Your Marriage License in Ohio, By County

devoted wedding logo

The legal age to marry in Ohio is 18 years old for males & females. Female applicants ages 16 & 17 must have parental consent and may require marriage counseling papers to obtain a marriage license. Marriage license must be obtained in the county where the marriage will take place, or the county where the couple currently resides. License must be acquired no more than 60 days prior to the ceremony. Plan to have a photo IDs, such as a driver’s license and passport, and other legal form of ID such as a social security card or birth certificate. If a bride or groom has been previously married, a divorce or death certificate of previous spouse must be presented. Some counties allow you to pre-complete your paperwork and payment online, and others may require appointments. Make sure to check in advance of going to pick up your marriage license. However, both applicants must go in-person to the location during regular business hours to present legal documents when getting the actual license. Most locations are open Monday through Friday and will be closed for lunch. Methods of payment and cost also vary by county, so be sure to check ahead before you go.
