So i know they are only good for 60 days... but is there a time frame you have to have it by before the wedding?? some said you need to get it at least a month before? My FH is have trouble finding his birth certificate so he is requesting another copy but we wont get it till next week and our 1 month marker is wed?
I didnt think this was the case, but better safe than sorry! TIA!!

Re: Marriage License
You don't need a birth certificate if you have a NYS driver's license.
At least not if you go in Brooklyn.
You have to get your marriage license at least 24 hours before your wedding, but no more than 60 days before.

Re: Marriage License
In Nassau and Suffolk Counties you need to have a photo ID (license or passport) and your original Brith Certificate with the raised seal.
The Marriage License is valid for 60 days but takes 24 hour to mature. So in other words you need to get it no more than 60 days out but at least 2 days before your wedding.
HTH!

Re: Marriage License
If your FH goes to the Town Clerk office (or if one his parents goes), they can give him a new birth certificate right there. I couldn't find mine the other day and FH and I are going next week so I needed it ASAP. My mom went in, showed ID, and walked out with a new copy.
Just an FYI if you absolutely needed it sooner!
