How can you find out if you are legally married?

Answer 1

You can contact the County in which you think you got married and if they have a record on file at the county recorders office then you are indeed legally married. But if you said the oath unto God and meant it then I would also consider you legally married as well. If the couple obtained a marriage license in the manner prescribed by the state in which the marriage took place and received a certificate of marriage from the person who was licensed to officiate a marriage, then the marriage is legal. If the couple reside in a state that allows common law marriages and have lived according to the state's requirements of establishing such a union, then the marriage is legal. Common law marriages would not be a matter of public record nor does the law recognize a marriage based on only religious belief or ceremony as being legal.

Answer 2

Your marriage certificate should have been sent to the local court to be registered. If your city is big enough, you may be able to access the records there. Of course, if your spouse is still married to someone else, or does not have a divorce decree, then it is not valid.

Answer 3

You have a marriage certificate from the county. Which means the license was properly obtained, signed by the officiating individual and the proper number of witnesses. A copy can be obtained from the county courthouse where the license was filed.

Answer 4

You fall in love.

First of all, you become fiances, with an engagement ring, to signal you are not single. Then you plan the wedding. Dress, outfit, decor, and ect. When The day comes, the groom gives you a wedding ring and asks you to marry him. Once you say yes, you go to your wedding place 3-4 days later. You go to the guy/girl who will get you married. But you need to get it certified and legal. Most people like to get married on Valentines Day. Every year you celebrate when you got married. That is called an 'annaversary.' A honeymoon is the same thing. Its a mini-wedding you go on after you get married. Hope this helped ^.^

Answer 5
