thanks....
This is an interesting question. I think you'll be fine as long as you register with the civil authorities in only one country. You can have the religious ceremony in as many places as you want but should only have one marriage certificate from the government. I know alot of people have two marriage ceremonies in the US for religious reasons or because relatives couldn't travel but they are only registered in one state. Of course, that's for one country and the "full faith and credit" clause of the Constitution convers the marriage in one state for the whole union. I would only register with the government in one country but you may want to consult a lawyer and not an anonymous Mexican food on this one.
