Name Change

Sorry if this has been asked before... I tried to look through the NJ forums, but so far didn't see anything like this.

After we get married we are both changing our last name to a new last name... Will this be a problem because our marriage license will have our former last names? Not sure how this works if it's not the typical girl changes her last name to guy's last name. I know in NJ to change your name outside of marriage you typically have to petition the court, etc. I am really hoping I don't have to go through that hassle. Was wondering if anyone else had experience with this? Can we just go about our name change process and just "pick" a new last name by going through SS like everyone else?

Thanks!
