Valid in one state, valid in all (full faith and credit clause of the Constitution.)\n(That ia something some states worry about gay marriage -- if one state allows it, it should be that all states have to honor it.  Some states are trying to get around that -- but it is a side issue here.)\n\nIF you want yuo can get married fairly quickly in Caliifornia too, but Vegas is reportedly very easy, and it will count in California too.

Take the test in California. The same as the bar. The laws are different so you may need to take a course before you take the exam.

Some counties have it online but I don't think that other than 'going through them by hand down there' is it gonna be free.. in fact I doubt that you can?  Does he know what county they were supposedly married in?  Because he's the one that's supposedly married, if there is a record there, he can get a copy...but it will still cost.  I do not know of a national 'marriage license search' for free.. and there are the online ones that are available for a fee.\n\n** Boy, I dunno..... if you have no 'idea' where they got married, the only other way to 'know' is if she changed her last name (does she have the same last name?  If so, did she change it at Social Security - if so - he could call there to see if it's been reported he's married?).  The other thing is, if she won't produce 'proof' or give a county that they were married in, get a lawyer, and 'subpeona' the records.  She probably is BS'in you guys, but that's gonna be the only way to know for sure, if you can't find out any other way.....\n\nThe ONLY state I know for sure that does NOT have a 24 hour or better waiting period is Nevada (i.e. Reno, Las Vegas) and I know because I got married there.

Try contacting Pagan, Wiccan or ULC groups in your area.  The wedding may still not be legal (I'm not sure what the current state of affairs is in regards to that in LA), but at least you'd have a spiritual ceremony that you'd want.\n\nhttp://www.witchvox.com/vn/hm/usca.html\nhttp://ulc.org/index.php?destination=Directory&state=California

Get married by the Justice of the Peace first, then come home for a church wedding. Your priest will talk to you about it.\n\nWe got married in Hawaii four years ago, and are just now getting all the paperwork straightened out for the church wedding.\n\nWhatever you do, don't let a cleric marry you, or the church may reject your application.

If you married someone in Peru while you were still married in the USA, your Peru marriage is not valid. The law prohibits what you did, and even, if you didn't know what was right or wrong, it doesn't excuse you from liability.\nIn other words, you were married TWICE at the same time, and it is not valid.\nI am not sure about having to get a divorce in Peru, so you should probably contact a lawyer to take care of any possible future legal issues, such as jail, for example.

The other person is correct...it really depends on where you want to live after marriage. Here is a message board link with a lot of postings similar to your situation. I hope you can find some answers there:\nhttps://www.visapro.com/Message-Board/showthread.php?s=08b8e677e6b756e1437f1409b5980787&t=7760

some states have reciprocal agreements with one another--for example if you have a teaching license in one state it will be honored in another. if CA and AZ do not have that reciprocity, then you will need to fulfill the teaching requirements (tests, classes, etc.) for CA. however, if you are simply in school in CA and do not have certification for AZ yet, then you just need to follow the certification requirements for CA and not worry about AZ.

First, wait until you're married to do this, not while you're still engaged. \nGo to the Land Titles Office, here it's located in our local Courthouse, and tell them what you want to do. Fill out a bit of paperwork,pay a bit of money, $75.00 I think it is and you have to have both of your signatures witnessed by a Notary, but that's pretty much it.

I'm not familiar with California law, but I'd have to believe that to become married, both people must be living. So, the answer would be, Yes, it is illegal.

In most states your marriage license is your proof of marriage.  There are any number of people who can sign a marriage license.  If the judge is an elected official and has jurisdiction in your state then he can sign your license.  You can also take it to a notary public and get it notarized, no need for a wedding at all in some states.  Mayors, Justice of the Peace, Boat Captains all can get you legally married.  The importance to the state is that you file the proper paperwork.

Vegas is popular because the license office is open until midnight 7 days a week and 24 hours on holidays. There are some beautiful places to get married there, that aren't in a casino. You can get married in the Valley of Fire, Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead, there are a bunch of places that aren't tacky.  Of course there are also some really tacky places to get married and that could be fun too.  Also, most of the casino's have beautiful wedding chapels and their wedding ocordinator can help you.  You can have almost any wedding you want in Las Vegas, it's kind of cool.  I would definitely hire someone to help you with the planning since you are so far away.  You might also want to consider something closer to home, like Gretna Green or a castle wedding.  Although, friends of ours got married in Red Rock Canyon a few years ago; it's still one of the most beautiful weddings I've ever been to. There were 8 of us in this awesome canyon and it was so beautiful.  Good Luck and have fun.

I'm not sure what you were told but there is no such thing as a "single certificate" in California.  \n\nThe rules vary slightly depending on your county, but both parties must appear in person and bring valid picture identification to the County Clerk’s Office to apply for a marriage license in California. Valid picture identification is one that contains a photograph, date of birth, and an issue and expiration date, such as a state issued identification card, drivers license, passport, military identification, etc. Some counties may also require a copy of your birth certificate.\n\nIf you have been married before, you will need to know the specific date your last marriage ended, and how it ended (Death, Dissolution, Divorce or Nullity).  Some counties may require a copy of the final judgment if your previous marriage ended by dissolution or nullity.
