2007 and Jan/Feb 2008 Riu Ocho Rios Brides - when did you receive your certificate?

All right!! Today on my lunch hour Canada Post arrived with an envelope from the Riu Ocho Rios by registered mail!! Yahoo!! Our official marriage certificate has arrived - 2 months and 1.5 weeks from our wedding date!

Now... where do I even start with this name change stuff? Le sigh....

Congrats You must be so excited to have it in your hands. Good luck with the name change process!

Congrats Janelle!!! Mine should be right behind yours.

Sorry, I have no idea where to start with name changing stuff....

Hopefully yours arrives in the next few days!! Then we can struggle through this name changing stuff together!

i know there was a thread posted but i dont know if it applies to canada brides. maybe when you find out you could make a thread filling all you girls up north in on the correct way to change your name in canada!

Good idea! I'll do that!

Whoooohooooo! This is one of the parts I'm most worried about. Getting our certificate once were are married and have left Jamaica. Oh well, no worries right?

The Social security office should be loads of fun for you and changing your name....

Oh wait, do you have to go thru that in Canada....

I emailed Chandlyn, and she said 6-8 weeks . . .

To you Canadian brides, you can't start the process with the handwritten one we were sent home with? That was going to be my intent, have any of you tried it?

I received my official marriage certificate - yeah!!!!!! Now, the name changing process!

 

For those of you who changed your name already, do you think I should go to the DMV first or the social security office??
