C'mon penguinbar.. you *know* this one. Which one will let you rest easier at night, knowing that it is the most complete document available to you? The long one, right?

I was going to suggest "both", just in case. LOL

LOL! Me too!

Just to further confuse people, the document that shows our marriage has the license we applied for superimposed on the marriage certificate that was recorded after the marriage by the county clerk. So ours actually says "Marriage License/Certificate" at the top.

The one proving the marriage took place is what you need, however.
