Hawaii Marriage License

The Marriage License is a legal document that allows a couple to be legally married in Hawaii. Both Bride and Groom must meet the requirements to be married, and both must apply together, in person. Valid identification is required. License fee is $60, cash only.

You will leave the Office with the Marriage License in hand. It is valid for thirty days. Don't do anything to it, but be sure to take it with you the day of your wedding, to give to your officiant.

You can expect to receive the marriage certificate (the legal proof of your marriage) three to four months after your wedding. After the wedding you can request to expedite the process, to receive the license in three to four weeks.

The Marriage License is a document issued to qualifying couples who apply to marry while in Hawaii. By the time the recording and documentation process is complete, it will bear several signatures, when it will be a legal, binding contract.

The Licensed Officiate (a.k.a. wedding officiant, wedding minister, marriage officiant) is either a Judge or a Minister who has satisified State of Hawaii requirements to solemnize a marriage.

Last-minute weddings are welcome, as are large formal weddings, or an intimate wedding for two. Linda will help you remember your wedding ceremony!
