According to the Dallas County Clerk, marriage licenses issued in the State of Texas can be used for ceremonies in other states. But, according to the Clark County Clerk in Nevada, you must obtain your marriage license in Nevada. You do not need to be a Nevada resident to get your license there. Both parties must appear in person before a Clerk at a Clark County Marriage Bureau location. There are several in Las Vegas.

If you want to get married in Las Vegas, you can apply for your license the same day of your ceremony. Marriage licenses are issued the same day that you apply and there is no waiting period after that to get married. The Clark County Clerk also has an online marriage pre-application on their website that you can fill out ahead of time. You can do this up to 60 days before.

Good luck!

You file for divorce in the state where you are a resident, even if that's not where you were married. So if you are a resident a Texas, that's where you would file for divorce.
