No. Any couple seeking to be married must personally appear before an authority authorized to issue a marriage license. For same-sex couples, that means you must both be physically present in a jurisdiction where same-sex marriage is legal when obtaining a marriage license.

What are the advantages of having a marriage license?

In order to have a valid marriage, you need to get a marriage license. Getting a marriage license typically involves couple to apply for a license at the clerk/recorder for their county. This can be done live or online. Then the couple must appear at the clerk's office to pick up the license, or if the couple had applied in person, the license can be sent by mail. Many states required a 0-5 day "cooling off" period, to give the couple time to think it over. Applicants must be over 18, or obtain a guardian's permission. They must be unmarried, and have proof of divorce or annulment. Applicants do not need to be citizens of the United States or a state resident.

How long before Marriage license expiration?

No never. A license for marriage doesn't expire. You could get a divorce, but then you would be only separated in man's eyes not God's eyes. If you get married, plan to live with that man/woman your whole life because if you divorce that one and marry another, you are committing the sin of adultery in God's eyes. Even in Jesus' day, there were divorces, and they were accepted by the church then. The Roman Catholic church requires a "tribunal" [like a court] to absolve you of your prior marriage so that you can re-marry another without being charged with adultery. The other Christian religions do not share this view ... in the Lutheran church, you can be married, divorced and re-married many times and you are NOT committing any sins nor adultery. In other words, you will not go straight to hell for getting re-married ... at the pearly gates on your day of reckoning, St. Peter will still allow your soul to enter heaven. If you have gotten a marriage license issued, you generally have a year to use that license (getting married). After that time has elapsed, and you have not yet been married, you have to re-apply for another marriage license.
