Premarital sex in Iran is punishable by death. So what's a loving couple to do?
No problem. They can avoid hanging, stoning or beheading by simply going to their friendly local cleric for a temporary marriage license. The license can be for as long as 99 years or as short as 30 minutes. This allows the the couple to share a hotel room without fear of death.
The woman must provide either a divorce decree or parental consent. No paperwork? No problem. A bribe will serve just as well.
