Hitched in a Flash: Can You Really Get a Marriage License Online in Vegas, Baby?
Planning a whirlwind Vegas wedding? Maybe you and your soulmate just watched one too many Elvis movies and now Viva Las Vegas is echoing through your brain. Whatever the reason, love (or themed weddings) is in the air, and you need the nitty-gritty. Can you snag that official marriage license online before the roulette wheel of life spins you somewhere else?
Absolutely, you can! Forget waiting in line with Elvis impersonators (although, that could be an interesting story for the grandkids). Clark County, Nevada, the home of Sin City shenanigans and wedded bliss, lets you get a head start on forever with their online application.
But hold on to your sequined jumpsuit, there are a few things to know before you virtually say "I do":
- It's gotta be recent: You can't apply online more than 90 days before your big day. So, no pre-emptive strikes on that Elvis impersonator wedding package.
- Doublemint gum ain't gonna cut it: Both you and your soon-to-be-spouse need valid, government-issued photo ID (think driver's licenses or passports).
- Cash is king (or plastic, but not a check): The license fee is a cool $102, payable in cash or by credit/debit card (with a slight surcharge for the plastic route).
- Read the fine print (or at least skim it): There are a few other requirements, like not being already married (shocking, we know) and being at least 18 years old. You can find all the details on the Clark County Clerk's website.
Once you've got the online application out of the way, it's smooth sailing to the altar (or Elvis impersonator):
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.
- Head to the Marriage Bureau with your confirmation number and valid ID.
- Pay the fee and get your official marriage license.
- Find your Elvis (or any licensed officiant) and tie the knot!
Congratulations, you crazy kids! Now you can gamble responsibly, argue about whose turn it is to use the bathroom, and tell everyone you got married in Vegas.
