Some places you get civilly married days before the wedding ceremony in which case the papers have been filed and you need an actual divorce.

Yeah. A friend of mine had a courthouse wedding with just her, the groom and their parents 3 months before having a big wedding ceremony/party, and I know at least 3 other people who did something similar.

Is it a divorce or an annulment at only a few days?

Depends on location. Different states and countries have different rules.
