    Going through all of this right now. Just got back from the honeymoon. It’s honestly crazy how hard it is to figure out how to do this normal stuff.

    Great video! Would love to hear about all the little bits you have to do a few months before the wedding - like seating plan, name card, worship songs etc! My wedding is in August so will need to start doing all those little bits soon and scared I'm going to forget something xx

    Great video !! I hope people are still checking in all these months later ! Because lots of young couples can glean so many important things from this !
    Thank you for the time and effort it took to cover these topics. ❤️🥀

    Oh my gosh, this was freaking great! I'm getting married in just about 4 months and I needed to know all this info. Thank you for taking the time to make this video!!!

    This process is so different and so much more complicated than in the UK, my brain feels fried! If you choose to change your name it gets done automatically when the marriage certificate is signed and then you just use that and ID to change your name on everything else. You also take your marriage certificate away with you on the day so you could start changing things that day if you really wanted 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Super helpful video, thanks girl! I saved this video for when I get married next year. It's good to know that it takes a few months to get all the name changing stuff done.

    Can you change your first name at the same time? Will it be a separate process after taking husband's last name?

    Can you use your current passport (that has your old name on it) to travel? even after you've changed your name on your social security card?

    • @wge621
      @wge621 4 роки тому

      Yes, you just need to bring a copy of your marriage certificate

    I loved this. It’s almost 2 months after my wedding and just starting this process. Also can I ask what lipstick you used? I love the color. If it’s just natural it’s amazing 🤩

    Also if you get utility bills online and sent to you through email you HAVE TO PRINT THEM OUT. They don’t take digital forms.

    I recently got married at San Francisco City Hall. And I still don't understand why that can't mail us a free one. Is it that big of a deal? 😑

    Tip: when you pay for your marriage certificate, request for atleast 2 copies. They will make give you as many copies as you need just in case.

  • @evegem8978

    How did you find all of this information after changing your name? Once you change it do you have to change everything to your now marriage name or can you just leave as is?

    During the process at no point do you have to change your actual birth certificate , right?

  • @kaitlinv07
    @kaitlinv07 5 років тому

    In regards to getting your new passport, you should be able to just go to any United States Post office and get it there. I just went and renewed mine and it sounds like its the same process if you're getting a new one because of your last name change. Call your local post office and they should be able to give you more info on it!

    I did the whole passport process and got my new one in the mail within two weeks; it was really quick.
    I also got my new social security card and new drivers license sent to me within a week 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Hey Michel, did you two ever consider the option that both give up their surname and adopt a completely new one?
    It's called "meshing", one of the things you could do:
    1. Combine both names and fuse them together, so for example "Brox" and "Thornton" would become "Broxton"
    2. If it's complicated to just fuse both names, choose a few letters from both and create a nice name with them
    3. Choose something which you both love as a template for a new surname (for example if both love swimming something which has to do with water or the Ocean etc.)
    3. Choose something completely different like a japanese name (like Satori) if both plan to live in Japan or a german name (like Müller) if they'd plan to live in Germany/Austria/Switzerland and so on
    I think that it's an interesting & romantic idea but seems to be rather rare, even around North America, South America, Europe and Australia ^-^

    What if you don't have a passport? Would a State Id or driver's license work just fine? Or, when you say "passport" are you just referencing just some form of a second photo ID?

    • @pc10lovzyou
      @pc10lovzyou 5 років тому

      Passports stand in for either a formal ID (like license) or proof of citizenship (like birth certificate). If you don't have a passport you'll probably need your license and birth certificate for applying for a new social security card and a new license

    Wonder how long will this man taking practice sustain? If this is truly on equal partnership. What is becoming one to do with the groom’s name? What makes his legacy more important than the woman’s? This practice has disturbing roots. And even in modern day age this is in mainstream.
