How long before my wedding should I begin the name change
process?
Once you are engaged, you can begin the name change process.
Since there are many forms to complete, we advise that brides
and grooms begin thinking about the
name change process months before they say "I do."
Completed forms, however, should not be sent until after
the wedding.
2)
Isn't The Name Change Kit for Brides just a bunch of forms
thrown in a box!
No,
our kit is a 4 part system of bride
name change and groom
change of marital status notification. Each part works
together to take a bride from pre-post planning. A few copy
cats of our kit idea have cropped up, these are the ones
who simply throw forms in a box or put a few forms on a
CD, and call it a name change kit or guide or planner. Unfortunately,
these "forms sellers" are confusing brides and
grooms, leading them to believe that they are being offered
the completest name change and the most sincerest help.
Our kit addresses the simplest to most complex name change
notification…. The bride and groom with a computer or without
a computer…. Even the career professional who travels regularly
can coordinate their notification from a secure on-line
personalized notebook and organizer included with their
kit purchase. Our kit is a 4 part system - it is quick and
easy and specific and a more complete name change notification
help!

changing their name but still need to notify government
agencies of a change in marital status.

do I still need to notify anyone of my change in marital
status?
