When do we get our marriage certificate back after wedding?

We got ours back in about 9 days total. According to when it was notarized, the officiant sent it in the Tuesday after our Sunday wedding. But I have read/heard that it has taken people about 2 weeks. We're from Pennsylvania, if that makes a difference.

We just got ours this week (in Los Angeles), so about 6 weeks after the wedding. I don't remember how long they said it would take, but I think it was something like 6 weeks.

I'm in PA and have to request mine. It doesn't just come to me.

eta: Montgomery County

I went to the register of deeds the next day and got it

10 days! Got married on 8/28, went to the courthouse on 9/6 and it was ready. It could've been 9 days also, only 9/5 was a holiday.

Fortunately I was able to get a copy the day we submitted our license to be recorded. About a 10 minute wait and we were in Florida.

@Michelle, 6 weeks to get it? man, that's a long time! I hope it doesn't take that long! I am going to call next week if we don't get it by then. We got married in the same state as we live, just different county.

We left for our honeymoon right after the wedding, that is why I gave it to our officiant to mail it in.

Only took 10 or 11 days to come back to us.

Mine took 3 weeks. But my guess is they may be delayed for you because of the increase in weddings over labor day weekend?

We have to go to Vital Statistics 2 weeks after we are married to get it. They don't automatically mail them out where I live (Chicago).

In California, I have to wait a week then go in person to get it. Mailing is fine too but I have to notarize the signature.

Nextmrsd I got married in cook County and I got mine back

I am in GA and we have to request ours. We were told about a week for it to be ready but they advised for us to call to be on the safe side.

We got married in New York and got our marriage certificate about 4 to 5 weeks after the wedding. I think they generally take 4 to 6 weeks in the process but if the delay is more than that you need to call them.

I'm in NY, got mine in 10 days. It depends on when the officiant mails it in. Ours mailed it in right away.

We got married in DC and our priest signed copies A and B (which were filled in the Church and DC Court), and we were given copy C after the ceremony.

View Quoted Comment I just got married in cook county this past Saturday. We are from WI but chose to get married in Evanston. How long did it take for you to get your copy?

Got married in NC on 9/26, it's now 10/20 and nothing yet! I called the local Register of Deeds and they said they will mail it tomorrow, OH and they got the paperwork back on 9/26.... come on... Mail it out! I've already paid for it and 4 copies -_-

I got married on Sept. 20/2020 and it's now Dec. 10/2020 and have not received nothing back.

Is there someone I should contact about this?
