What else can I help you with?
Where do you file your marriage license after the wedding ceremony?
After the wedding ceremony, you file your marriage license at the county clerk's office or the registrar of deeds office in the county where the marriage took place.
If you have a religious ceremony to get married but did not get a civil marriage license can you file married on your taxes?
No, you cannot file as married on your taxes without a civil marriage license. For tax purposes, the IRS requires a legal marriage recognized by the state. A religious ceremony alone does not confer legal marital status unless it is accompanied by a civil marriage license. You should consult with a tax professional for specific guidance based on your situation.
Are you still married if you only bought the marriage license?
Being the license does not complete the process. You must have the ceremony performed with an authorized officiant and file the license with signatures with the clerk.
How do you get married to an inmate in a prison of California?
Before the County Recorder will issue a marriage license, they require three (3) identifications. These identifications will be from the bride, groom and the wedding officiant who will be performing the wedding ceremony. The IDs must be original, valid, and in good condition. Then you must obtain an "Inability to Appear" package from the County Recorder, or we can mail, fax or email this package to you. The package consists of the "Procedures for obtaining a marriage license when one party is unable to appear", the "Affidavit of Inability to Appear" form, and the "Marriage License Application." The notary will have the incarcerated person sign both the affidavit of inability to appear and the marriage license application. The inability to appear form must be notarized. (For Men's Central Jail, it is suggested, if possible, that you get his signature notarized at his court hearing). After this process, the bride or groom, and the officiant, must appear together at the County Recorder with all 3 valid IDs, the notarized inability to appear form, and the completed and signed marriage license application. The request for the marriage license is processed, the required license fee is paid, and the marriage license is issued the same day if you arrive early enough. Once you have your marriage license, you choose your date and follow the facility's procedures for inmate weddings. After being approved, notify the wedding officiant of the date, time and facility that you would like the wedding ceremony to take place. The officiant will show up at the facility on the date and time you have chosen and perform your wedding ceremony. The wedding ceremony usually takes place during normal visiting hours through glass. After the ceremony, the officiant will complete the wedding license and file it with the County Recorder. After the filing of your marriage license/certificate, a certified copy of your marriage license/certification can be obtained after 6 to 8 weeks of the filing. Expedited service of your license/certificate is available through Express Mail. This request must be made at the same time the marriage license/certificate is being turned in to the County Recorder by the officiant.

Do you have to file your marriage license in court to be married?
You do have to file your marriage license in court to be legally married. Failing to file can cause the marriage to become invalid.
If you had a marriage ceremony at the county clerk's office but did not file for or pay for the marriage license are you legally married?
You may or may not be. You need to check at that county clerk's office. It is the officiant's obligation to return the marriage license to the issuing office so your license may have been returned and recorded without your knowledge. Generally, if the license is never returned there is no vital record made and thus no proof of the marriage.
Can a man have a wedding where he weds more then one woman if he doesn't file a marriage License?

Is a marriage valid if the parties decide not to file a marriage license?
No!
Who does the actual marrying of the couple during the wedding ceremony?
A priest generally marries bride and a groom under the sacrement of 'Matrimony' and they become man and wife. Decons elected by the Bishops can also perform this act.
Can one person file for a marriage license?
No, both people must be present when filing for the marriage license.
What to do if you never filed your marriage licenses?
You don't file a marriage license. You show your license to the person who officiated at the wedding.He then gives you a marriage certificate and you file that. If you haven't done it, go down to the county clerk where you got the license and ask how to file it. You may have to pay a late fee. Your marriage is still valid.
