You can have a process server serve your wife with the documents. You can find process servers listed under attorney services in the Yellow Pages or online.
You can also have the marshal serve your wife with the documents; however, it would be preferable to use a process server other than the marshal because the marshal will make a limited number of attempts to serve your wife and if unsucessful will keep the amount you paid.
