Today, I found out that just because you express mail something, it doesn't mean the post office won't still lose it. What did they lose? My signed marriage license. We spent all that time and money to get married on the day of our choosing, and our marriage isn't even valid. FML

Thank you for your kind words. People don't understand that we did everything to get it there on time and backed it up with express mail which is overnight delivery to ensure or very important document was received on time. The sad thing is, those employed at the post office just don't care.

That's really bad. I feel for you. Post offices aren't reliable like they were at one point I guess.

Now you know how it is to be me, a gay man with a loving husband. But hey at least your marriage will eventually be valid and you'll have access to the rights 90% of this country gets...

Okay seriously, I've got nothing against gays and their desire to be able to get married to one another, but when you have to make every little thing into a sob-story for your cause, THAT'S when I stop being so supportive. Politics have no place on sites like this. Oh, and not only that, but you don't know that the OP was marrying a man. She could be a lesbian for all you know.

I was more saying don't bitch about a week wait on the validity of you're marriage when there are millions that don't have that right.

YDI. Just another post trying to make people boo hoo. Just apply to get another one. Not valid? Really? So dramatic. Get over yourself. I feel sorry for your non valid spouse.

You could try to just go to a registry office and do it that way if it doesn't turn up. Sucks though :/ I'd be so pissed.
