[lovingFSP637]

Hello Ladies!! I was wondering if anyone has heard or know of any information or status on the Marriages and the Marriage Coordinator? I'm getting so frustrated with not being able to Marry My Love ;,-( and having to wait maybe until the end of Summer
Thank You for any info :-)

[Inhishands]

All I know is that some friends of ours are in the marriage process, they got as far as getting the license and NOW the wedding can't be scheduled until after the co-ordinator is back...the license is only good for 90 days so now they are out the money ($90) for the license and have to wait to get another one...after she returns.

[Mrs.ts]

Well i spoke to Lisa the lady that is there in place or the marriage coordinator and she said thay she will be able to set dates for marrige, and shes waiting for approval to see if she is able to do anything beyond that just in case the original coordinator is not back from her extended maternity leave.

[Mrs.ts]

so i sent in my marriage packet already and i waiting to call on Monday to see if it was received yet . Im the type that will will call and check the progress every step of the way. i really hope this Lisa lady can do all she says she can. But does anyone know once you sent it in how long it takes to hear something. Or how long the process is for that matter. I am being so patient considering it took 3 monts just to get marriage papers.

Well the only thing u can do is just make sure u have your birthcertificate u have to send The origina or certified copy the good thing is that u only need yours not his u also need a color copy of your drivers license or ID also if you want someone to b their the day u get married u should have your man send u visiting forms for them because they must b approved to visit him in order to attend the day of the wedding

Yes dress code still apllies, there will be instructions on how to get the marriage license in the marriage packet. Im not sure about the witness part. I know you can have inmate witnesses. You should probably wait until you get the marriage packet and Im sure a lot of your questions will be answered. Hope this helps. Good luck!!

[j&f bomar]

Thank u it gave me a start on something(: again thank u again for helping me and GOOD LUCK ON URS ALSO((:

Yea I'm not sure but i really dnt have anyone besides his mama but she would need to reapply for the visiting so I might just ask her to b m witness..(: but that's nice ur gonna have ur daughter as ur witness((: do u knw if it's behind glass or no?

[R&F4ever]

The only way u will have a behind the glass wedding would b if their in the hole

On a very important side note; since we are here to support one another, PLEASE sign the petitions that are circulating regarding conjugal visits for lifers. Encourage everyone to sign, we need to band together if we want to impart positive change!

Please do your research before signing any petitons...bringing this fight for "family visits" out in the public eye is not the way to go if we want success...
