Hello everyone,
Does anyone know what is a marriage bann? Is it just an announcement that son and so are getting married? Or do we have to submit all our papers at this time?
When do we submit all our papers on the day of the rendezvous at the city hall when we get married, or before? And Marriage Banns is is just both of our names
on the list?
Thanks!!

Also, we are planning to get married in the winter sometime in November or December, do you think the city hall will be closed during these times since it's right around the holiday season?
And last question, once married, if I am n a tourist visa, will I still have the 3 months to stay and then return to apply for visa, or do I have to return right away. I should probably get married the first week I arrive in France, that way when we wait to get the marriage papers (if it's not handed already to us at the spot), I will have plenty time, not going over the 3 months legal time frame.
And as for translating /notarizing my foreign language documents/birth certificates/citizenship papers into French, will I be OK if I contact my local French Consulate in California and get a list of translator's who can do it for me. Will their French counterparts at the city hall accept this, or do they have their own set of translators they want me to use?
Thank you!
