I need some serious support today guys ... it has been a ROUGH two days 
So we have 9 days to go till the wedding and because of county licenses expiring and the length of our honeymoon, we had to wait until closer to the wedding day to obtain our marriage license. Our priest does not submit them--we have to, and we'll be on a long honeymoon.
We went to the courthouse yesterday were super excited and the lady says, sorry I am not giving you anything today because your license is expired. Idiotic me forgot that my birthday was Saturday and apparently it's the year my license expires. SO THEN I had to drive to the DMV wait an hour for the new license and then go back to work (late )
So TODAY we go back to the courthouse and wait in line, get up to the front and give the girl my passport (they won't except my transition license and it takes two weeks to mail it to me--just in time for me to order a NEW one because I'm changing my name sigh) and FH gives her his ID. She accepts these, then asks if any of us have been married. FH says yes and gives her his Divorce Decree. She looks at it and says sorry I am not giving you a license because your Divorce Decree isn't certified. He literally requested one from his courthouse of his hometown county and that's what they sent him. So she told him, just go to the 22nd floor and have the magistrate certify this. It'll take five minutes.
So I wait in line and he comes back 5 minutes later and says the lady on the magistrate's floor said they were all in session today and they needed to stop sending people down to them. So we left.
I called the office to see when the magistrates are out of session. Tomorrow. Okay. So I call the marriage license office to MAKE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN we have everything acceptable. The lady I talked to was like, Franklin county ALWAYS certifies their divorce decrees. I don't understand. I said, well he got married and divorced in Lucas County. The lady was like---oh! Well, our magistrates can't certify a divorce decree from another county! I was like ... that girl told us they would do it. The woman responded the girl probably didn't read it and ASSUMED it said Franklin.
So I said, how do we get this certified. We get married in 9 days. The lady was like, well you'll have to get it from Lucas County. We are over 3 hours away from lucas county and have no time to drive there. FH is in a conference this weekend and we don't have any more vacation time until the wedding.
So I call Lucas County and order a CERTIFIED divorce decree. The helpful guy was like well it'll take 3-5 days to process then we post it in the mail. I asked if I could pay extra for express shipping. No they don't offer that. So then I said, could FH's parents pick one up? How long would it take for them to get one? The guy was like well five minutes? We just print it and stamp it and it's theirs.
So his parents are picking it up today and overnighting it to us. Please send up a prayer everyone that on Monday we can get our Marriage License. I am literally losing my mind. Please help!
