What does it cost to file for my marriage license?
Due to the recent increases in shipping costs and additional fees, our package prices had to be adjusted accordingly.
If you have specific needs or questions, or wish to pay with Zelle or a money order, email us before submitting your application. All customers must have a valid email address to apply for a marriage license by mail. If you are an international couple, we have two different packages available. One with Apostille service and one without. International couples that can provide a US shipping address for the finished license may also choose any other package.
Applicant’s responsibility – a few things you have to do
Applicants must read the instructions carefully. All applicants will receive the instructions along with the pre-license and pre-marital statement to be notarized via Email. It is the applicant’s responsibility to check all personal information on the license. Please contact us immediately if anything needs to be corrected on the document. It is the applicant’s responsibility to get the documents notarized and mailed back to us promptly. We highly recommend sending us all notarized documents via a carrier like FedEx or UPS. We also recommend having an extra copy notarized in case a document gets lost in the mail. Photocopies or pictures of the notarized document are not accepted.
You must mail us the original, notarized license for issuing. The finished license will be sent to you via UPS Ground (if within the US, excluding Puerto Rico and Hawaii)or other shipment options if express shipping is needed. We must have the correct mailing address on file. Events and More Inc is not responsible for adverse conditions resulting from the shipping carrier. This may include missing, lost, or late-arriving documents. Additional fees that may arise because of shipping delays or lost documents are the applicant’s responsibility. Any corrections on the license after the wedding is recorded will incur additional revision and service fees.
Additional Shipping Information
Events and More Inc. ships all documents to the Clerk of Court or hand-delivers your documents, regardless of what package you choose. FedEx/UPS shipments go out once a week unless express filing is necessary or paid for in advance.
One way shipments included in the packages pertain to the finished license and how it will be mailed to you. All certified copies after the wedding will be mailed to you via USPS. All applicants must provide a physical address since a carrier cannot ship to a PO Box.
All application fees are non-refundable
