Congratulations for insisting that all those who testify before the BCC give a legitimate address. You protected them from perjuring themselves, and allowed us to know that one of those who was testifying against the Agua Fria petition actually lived in Albuquerque.

We got our marriage license here. Very friendly county staff who were personable and helpful. The building is inviting and has a beautiful courtyard in case you have to wait for any reason. We had a very pleasant experience.

We were visiting from out of state and decided to get married while in New Mexico. Ken & Rob made applying for a marriage license SO easy. But I was shocked with how friendly and helpful they were!!! When we came back a couple of days later to submit the marriage license, we got to see Ken & Rob again and they were genuinely happy and excited that we were able to get married! Such lovely, friendly, helpful individuals. Thank you Ken & Rob! I hope to bump into you again next time we're in New Mexico.

Zero customer service skills at the information window, in particular the African American girl. They do not acknowledge you, do not say hello or welcome in, don’t crack a smile. She retrieved our paperwork, handed it to us, and nothing else. Perhaps they have to deal with difficult people on a regular basis.
