To obtain a notary license, you typically need to meet certain eligibility requirements set by your state, such as being at least 18 years old, passing a background check, and completing a notary training course. You will then need to submit an application to the appropriate state agency, pay any required fees, and pass a notary exam. Once approved, you will receive your notary commission and can start performing notarial acts.
The cost to obtain a notary license varies by state, but typically ranges from 50 to 200. Additional fees may apply for training courses or exams.

The couple has to obtain a marriage license from their local courthouse, which they must provide to you at the time of the ceremony. The fee is $93.50, and the couple must go in person. Once the license is issued, there is a 3-day waiting period before it can be used. After the waiting period, the license must be given to the notary; the notary performs the ceremony and completes the "certificate" portion of the license and then mails it back to the court. (The couple can not return the license to the courthouse themselves, despite what the court clerks may tell the couple - it's against the law). Of course, as with all notarial acts, the notary will also have to see the bride and groom's photo ID before performing the ceremony.
