Something about the holidays brings out the romance in people. Scrolling through your social media feeds, amongst the pictures of dogs playing in the snow and glistening Christmas trees, chances are you see quite a few engagement pictures as well! Apparently, there’s no time like the holidays to ask someone to spend the rest of their life with you.
If you fall into that engagement category, congrats! Getting engaged is an exciting time and with it comes the joy of planning a wedding. Many people complain that it’s stressful, but honestly planning your big day is fun too! You get to pick a venue, dress, decorations, and add special touches that will make it a day to remember. While sorting through linens and invitation samples, don’t forget to consider the official part of the wedding, the actual getting married part.
You might not realize it, but there are some formalities that need to be completed when you get married. One of those, is getting your marriage license signed by your officiant. To do that, you’ll need to apply in advance for a marriage license at your local courthouse or government office. The application process is simple enough, but there are some documents you will need to bring with you.
Depending on the state that you are getting married in, you will need a form of ID, Social Security Card or Number, Proof of Address, and a form of payment. Some states also require that you have your birth certificate, and if you’ve been married before, an official copy of your divorce decree. Sounds easy enough, but what if you can’t find your birth certificate or divorce decree?
