Summarize this article in one sentence.
In New Jersey, your marriage can be officiated by any of the following people: a judge or magistrate of any kind, a county clerk, a mayor or deputy mayor of a town, a chairman of a township committee, and anyone who has been ordained (including online).  If you have a comfortable relationship with a religious figure, consider asking them to marry you. If you have a close friend, ask if they’d like to marry you (after they’ve been ordained online). Ask your already married friends to see if they recommend anyone. In order for your marriage to be legally recognized, you must first obtain a marriage license from the state of New Jersey. You can get your marriage license by visiting your local registrar and presenting the following documents.  A driver’s license, passport or state and/or federal ID. Proof of residency. Your social security card and/or number. A witness who is over the age of 18. Your marriage license application fee, which costs $28.00. There is a 72-hour waiting period in New Jersey, so if you plan to get married on a weekend, you need to get your license by the Tuesday prior. You do not have to be a resident of New Jersey to get married in New Jersey. Not every woman (or man) feels compelled to change their surname after a wedding, but if that’s important to you, you can find the forms online at the New Jersey Judiciary website.  Fill out and sign the Verified Complaint form. Make sure to keep a copy of the form for your records. Mail the form, filing fee and a self-addressed, stamped envelope to a New Jersey court. You can also drop the materials off in person. You will receive a  hearing date in the mail, along with the name of a local newspaper. Publish your name change hearing date in the newspaper prior to your hearing. Send the court the Affidavit of Publishing to prove you completed the task. Appear in court on your hearing date. Afterwards, publish your final judgment in the newspaper within 20 days and send another Affidavit to the court. Notify the state bureau of vital statistics and treasury department of your name change.

Summary:
Find someone to officiate. Obtain a marriage license. Change your name (if you want).
