Where can you get a blank marriage certificate?

Answer 1

Answer

People often use the words "marriage license" and "marriage certificate" interchangeably and they aren't necessarily the same thing, so I'll give my best answer for both circumstances. Bear in mind that marriage laws, policies, and terminology vary not only from state to state but often from county to county within a state, so it's wise to check with the County first to see what is required.

If you are seeking a marriage LICENSE--that is, you are unmarried and wish to start the process of getting legally married--you'll usually obtain your marriage license from the County Clerk (or Recorder, or other County office) of the county where you'll be getting married. You may run into rules that require waiting periods, pre-marital counseling, ID restrictions, etc. so it's prudent to check out the requirements first so you can take the proper paperwork with you and obtain your license in time for your ceremony.

If you are seeking a marriage CERTIFICATE--usually the term used for the piece of paper that proves you got legally married--you should contact the County Clerk/Recorder in the county where the marriage took place. Here in California we also call the marriage certificate a "certified copy;" it's literally a copy of the signed marriage license on special paper with various serial numbers and fraud detection added. Usually these certificates aren't free, so you should check to see how much it will cost to order them, and how long it will take to obtain them.

Many County Clerk's offices have websites these days and usually the specific requirements for obtaining that county's licenses or certificates are posted there.

Hope that helps, and good luck!
