These forms, called \u201cKekkon Todoke\u201d in Japanese, are a little bit different than those in the West. Mainly the difference is that once you and your soon-to-be spouse sign it, you are legally married right there, as opposed to most Western countries where you do paperwork beforehand and it is official after a ceremony. Zexy claims proudly in its pages that the Mario and Peach Kekkon Todoke can be filled out and will be a legally binding certificate upon submission!<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/5\/original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/5\/603x495.jpg\" width=\"603\" height=\"495\" alt=\"35975_01.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/3\/original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/3\/292x245.jpg\" width=\"292\" height=\"245\" alt=\"o3842276014011680615.jpg\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/4\/original.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/10\/random_theres_a_mario_and_peach_marriage_license_available_in_japan\/attachment\/4\/292x245.jpg\" width=\"292\" height=\"245\" alt=\"35975_02.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>There are also wedding invitations with Mario and Peach in wedding clothes, styled like their new <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2017\/06\/youll_want_to_marry_these_super_mario_odyssey_amiibo\">amiibo figures.<\/a> A waterproof passport case is included as well.
