Do you sign your Maiden Name on the Marriage Certificate?

I'm getting married in a few weeks and was wondering how i'm going to sign the certificate %26gt;.%26lt;Do you sign your Maiden Name on the Marriage Certificate?
Yes. That's what I did. You can even continue to use your maiden name all thorough the rest of your life if you wish. It's YOUR name. After you are married you can use whatever name you feel comfortable with. You can even hyphenate both your surnames together if you like. :-)Do you sign your Maiden Name on the Marriage Certificate?
It depends on where you live. In my state and county, the name you sign on the actual marriage license is your new official name. It has to be signed on the license before you can go change it at the social security office. And what you sign on the license is your married name. If you want to change it ..you have to get a judge's order to do so.
You sign it with your legal name at the time of signing. Which would be your maiden name, since you can't change your name with out the signed certificate...





Think about it. John Smith married Jane Doe. The only name she can sign is Jane Doe. Signing Jane Smith would mean the wrong people got married...
You sign your maiden name when you apply for the license and you sign your married name when the official has you sign it after the ceremony.
Sign it with his name, unless you're keeping your maiden name.
Yes, because getting married doesn't automatically change your name. You have to apply for a new license, SS card etc before your name change is complete.
Hold on, do you mean the marriage license?? Cause then it would be yes, when you are officially married you will sign your new last name..
maybe...MUHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!!!!!
yes because you're name's not legally changed, until you change it.
sign your maiden name. until you change it.
