No. Obtaining a marriage license doesn't mean you're married. You must take your marriage license with you and arrange to have the ceremony performed by some person permitted in your state to perform marriages (city clerk, justice of the peace, priest, minister, judge, etc.). That person must sign the marriage license and return it to the town clerk where it was issued. If your marriage license expired before you used it to get married then you need to start all over again and apply for a new one.
You may wait as long as you like! However, it should be understood that unless you live in a common law marriage state, you are not legally married until the marriage license is signed.
There is a 48-hour waiting period before the marriage license is valid in Maryland. The marriage license is valid for six months.
No, the license should be from the correct county in Pennsylvania. The license must be issued by the county where the ceremony is to take place.
Yes and the license is valid for 6 months only.
the Answer is NO.. first you go to pick up marriage paperwork from city hall or court house. when you got that marriage paperwork you have to attend the marriage Class to complete it. then the pastor will help you to setup an wedding once you got marry the pastor will sign the paper then you take to where you got paper from then they will give you an real marriage paper then your done. I hope this help.If you are getting married in a church; chapel or Justice of the Peace then you need a marriage license. Otherwise you can live together and it is called a 'common-law marriage' but no marriage license is needed.
Anne of cleves. They divorced after six months of marriage.
It would help if you specified what license.
No. If you got married while you were still legally married then the second marriage is null and void.
Legally married until you divorce regardless of current residency.
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.
In California you can get an annulment anytime before 6 months.
