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.
