Holy shit, I'm doing this this weekend.
 
Bad news is in Connecticut it's all too easy to get "married" just by living together .... I believe 5 years cohabitation makes for a "common-law" marriage here.

😳
Was that the old law?

Looks like it can't happen in Connecticut itself. They'll only recognize it if it happened in another state first.
