1. Before your Wedding

The first step to getting married in Virginia is obtaining a marriage license through the Circuit Court Clerk’s Office. This is most often found at the courthouse in a given county, and some links are provided under the FAQs section for the most commonly used clerk's offices.

You do not need to be a resident of the County or even Virginia to obtain a Virginia marriage license. For specific information about the requirement for obtaining a license, contact the Circuit Court Clerk directly.

Once you have your license, it remains valid for 60 days. This means, the marriage ceremony needs to be completed within 60 days by the wedding officiant (that's me!)
