'Legally married' explained


This is in response to Overseer-3's question as to why the couple are pronounced "legally married" instead of "man and wife." The whole comedy revolves around the difficulties in getting legally married in a foreign country. Therefore, the "legally married" pronouncement drives home this point at the end of the film.

Are they legally married?

Did they ever work out the issue of her being underage and the fact her documents stated she was already married? I know they were 'stirring up' the Mexican government to get them married but they couldn't fix all their problems and they couldn't give consent. Her parents would have to do that. Did I miss something?
