Under Hindu Marriage Act, both of you can marry without changing your religion or caste. You must satisfy the conditions such as both should have attained majority and of sound mind. It has to solemnize according to Hindu rituals like saptapadi. There is no requirement of notice period. Then register the marriage in the local sub register office by providing documents such as proof of age, address proof, photographs and two witnesses to the marriage.

To solemnize a court marriage in India if you are a Hindu marrying a Buddhist, follow the following procedure: Obtain advance notice of intended marriage from Marriage Registrar for at least 30 days before the ceremony. Documents required: Age proof, address proof, photographs, and affidavits proving no hindrance to the marriage. Bring three witnesses along with you on the date of the ceremony. On the date set, present at the said court where a Marriage Officer will solemnize the marriage and after which, you will receive your marriage certificate.
