Hello,

My girlfriend and I are on opposite ends of the globe right now. She is an Australian citizen and I am a US citizen. Our plan is currently for me to move to Australia sometime next year as her spouse, not fiancee.

We are planning to get married here in New York. Is it possible for us to do this without a big hassle? Since she will be returning to Australia and not be seeking a visa or US citizenship, can we get a marriage license and marry here without any visa-related paperwork?

edit: thanks in advance for any help, input or advice
