Decree, judicial determination of the rights and obligations of the parties to a civil action. Judgments are generally classified as final.
Absolute, term used to denote whatever is in no way dependent on or limited by anything else. Thus, in ethics an absolute value is one that is good.
Final decree is the concluding judgment issued by a court at the end of the legal procedure, finalizing its decision. Final decree is issued by a court when intermediate or temporary orders are issued by them during the hearing. Eg. interlocutory decrees of divorce are issued to give a chance for reconciliation, then a final decree is issued in the divorce petition.

In the UK a marriage is dissolved when the court issues a Decree Absolute. This normally follows the issue of a decree nisi. The Decree Absolute is the final document that means the marriage is legaly at an end. Once the Decree Absolute has been issued the previously married couple can now legally re-marry.
Divorce documents are often legalised by apostille to prove that a marriage is now over in another country. A woman may wish to revert to her maiden name. You may also be requested to get an apostille on a Decree Absolute if you intend to marry again in a country outside the UK.

When you get a copy of the marriage certificate, it probably offers the best boost to genealogy research of any document. Not only does it tell you the exact date of the marriage and the full names of the couple, it also includes their ages (however, it might just say "full," meaning of age; around 75% of marriages certificates just list "full" until the early 1850s. If it says "minor" or "under age" that means between the ages of 12 and 20 for a girl and 14-20 for a boy, at least until 1929, when the lower age limit for marriage became 16, giving you a fair amount of exact information for your family tree.
