Things I can think of off the top of my head:
Obtain marriage license
File marriage license
Obtain official copies of marriage certificate
Change name with DMV
Change name with Social Security
Change name on bank accounts and insurance
Change name on real property
Update will/trust
Update insurance beneficiary information
I'm not sure exactly what legal stuff you mean, but for me it was mostly name change stuff. I had to change my name at work, at the bank, student loans, memberships. And then of course the obvious drivers license and social security card.
Also make sure to change your w-4 at work (if you work?) to say that you're married and that may also change your exemptions. I was on my parents insurance still since I was a student so I had to get that switched over. Cell phone bill, joint bank account, car insurance, that's all I can think of. Everything really just fell into place.. its surprising how easy it is so change your name! You're so close, congrats! =]
