Re: Marriage License

Two IDs and one has to be a photo ID.

You can get another birth certificate. You have time.

I looked it up ... it said 12-14 weeks on the web site unless you paid with your OWN credit card... which I don't have :/

Re: Marriage License

We couldn't find FH birth certificate before going on a cruise, so we called and ordered one and had it expedited. It cost $30 and we got it within 2 weeks.

Re: Marriage License

I was born at St. Charles in Port Jefferson and that is the site I used to request my birth certificate. I had no problem.

NYS Marriage License requirements page

This page shows wht you need.

Any 14 or 15 year old brides on the board?

I can't believe that NYS offers marriage licenses to such a young age, even if it requires parent approval.

ETA:
Proof of Age and Identity

A person is required to establish proof of age and identity by submitting to the issuing clerk:

One of the following age related documents:
1. Birth Certificate
2. Baptismal record
3. Naturalization record
4. Census record
And one of the following identity related documents:
1. Driver's license
2. Passport
3. Employment picture ID
4. Immigration record

Re: Marriage License
