It depends on the state and if it was a legit wedding. In Michigan bill collectors can't come after family, unless family was on the bill.

It's not even dependant on the state. It's against federal regulations to collect medical debt from a spouse. That said, they can collect(1)

Both sign and then mail into your state/local government to process. Then it's legal. But that doesn't make the ceremony less real.

Yes it does. You can literally sign a piece of paper to get married. The ceremony isn't necessary at all..
