  • A marriage certificate is prepared and filed by your licensed marriage officiant or performer with the Department of Health. A newly married couple receives one certified copy of the marriage certificate at no charge, upon payment of the marriage license fee, which will be sent to the couple by mail (60-120 days) after the marriage hs been performed. If a marriage certificate is needed sooner than this, you can fill out the expedited form.  Your licensing agent will provide you with this form.
  • Remember, a marriage license and marriage certificate are different documents. The marriage license allows a marriage to take place while the marriage certificate is a document that shows a marriage has been performed. Your marriage performer will file the documents necessary for you to receive a copy of you marriage certificate.
