For everyone that went the civil marriage route... did you have witnesses? I cannot find if Georgia requires witnesses for a civil marriage. I recently moved to Georgia and my family won't be present for the civil marriage. My fiance family is miles away! I am hoping we can have an intimate ceremony in Georgia.

We got married in a court in Orlando and we had plenty of family to be witnesses but they didn't ask. So, I guess they don't require it - but in any case, any person can be a witness - so the court employees can be witnesses too if needed - they all enjoy the 'little' weddings that take place from time to time. Good Luck

Since our visa took much longer than we anticipated, we'd already done the celebrating with family thing, so the two of us went to the court house alone. A couple of the judge's assistants were our witnesses and they seemed more than happy to do it (and to make sure that we got a copy of the certificate that very day).

We had a civil ceremony in Georgia with a judge. My friend who stood up with me and my Dad served as our witnesses. Two were required.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
