Under the Texas Family Code, chapter 2, section 102, a minor is eligible for a marriage license with parental consent only if the minor is 16 years of age or older. However, if there are extenuating circumstances, a minor 17 years or under may apply for a court order authorizing a marriage with or without parental consent (section 103). In this case, there is no minimum age specified in the law.

18 without parental consent, 16/17 with parental consent, under 16 requires a court order (which is most often denied).
