04. Void or Voidable Marriage

On Valentine's Day 1996, Elias and Fely, both single and 25 years of age, went to the city hall where they sought out a filter to help them obtain a quickie marriage. For a fee, the fixer produced an ante-dated marriage license for them, issued by the Civil Registrar of a small remote municipality. He then brought them to a licensed minister in a restaurant behind the city hall, and the latter solemnized their marriage right there and then.

1) Is their marriage valid, void or voidable? Explain.
