Marriage license

You have to show up together.

Give a quick google search such as "My city marriage license" and it will tell you exactly where to go.

Laws differ from state to state. Some states have waiting periods and some don't. You need to get the license in the state (and probably the same county, but I'm not entirely sure) that you plan to get married in.

I know it varies but for ours you have to get it in the county either of you live in (proof via driver license)

^ That is not always the case. i.e.) weddings in Vegas

Just google the phone number for your local office and call if you can't get all the info you need online, OP

ETA: Call the office where you plan on getting married.

In my state you have to get the marriage license in the state the marriage will take place in (something to consider if you are in different states), but it can be in any county within the state. There is also a 3 day waiting period. I just googled the marriage license requirements and found them from my county's website. If you have trouble finding what you need online, you can probably go to your local courthouse and ask the register what you need to do

Just google "marriage license (your city and state). I did that when I was curious and it took me directly to the page for the Register of Deeds...everything I needed to know was there. It's a pretty cut and dry process where I live...no waiting period and it's valid for 60 days. You can fill out the application online and all you have to do is go downtown and take the oath and sign the papers. However, it's not the same everywhere.

Yes check online for the city where you will be getting married, but make sure you visit in the actual city/county/government website not a third party. There is a lot of misinformation online, and marriage license requirements are different depending on your town/county/state.

Definitely check online. For example, we are getting married in DC (don't live there but we are getting married in the district) and they grant marriage licenses same day and only one of you needs to be there to grab it.

Indiana is in the county or residence for either of you, if you live out of state it has to be in the county the ceremony will take place. Some states offer the application online to fill out ahead of time and then showing up in person to show required documents and receive the license.

Definitely check with the circuit court of the county you are getting married in. I am getting married in Baltimore but live in northern va. We don't the time to make it to baltimore before 4pm when the office closes m-f BUT they have an option for those that do not live in the county they are getting married in. Its a marriage application form for those outside the county. I had to print it out, fill out with everything except signature. I had to take it to my circuit court in my current county (much better than going to the county we are marrying in from a time perspective). I signed the document in front of the lady. Only one of us had to present. She stamped it with the seal and I mailed off the application with a $50 money order to the circuit order in the county of our wedding. They can mail your license back to you if you want but we are actually going to pick it up when we have our venue walk through next week! Hope this helps!

I'd google it, and if you're still confused, call. I called because I wanted to make 100% sure that my DH didn't need to be there with me (per the rules of the county in which we got married) and they were very helpful. For us we needed to get the marriage license in the county we were getting married in, since it was different than where we live.

Google, it varies so much from place to place! Some counties require you both to show up, and some require waiting periods or blood tests.

A FL marriage license can be used anywhere in the state (not county specific).

Although some counties allow you to pre-fill the application online, you both must appear to swear the info is correct and to sign it.

FL residents have a 3-day waiting period, but non-residents do not.

License is good for 60 days and must be returned to the same courthouse within 10 days after the wedding.

Cost is approx. $95 (varies by county because sales tax varies by county).
