Legal Requirements for Weddings In Tennessee
Bring identification (for each person): certified copy of birth
certificate; valid driver's license; or other acceptable I.D. issued by
Tennessee, another state, the United States, or a foreign government.
Either bring your Social Security card or know your Social Security
number.
Bring cash for the license fee ($95). Discount given if you receive 4
hours of marriage counseling. If your county approves of your counselor
and your completed session, you will be given a $60 discount.
Both bride and groom must go in person. If you are divorced and it was
finalized within 30 days, bring a certified copy of the divorce decree
stating the 30-day waiting period is waived.
If you want to use your maiden name on the license, bring a certified
copy of your birth certificate or a certified copy of your divorce
decree stating the name is to be changed to your maiden name.
You must each be at least 18 years of age to apply for a marriage license
without parental consent.
One of you needs to have resided in the county in which you are applying
for at least 30 days. If you are from out-of-state, you must apply in the
county where the ceremony will take place.
A divorce decree or death certificate is not required, but a license
cannot be obtained before 30 days have passed since a divorce or death.
License must be signed by the wedding officiate, as well as by witnesses.
You'll need copies to change your marital status with insurance
companies, the Internal Revenue Service, financial institutions, and
Social Security.
Note: The preceding legal information is provided as a guideline
reference only. Check with the State, County and/or Municipality of your
wedding site for more detailed and current information. Check with your
home state about its requirements for a blood test, license, and other
documents. A marriage license from your home state may not be valid for
a ceremony performed in another state, territory or country. A marriage
performed in another state may not be recognized by your home state,
unless specific requirements are met.
