Sorry to rain on your parade, but there are no states in the union that allow a 16 year old to get married without parental permission. Matter of fact, not even Canada and Mexico allow this. It would be better to wait out the two years and get married when you're a legal adult. If you cannot wait two years, then you are not really mature enough to marry in the first place.

AnswersThey can't. Although in certain situations a court will allow the age and parental consent requirements waived. Filing for a waiver is only possible in a few states and the decision is made at the discretion of the judge as to whether or not the request will be granted.

In addition there are a few states that allow a minors to marry without parental consent or a court order; if certain circumstances exist and if the required documentation is presented at the time of the license application.

  • In Georgia if you're pregnant you don't have to have your parents consent to get married just have to have proof of pregnancy!
  • If you are a minor, either you don't get married, or you get your parents' permission.
AnswerThe law will vary by state, but in most states you will need to file a petition for legal emancipation in order to make adult decisions. However, even legal emancipation might not help you. In California for example, even a legally emancipated can't get married without parental permission. The bottom line: it depends on the law of your state. MarylandTo marry without parental consent, a person must be at least 18 years old. However, if both parties are 16 years old or over and a physician certifies that the female is pregnant or has given birth to a child, the parties may marry without parental consent.

When either the male or female or both is under 16 years of age, marriage is permitted only with parental consent and a physician's certification that the female is pregnant or has given birth.
