After wedding-change name

leslie910

Hey all!  I just got married a little more that two weeks ago and need to change my name and have no idea how to go about doing that.  We were married in Cook county but live in Will county (if that matters).

Thanks!!!!

You have to get your marriage license from cook county and then you can change your name. You can go to either the social security office or the DMV first. Make sure to bring your marriage license, social security card, state id, and $30 bucks for your new driver's license. They took my picture at the DMV so make sure to look nice! I went right when the offices opened, and got both changes made in 45 min. Good luck!
