Information On Marriage By Justice Of The Pea

Hello. This post may be a little odd - I`m not getting married, or even thinking about it (I`m a tad young, besides). I am, however, an avid fiction writer, and I need information on getting married by a Justice of the Peace in order to write my final piece for my Creative Writing class.

It`s very hard to find good information, so I thought I`d come here and ask. All I need is the basics; paperwork, who signs what, who can be `witnesses` (one person told me that anyone can attend) and any other details deemed important.

Sorry for being so ignorant about this subject. It`s very hard to find what I need even on the internet.

Thank you!

Hi there!
First, ignore catty comments, such people have nothing useful to do with themselves.
Second, why not go to a court and ask them about it. Am not quite sure how the process works myself, but i believe that if you go to the appropriate government dept (eg DA`s office) they might be able to help.
Third, google "justice of the peace" and "your hometown" and see what comes up.
All the best with your class...
