We received a video of a bridal party being approached by a New Orleans Parks and Parkways employee for using Jackson Square without a permit. Click this post’s title to see the video.
New Orleans Weddings magazine has also posted a new article offering tips for brides or grooms who want to change their name after the wedding. We have some additional tips to make the change go easier:
Order multiple copies of the marriage certificate. Also, call ahead or check out the websites of agencies like the Department of Motor Vehicles to make sure you have any additional paperwork needed.
When changing your bills, credit cards, and other accounts you can order your annual credit report to use as a checklist. Visit www.annualcreditreport.com to order your yearly report.
Finally if you are leaving the country for the honeymoon wait until you return to change your information. It’s important your passport name matches you itinerary and tickets. While the TSA at Louis Armstrong International Airport are some of the nicest people I’ve met in the security business, your mileage may vary.
