marriage certificates

Proof of union

Marriage certificates are official documents issued by a government authority confirming that a marriage has been legally performed and registered.

They serve as proof of marital status for legal purposes—changing names, filing joint taxes, claiming spousal benefits, or establishing next-of-kin rights.

We needed our marriage certificate to add her to my insurance.
