- Immediate official certificate issuance valid for six months
Pro Tips for a Smooth License Process
- Book your seminar at least two weeks before your marriage license appointment
- Reserve a 50% deposit to secure your slot; balance due before first session
- Confirm video platform access if you choose the online option
- Group rates available for sponsors and family members
- Keep your certificate safe—your local civil registrar requires the original copy
