Dear Prishu,

Welcome to the Ecuador forum.

If you read Spanish, you can get information you need from the web pages of Registro Civil .. www.registrocivil.gob.ec ....

If you post again, you might tell us the nationality of the person you plan to marry.  There may be marital options less expensive and involved in your case than what you are planning.
