Does anyone know whether that five-year penalty is actually enforceable, or was the registrar describing a rule people rarely see applied?

Peller's surprise makes sense; many people hear marriage vows as personal promises, not something connected to possible criminal penalties.

The headline is striking, but a registrar mentioning a possible penalty does not automatically mean every broken vow leads to jail.

Couples registering should ask clear questions about the legal terms before signing, rather than relying on assumptions from viral clips.
