Send us your date, roughly how many guests you expect, and whether you need the legal marriage as well. We'll look into availability at Masjid Taqwa and usually reply within 15 minutes, inshaAllah. If the date does not work there, we'll suggest other options in Toronto.
Do we need a marriage licence?
Only if you want the marriage legally registered. In that case you must obtain a marriage licence from your province (in Ontario, a city hall or municipal office) before the ceremony and bring it on the day. For a religious-only nikah, no licence is needed.
Can you also arrange an imam?
Yes. Tick the box on the enquiry form and we'll match you with an imam serving Toronto who can conduct the ceremony in your language. Every imam listing shows clearly whether they are a registered marriage officiant or perform the religious ceremony only.
