wedding certificate frustrations!

So we've been waiting one and a half months for our marriage certificate. Well..we just got a letter from the county clerk stating that there was a stain on our license so we have to track down our officiate and have him send in a request for a new license along with another $30 and have him fill it out again! It was a stupid drop of water! It didn't even smudge the writing! So ladies, lesson learned..put your certificate in a zip lock bag or something. Just don't let it get wet! Those people at the county clerks office are psycho particular! I'm so frustrated right now!

    Oh great, we got married August 15 and are still waiting for our certificate. I hope it comes soon rather than a letter like you ladies got.

    Ours was sent back to us TWICE, because our witnesses and officiant didn't slash through n/a boxes... geez, give me a break, these people have way too much time on their hands.

    Oh, no I'm so sorry ladies!  Now I'm worried because I have no idea what the deal with ours was.  Our officiant took and was going to mail it in, so I never even saw signatures or anything.  Yikes!

    starsailor - i would think you should have yours by now. You should call the county clerk because it's been over 2 months for you!
