A Certified Copy of a Marriage Certificate is a copy of the original record that was issued by a County Clerk and signed by the Officiant.

There is several reason you may need Certified copies of your marriage record. Including, but not limited to, changing your name, filing for insurance benefits, joint tax filing and applying for a mortgage.

Before you get married you need to apply via application for official documents in order for the marriage to be legal in the U.S., after the ceremony, the officiant will submit this paperwork to the proper entity so it can be filed.

Apply for a Marriage License in the state in which the event is taking place.

In most cases you must pick up the license at the county/state office in which you applied. The timeframe/procedure in which the license must be picked up varies from state to state. Please follow the specific instructions during the application process for your specific state.
