When You Forgot to Get a Marriage License Before Your Wedding

You forgot to get a marriage license? Don’t panic.

Marriage is, technically, a legal contract. And so a wedding ceremony has some requirements.

The most important legal requirement is that you need get a marriage license before your wedding ceremony takes place. That’s just the law and a legal detail that needs to be fulfilled with no exceptions.

But the funny thing is that many brides and grooms either don’t know this necessity or they forget, in the myriad of details planning their wedding, to purchase the actual marriage license.

I am often called by couples, in a panic, to come to their aid. I always keep a few marriage licenses on hand for these types of emergencies.

I can easily issue a marriage license and be your wedding officiant in a private legal wedding ceremony so nobody has to know that your “friends and family” ceremony did not result in your marriage.
