California marriage laws require couples to obtain a marriage license from a county clerk's office, which is valid for 90 days. There is no waiting period, and couples can marry immediately after obtaining the license. Both parties must be at least 18 years old, or have parental consent if younger. Additionally, California recognizes same-sex marriage, as ruled by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2015, ensuring equal rights for all couples.
