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

We got married March 13, 2008 and still have not gotten our "million dollar check" It's killing me. I want to get this name change on the move!!!

this may qualify as a dumb question, but do we have to "do something" to let the US gov't know that we are officially/legally married or does all that happen when we file for a name change? When my sis got married here a few years ago her pastor took the certificate they signed and filed it with the county. Guess I should have looked into all this before the wedding- lol- oops!

I did read (I think on the US goverment travel website) that they recommend you take a copy of your wedding certificate to your local county. That way there is always a copy on file for you.

We got our official wedding certificates in the mail yesterday! Just short of 2 months. Only thing is, they spelled 12th wrong... wonder if that matters?
