My Fiance and I are having a self solemnized marriage in Colorado for emergency purposes,but literally no ceremony or anything, just signatures. Our ceremony is planned for next September in San Diego County. We want a marriage license/certificate with that date. Is it possible to get a new marriage license/certificate with the big wedding date? I read in Colorado statutes that a couple may obtain a new license by stating they are married, but I don't know how California works. I know I don't "NEED" one, but I want to know if I can actually get a new one?
