Giving notice when marrying in Vegas

K8_2408, 8 May, 2012 at 21:38 Posted on Honeymoons & Getting Married Abroad 0 3

We've just changed our plans from getting married in the UK to getting married in Vegas.

Do we need to still give notice? I have tried googling but am a little bit confused! It seems that some websites I've come across say that you might need to to get the certificate of impediment but not sure whether that is the case for America.

I know what we have to do in Vegas to get the license but just want to make sure everything is legal from this end too.

    We're getting married in Vegas in November and according to our wedding planner we just need to get the marriage license and don't have to give notice. I think this is why Vegas is known for quick 'shotgun' weddings.

    No you don't need to give notice. As you already know you will go and get a marriage licence from the County Clerk's Office when you get to Vegas, prior to the wedding.

    Then you take that along to your wedding ceremony to show the Reverend.

    It's all really easy! ?

    Thanks for confirming adelly!

    I just couldn't get my head round that for a wedding to be legal in the UK you have to give notice (civil), but I thought maybe as we're both UK residents we would have to do something over here to make it 'legal' too.

    It just seemed to be all to easy!
