BOTH PEOPLE MUST COME IN TOGETHER

THE COST IS EITHER:

(*If you have had premarital counseling, there is a certificate that must be completed by the person who has administered the counseling to you. The Court can provide you with the blank certificate upon request. This completed and notarized certificate must be brought into the Court at the time of application for your marriage license.*)

Marriage License Requirements are:

  • Both parties are required to submit a PHOTO I. D.; birth certificates and social security cards are NOT acceptable types of PHOTO I. D.
  • If either party has been previously married and divorced, then a copy of the FINAL divorce decree, signed and dated by the Judge, is required.
  • The legal age of consent for both parties is 18. If the bride or groom is 16 or 17, you will need BOTH parents to sign the marriage application on your behalf. BOTH parents will need to bring PHOTO I. D. AND a CERTIFIED copy of the minor’s birth certificate dated within the last 45 days, showing both parent’s names.
  • NO ONE under the age of 16 MAY MARRY under any circumstances.

The Probate Judge will perform marriage ceremonies by appointment ONLY, on Tuesdays and Thursdays ONLY.
Appointments must be made AT LEAST 24 hours in advance; NO WALK-INS!
Due to our limited space, we would ask that ALL wedding parties wait in the hall area until the bride and groom complete their marriage application.
We apologize for the inconvenience and we appreciate your cooperation with this matter!
