I had a justice of the peace marriage in 1 state followed by a church wedding in another. What state's laws govern in the event that I want to obtain a divorce? |
 |
| Your first marriage is the date you got married. The second is legally irrelevant (unless your first marriage was flawed for some reason). The divorce will be governed by the laws of the state in which you currently reside, not where your ceremony took place (if different). |
