We went to get our marriage license yesterday! I was quite excited about it on my drive home yesterday after work and was reading through it at a stop light when I read something that sent me into a panic. The part where the officient writes her name, title, etc. states something like this: "I, _________, a (pastor) residing in the city of ___, in the County of _______, in the State of Idaho...."
WHAT?! Our officient lives in Indiana. Yep, I flew into panic mode. Then irritated mode. Then I-must-research-to-be-sure-this-is-ok mode. The Recorders office was closed.
I called this morning and got it all straightened out: the officient just needs to CROSS OUT "Idaho" and write in the proper state. SERIOUSLY?!
Oh well, panic mode is gone....for now!

haha, thats funny! our officiant had to write some sort of letter or something proving he was an acutal pastor in Illinois.. the things they make us do... ;) glad you got it worked out.
ReplyDeleteSounds like an official fix to me dude. I wouldn't worry about it! HAHA!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like me. I would have totally panicked too. In my mind it would make sense that there might be a law that you could only get married by someone licensed in Idaho.
