TO APPLY FOR A MARRIAGE LICENSE

Marriage Licenses are issued from 9:30 AM - 3:30 PM, Monday through Thursday and from 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM on Fridays.

Getting married in New York State is a three-step process:

  1. Obtain a marriage license from a municipal clerk
  2. Have a ceremony (it may be religious or civil), at which the officiant and witnesses sign the license
  3. Return the signed marriage license to the municipal clerk.

A couple who intends to be married in New York State must apply in person for a marriage license to any town or city clerk in the state. The application for a license must be signed by both applicants in the presence of the town or city clerk.  A representative cannot apply for the license on behalf of the applicant. This applies even if the representative has been given a Power of Attorney. Notarized marriage license affidavits signed by the applicants cannot be substituted for their personal appearance.

  • Persons must be 18 years old without parental consent.
  • The License fee is $40.00. The Town accepts either a personal check or cash. 
  • Please be aware, a license is valid for 60 days from the day it was issued by the Town Clerk
  • There is a 24-hour waiting period after the license is issued before the marriage can take place.
