Brides, you should consider carefully the decision of whether to use your husband's last name, keep your maiden name or combine both.  (Your decision will affect any possible children you have in the future.)

If you decide to change your name legally, the paperwork should be done as soon as you return from your honeymoon.  Some of the places you need to change your name include:

      [  ] Driver's License

      [  ] Bank Account
      [  ] Automobile Registration
      [  ] Retirement Accounts

      [  ] Employer Notification
      [  ] Insurance: Home, Life, Automobile
      [  ] Social Security
