When a woman marries, in order to legally take her husbands last name, she needs to get a copy of her marriage certificate, go to the SS office, wait hours upon hours to change her last name. Then it's off to the DMV, home to call every credit card company, insurance co, stock co, etc. Banking info must be changed in person but only after you have received your new ID. or You could just wait for your drivers licence renewal to come up, tell them your were married provide a certificate and let them hyphenate your name. Bottom line, it's easier.
