With the increasing of homeland security and the protection of muggleborns at an all time high, the Ministry has implemented new regulations concerning the marriage of a muggleborn wizard or witch to any pure or halfblooded member of wizarding society. The benefits of a marriage to these two blood types is not to be tampered with or abused and the Ministry has created the Marriage Act to ensure that its laws are being followed as they were initially meant to be.

A quick overview of the Marriage Act:



  • Beginning on October 6th, 1979, Muggleborn wizards and witches who married to pure and halfbloods within the past five years will report to the Ministry for an exam that proves the marriage was made out of commitment to one another and not to violate the protection laws implemented for the benefit of muggleborns.

  • If an exam is failed, the muggleborn wizard or witch in question will be sentenced to prison for a time determined on the duration of the 'marriage' and other surrounding elements. The marriage will be abolished in the eyes of the Ministry. 90% correct answers is required for the exam.

  • Exams will be conducted orally and separately to ensure that cheating does not occur.

  • An exam schedule will be mailed to those in question before Monday, as the exams will occur through the week.



  • SCHEDULE
    Monday: (Last Names) A - E
    Tuesday: F - J
    Wednesday: K - O
    Thursday: P - T
    Friday: U - Z

    No, sorry, not really. I asked around and they're pretty damn serious about it.

    We've got this under control though, they'll be sending out questionnaires this weekend and all we have to do is know what is on there.

    YOU EAT DIFFERENT THINGS NATE, WHAT IF YOU SAY PANCAKES AND I SAY SCRAMBLED EGGS LIKE NO ONE EATS THE SAME BREAKFAST EVERYDAY---

    We were engaged for maybe a month, they're not going to like that. I didn't even know your name until three months before, what if they find that suspicious!

    But we've been married for more than a year and have two children.

    We were married in front of our families even fucking Avery was there and I didn't know your name either. Well, not your full one because that would be really creepy.

    Love, I'm not worried. You shouldn't either.

    Like Scott starting school.
