As you may know, you apply for your marriage license from the Harris County Clerk. After the ceremony, it is signed by both parties and the official that performed the ceremony. The document is then returned to the County Clerk's Office for filing. If you haven't received a copy of the marriage certificate yet, you can search the Harris County marriage records online by name or date. Texas offers two types of marriage licenses, a regular license and an informal marriage license. Attached are links for searching both types of licenses and the general marriage license information.

How do you get married in a Texas prison?

The prospective spouse goes to the marriage license department of the local courthouse and asks for a proxy marriage form and fills out their part and makes sure that they fill in the persons name that is going to stand in for the absent spouse; mails it to the person incarcerated. They in turn fill in their part sign it and have it notarized and send it back to the prospective spouse. Then at that time the prospective spouse may take that form back to the marriage license department and apply for a marriage license. There is a fee for the marriage license and there is only 30 days to get together with the person who is going to stand in for the absent spouse with clergy or JP. The clergy or JP will preform the ceremony as normal and then will fill out their part and turn it in to be recorded by the court clerk and the court clerk returns marriage license to the spouse who is on the outside.

Can you get married to a prison inmate in Minnesota?

Yes. In Colorado you can do an absentee application which you pick up in person. The only thing that is required is to fill out the application and send it to the inmate for his signature which must be notarized. All Colorado prisons have notaries. Once you get the application back from the offender, then you take it and his birth certificate or other approved ID (prison ID's are not acceptable) to the county clerk's office. They will issue you the marriage license and then you and the offender can self-solemnize the ceremony. You sign the marriage license as both bride and groom and also as officiant. You will not be allowed to take the marriage license into the facility or send it to the inmate for signing, so it's best to get his Power of Attorney to do that. Then file the license with the county clerk where you got it and you're married. Colorado also recognizes marriage by proxy, but it's way more difficult to do than an absentee application. Google any Colorado Clerk and Recorder website and they will have information on each way to do it. Good Luck!

How much does it cost for a Nevada Marriage License in Las Vegas?

my first divorce cost me $350 in 2003 to divorce my daughter's father. that was having a paralegal filing out the papers, arranging the signing of said papers, and sending them to Tonopah, NV (cause we resided in NYE county). All in all took no more than one physical week from the time I paid, to the time I received papers back with the finalization. I'm anticipating this one to cost more, because of "local". Las Vegas is CLARK county... to me its worth looking into an hour drive for the speed of processing, and financial savings. However, because its divorce, I'm sure the headache will be present because of course "not our way". Sad world this is... truly
