Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

I am flying in on Wednesday before the wedding so that I can purchase my marriage license on Th. However, we just realized that Th is Veteran's Day. Will the office be closed??

Re: Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

Veterans Day is a federal holiday, so all government offices will be closed that day. I would assume that would also apply to city and local government offices, too. They should be open Friday, though.

Re: Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

Yes, federal holiday all schools, banks and government offices around the country are closed.

Re: Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

They are closed on Veterans day- becuase I have jury duty that week, and the notice said to start calling on Monday night.

Re: Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

As well they should be! The real reason behind the holiday is that it's my birthday.

But shhhhh - don't let the government know I spilled the beans

Re: Oh no!...Veteran's Day -no marriage license?

bare in mind that they are not valid immediately. you may want to get it on wed. or even before then!!!

we are getting married the day before you.. and we're getting it next month!

What time will you be in on Wednesday? some offices are open a litle late, but normally they are open till 3 or 4.

If you get it Friday you have to wait 24 hours, so you'd have to go FIRST thing. They mark the time you got it on the license.

Do you need to bring it to your rehearsal?
(my pastor reccomends that, so we don't forget it)

Although, I se knwo your FFILis your officiant,so he might let it go if you don't have it at the rehearsal

Thanks girls. I guess we have to taKe the red eye in and just go right after we get off the plane on Wednesday. Good thing I realized this now and not later!
