Does a divorce occur if the wedding ceremony takes place in a manner that you rejected? If so, what is the solution? And does a conditional divorce occur merely by uttering the words, or by the fulfillment of the condition?

If a legal marriage contract has not been concluded with the fiancée, her divorce does not take effect. However, after the legal marriage contract, if the mentioned phrase is merely a promise of divorce, then nothing takes effect thereby. But if it is a conditional divorce dependent on her consent to an unlawful wedding celebration, then it takes effect upon her consent. A conditional divorce only takes effect when the condition is met. If the divorce occurs before consummation or seclusion, then reconciliation is not valid except with a new contract.
