In most European countries a church marriage alone is not considered valid, so pre-church service the marriage certificate of the registration offcie has to be shown. For Royal weddings the "civil" part is handled after the church wedding in a side room of the church where the wedding took place - at least that's what I gathered from the European Royal weddings of the past years.
I didn’t realize that about European countries. Interesting. I guess people are focused on the civil ceremony aspect because it was the first time it was required for the Windsor’s, and a future king, no less.
