republican celebration. He also ensures that the conditions relating to the proper maintenance of civil status are met.
The conditions for informing and objecting to the public prosecutor are laid down by decree.
