You can marry under some tree where there are just you two. That is not a problem. The problem starts after marriage.  Wish you all the best. Marry without doubt.  Happy Maried Lyf.

Y e s.  (Because both of you are now not married)  Let your husband carry the papers of his legal separation.  Carry personal identities, age proof, address proof and independent witnesses with you.  Get the marriage registered  with Registrar of Marriages at the earliest.

"my husband legally separated" What do you mean?

Is the man having Decree of divorce from the Family Court? If not than he's not legally eligible to marry again. If he has decree of divorce he can marry you a widow anywhere as you so desire. You can get married in the Arya Samaj mandir if you both are Hindus. You can get married under the Special Marriage Act,1954 the civil form of marriage. The marriage officer or register of marriages of your district will get you married in presence of 3 witnesses and also register the marriage, issuing you valid marriage certificate which is sufficient proof of your valid marriage.

If two human beings want to get married..there is always a way...for sure.  But, Raksh*ta's answer above made me laugh loudly.

She seems like someone who has experience of a bad marriage.
