We are back in California....how great it is to have my heart next to me.

Now.......we need a marriage certificate.....Los Angeles county and Orange County both look like they take 5-6 weeks to process a Certificate.

Any suggestions. I would like to get the copy of my AOS and file ASAP. Does anyone know where in Southern California I can get a copy immediately? Is Vegas a good option?

Thanks everyone.

First thing is to Get married, through a justice of peace if you do not have a wedding planned,

Then after your married your marriage cert is sent to the CountyClerk/ registrars office.

You can request an official marriage liscense from the county you were married in.

We got our in 2.5 weeks, we were married in Santa barbara at the court house we used a Notary Public who was alos ordained minister to adminsiter our marriage , she then sent all the parerwork in to report the marriage to the County of Los Angeles ( even though she m,arried us in Santa Barbara her office is in Torrance)

We then sent off for the certified copy from county clerk takes aprox. 2-3 weeks.

Vegas may be quicker.

Is it 5-6 weeks even if you get married at the courthouse? My husband and I were married by the Clerk of Court at the courthouse, and he personally gave us multiple copies of our marriage certificate immediately following the ceremony. It doesn't get much faster than that!
