Urgent help needed: Looking for someone to marry us this Friday or Saturday (military situation)

Bradley, on November 26, 2025 at 1:44 PM Posted in Registry 1 3

Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone here might be able to help us. My fiancée is an active-duty Marine, and because of military housing rules, we need to be legally married before the end of the year so she can move off base and live with me. She will be in Santa Cruz this Friday and Saturday for Thanksgiving weekend, and these are the only two days we have to make this happen before she has to return to base.

We’re not looking for anything big—just a quick, simple legal ceremony or someone who can issue a marriage license and officiate so it becomes official. We will cover any fees or costs. This is extremely time-sensitive and really important to both of us.

If anyone knows an officiant, a notary who is authorized to issue a confidential marriage license, a chapel, or any service that is available on Friday or Saturday, we would sincerely appreciate the help.

Thank you so much to anyone who responds.

    You can try the court house to see if you can get married. I just don’t know the time frame as to how quickly they can do it. You can call your local to get information about it or research it. Good luck

    Sorry. I thought I shared this earlier... I guess I forgot to finish the reply.

    Las Vegas may have a quick license process in Clarke County registers office.

    You could call and check when they are open. This assumes you can travel soon enough to get to the office.

    Here's a phone number : For all customer service related questions,

    check at their website:

    One site said you can get a license done by Clark County in 15minutes if there is not a crowd

    I only mention Vegas because it seems they are known for doing sudden marriages. You otherwise can check a local county office, since the licenses come through those offices. Search officiants on WeddingWire or look up officiants nearby to be ready after you get a license.

    It seems Bradley is trying to plan a wedding quickly. This is a site that can help. If it is a bad idea, then hopefully the advice won't work -- and thus save them from that situation. If they get married, pray for it to work out well.
