This may be granted on one of two grounds: either that the marriage is void, or that it is voidable. A void marriage is one which was invalid *ab initio* and has therefore never, in fact, existed*.* Section 11 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 sets out the situations in which a marriage will be void, namely: *ab initio* *.* - That the marriage did not fulfill the requirements of the various Marriage Acts; - A party was underage; - The parties being too closely related; - That one party was already married or in a civil partnership; - That the marriage is not between a male and a female; - That one party, where the marriage is polygamous, was domiciled in England and Wales at the time of the marriage. In contrast to this, a voidable marriage is one which has technically existed, but can be held to be invalid. The declaration of invalidity takes effect from the date of the decree. S.12 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 sets out the grounds upon which a marriage may be voidable: **If you're considering or going through a divorce, click below for a free initial consultation with
