Yep, a death row inmate can certainly get married, as many of the ladies on here can state, that are very happy.
No, they cant have children while they are in prison, I dont believe that there is any state that has conjugal visits for men on death row. But marriage is a CERTAIN yes

I married my husband, who is on Arizona death row, on the 15th of June. So, yes on the marriage. But, as far as I know noone on the row gets to practice making babies. All I would want to do is practice, but the state of Arizona definitely says no.

I do think that it depends on the State and the DOC Policy about getting married. I did it. Good Luck!!

Hi!

Did anyone marry a someone on Texas DR?

HuGzz 'N StUff · #9 11-10-2005, 07:45 AM

There have been alot of women out here marry Texas DR inmates. One of them will come along and give you some information I'm sure. I do know you have to get married by Proxy. I got married in Texas by Proxy, but we are in Ohio.

Hi!

Thanks for your answer - but what does proxy mean?
I'm not planning on getting married (doesn't even know if he would want me

) - just curios.

I too would like to just "practice" myself, but Texas says no also

"By proxy" means that you go to the court house and get papers, he fills them out and names a 'proxy' or person for him to stand in for him at the actual wedding.

Hi!

Thank you for educating me - it doesn't sound to romantic - but defiantly better than nothing

Is the inmate allowed to wear a wedding band if the couple chooses to have them?

XXXXXXXX, Anne-Kathrine

jojo29 · #14 11-13-2005, 09:44 PM

No, they can not have a ring. The only way they are allowed is if they were married and had a ring prior to going into the system (and that is straight from the warden's office when I went through it)

Friends4ever · #15 11-14-2005, 12:41 AM

Okay thank you - that's a little sad - but obviously it's not the ring that determines if you are married or not - it's in your heart

luvmystud · #16 11-17-2005, 01:38 AM

Some of the guys get creative and use other thing (band aids and other things) in place of a ring. It can be very sweet.

Im going to be marrying my guy in Georgia some time this year. We are setting a date at our next visit February 3rd

HERE IN CALIFORNIA, THEY CANNOT CONCEIVE A CHILD BECAUSE THEY DONT ALLOW CONJUGAL/TRAILER VISITS, BUT THEY CERTAINLY CAN GET MARRIED.

I'm pretty sure in Texas you can have a ring, but it has to be plain and less than a certain amount. Dont quote me on that, i'm not sure where I heard that.

Waiting4Hubby · #21 11-12-2006, 01:53 AM

No in Texas they can't have a ring, unless they came into the system with a ring. If they get married while in prison they will not allow rings.

Hi there, I am new to the site and hope you dont mind if I post a few questions on various threads. I am neither a partner or family member of an incarcerated loved one, but have an interest in criminal justice. May I ask you wives and partners of men on death row how on earth you keep motivated, strong and committed? I admire your strength and your will but I dont think Id have the same amount of courage to marry a man on death row. How do you put yourselves through it?

I hope i havent offended anyone by asking so directly, just seeking knowledge.

cheers cinders
