Another couple had two marriage ceremonies.
Louis Kossuth Goldberger (1887-1971) and Celia Schlesinger (1887-1962) were married in New Jersey on October 31, 1910. They married again in New York City on April 9, 1911.
Any guesses why this was done?

His parents were Herman Goldberger and Rosa Balogh. Hers were Moritz Schlesinger and Mary Spitzer.
Records using the surname Goldberger stop in the 1930s. They changed their name to Dormont.

Research Notes:
New York City records of certain years can be searched and downloaded for free on the website of the New York City Department of Records and Information Services.
New Jersey records 1878 forward are not online, but indexes exist. The years 1920-1929 only have initials of the groom, so if you do not have the name of the bride, you may not find your person of interest in the index. The certificates are filed in the State Archives by year in alphabetical order for the years 1904 forward, so you can search year by year if you only know the groom's name.
