How to Change Your Name Upon Marriage
After the wedding I felt a huge sense of relief. No wedding planning! No vendor meetings! No more timeline adjustments! My work here is done. Pysch, Mrs. Eel! Big, fat psych.
Next up to bat: The Name Change.
I had decided early on in the wedding planning process that I would be changing my name to Mr. Eel’s last name. Mr. Eel left the decision entirely up to me; his preference was for me to change my name to his last name but ultimately knew my relatively unique maiden name was special to me. In the end, I decided to move my maiden name to my middle name and take Mr. Eel’s last name as my own so I would be: First Name Middle Name Maiden Name Eel Last Name.
