JUSTICE OF THE PEACE
You Betcha! Simplicity is a Justice of the Peace in the State of New Hampshire
and can even officiate at your wedding (preferably not in clown, but that certainly can be arranged).
MARRIAGE LICENSE
All persons wishing to be married in the State of New Hampshire must complete a Marriage License application with any
City or Town Clerk regardless of their place of residence. This includes out-of-state residents.
Once the marriage license is issued, the couple is free to marry within any city or town in the State of New Hampshire.
The marriage license issued by the clerk's office will be valid immediately and expires in ninety (90) days so it is important to
plan accordingly.
All couples may be required to submit a marriage license fee to the City Clerk.
Both individuals must appear at the same time in the Office of the City Clerk with...
Proof of age (example - driver's license, passport, certified birth certificate) is required by both applicants
Photo identification (example - driver's license or passport) is required by both applicants
Certified copy of a death certificate of a former spouse, if either applicant is widowed
Certified copy of a final divorce decree, if either applicant is divorced
Certified copy of a civil annulment decree, if the applicant's previous marriage was annulled. This is a court document.
If either party (or both) is a member of the armed forces, he or she shall forward an affidavit of marriage intentions,
prepared by the armed forces legal representative, to the City Clerk, if he or she cannot appear in person.
It is not legal in the State of New Hampshire to marry your first cousin or anyone in closer kinship to you.
It is not legal to be married in the State of New Hampshire if you are under the age of 18.
Exceptions are made if you are a female between the ages of 13 and 17 or a male between the ages of 14 and 17 and have obtained
parental permission and a waiver from a superior court or probate court judge.
CERTIFIED MARRIAGE LICENSE
A certified copy of your marriage license may be obtained from the city or town clerk's office where you filed for your license
after the officiator has completed and returned the marriage license to the clerk. This will take approximately one to two weeks.
