A License To Wed
April 21st, 2008 @ 1:50 pm by Mrs. Jasmine
Mr. Jasmine and I are back from our mini-vacation to sunny Los Angeles– and yes, we can’t believe we missed an earthquake in IL while we were in CA. We had such a wonderful trip. Not only did we complete everything on our to-do list, but we also had a great time hanging out with family and friends. It was really rejuvenating to get some sunshine and spend time with loved ones.
On our first full day in Los Angeles, Mr. Jasmine and I set out to get our marriage license. The day before, I filled out the marriage license application online. Thank you to everyone who advised me to keep the “date of marriage” blank– I was so confused as to why it wouldn’t let me proceed unless our wedding date was 15 days away! We drove to the Beverly Hills Municipal Courthouse, which is a fantastic place to get your license. Not only was it virtually empty when we showed up, but the staff was friendly and efficient. We were out the door in less than ten minutes!
As you can see, we were very excited to have our license!

Congratulations! I wish I would have taken a picture of how giddy we were to get ours. I kept giggling though the hold-your-hand-up-and-repeat-after-me parts.
I can’t believe you did everything on your to-do list! Congrats! Such a cute picture!
Aw, you two are so cute I can’t stand it! Congrats on this exciting step in the process!
congratulations! I texted all of my friends when we left the County Registrar’s office. This is one of the things that you do that reels you in and makes your pending wedding feel so realistic……………..

About Me: I'm a happy-go-lucky, imaginative spirit trapped in the body of a lawyer. I love reading, shopping, dining out, and exploring my beloved adopted city of Chicago with my fiance. We're planning the wedding of our dreams in my hometown of Los Angeles and we're excited to incorporate our cherished Indian/Pakistani customs and traditions.
I think we need to start a cluster of photos of people w/their license in front of the Beverly Hills courthouse!
Congrats!!!! It’s getting really real!!!
