Award ticket purchase in a future name

I am looking at booking an award ticket soon for a trip to MAD in April 2014. I recently got married and haven’t changed my name yet because our marriage certificate in being held up by the state due to a clerical error. I have Gold status and really want to book soon before these flights at the lower mileage rate become unavailable.

Can I purchase a rewards ticket for my husband and I under my future name and still receive the Gold benefits such as seat selection and not paying the award processing fee?

Other information
• Currently no documents have been changed ie Passport, driver’s license or DM account
• By April all of the items above will be changed
• The flight I am looking at booking is flown completely on US metal.

Thank you
