Sir, if you are performing marriage under Hindu marriage act, in such case 2 witnesses are required at the time of marriage. If the marriage is performed under Special marriage act than 3 witnesses are required. After getting the marriage certificate update your documents for surname change and also inform relevant authorities and institutions regard the change in name.
