I just had a pretty eye-opening experience. A mere month and a half after we got married, I decided to finally order our marriage certificate. Yeah yeah, I\u2019m a slacker. You don’t have to tell me.<\/p>\n
Anyhow, I’d received 2 letters in the mail shortly after the wedding with 2 different websites to order our marriage certificate from. They both had our certificate number and looked official enough. I didn’t think much of them, and put them away. Today, as I went to finally order the certificate, I pulled the letters out. Different addresses, different prices, different websites. Weird, right?<\/p>\n
First I DM’d my go-to everything wedding Vegas girl, Jennifer<\/a>, then started digging around on the Clark County website. As it turns out, it WAS weird to get those 2 letters. On the Vegas Recorder<\/a> page, there is an \u201cImportant Consumer Alert<\/strong><\/a>\u201d front and center telling recent married couples that other sites aren’t legit and aren’t associated with the court house.<\/p>\n These companies may charge significantly more for copies of documents than what a customer would pay if requesting certified copies directly from the Clark Country Recorder\u2019s Office. <\/em><\/p>\n Wow. Just wow.<\/p>\n Marriage capital of the world and of course there’s scammers! <\/p>\n The good news is that the certificate has been ordered and from the official site so my credit card is [hopefully] still safe. Good thing I know to check up on these things before blindly handing my credit card over to random people!<\/p>\n I sure do hope more people dig around before ordering stuff online. <\/p>\n And so ends my PSA of the day. =D<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I just had a pretty eye-opening experience.
