pre-reg question

[iunnrais.livejournal.com]

This year('09) was my fifth Dragon*con, and I've always tried to get my pre-reg application in by the first deadline, so as to get the best price. For next year's con, though...I'm afraid I might have hit a snag. I'm hoping not, but wanted to double-check, and figured someone else might have one or both of the same questions, so...*shrug*

As I'm getting married in January, changing my last name and moving to another state...what would be my best bet as far as membership goes? When I apply for membership do I put the new name on the application even though it won't be my legal name for another two months, or do I put the "old"(current) name on there and then pester someone after it changes?

Also, with the mail thing, I seem to recall that the first round of postcards generally goes out around February? If this is the case, then my address will be changing between when I would normally send in paperwork/payment, and I will most likely not know the new address by that deadline.

If I register pre-wedding will I have to do extra paperwork and pay a transfer fee to change the name my badge is under? Am I better off just waiting and paying the higher price later on? I remember a post this past year about sending in the proper information later on with memberships purchased online, is that something I can do?

Thanks!
