    Does anyone have a list or something of all the "Legal" things that have to get accomplished when you get hitched??

    Name change things I pretty much know all of, but what else??

    So much happening!!! haha

    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! =]
