Getting
Married in Vermont
Ø
Before your ceremony, you will need to purchase a
Vermont marriage
license. It
must be presented to the officiate before your
marriage is performed.
Ø
Out-of-state
residents must buy their license in the county where they plan to marry.
Waterbury is located in Washington County. Any
town clerk in that county can issue the license. A Vermont
license costs $16. You do not need a blood test to get
married
in Vermont.
Ø
You must
provide your legal town of residence and your
place and date of
birth;
you will also need to know your parents names including your mothers
maiden name, and the states where your parents were born. (A certified
copy of your birth certificate can supply most of this information.)
Vermont laws requires that at least one of you must sign in the presence
of the town clerk, certifying that all facts are correct; however, most
town clerks prefer to see both of you in person before issuing your
license to
marry, as the law requires that they satisfy themselves that you are
both free to marry under Vermont Laws. They legally ask to see
documented proof of your statements, for example birth certificates,
divorce decrees, etc.
You will need
to provide information about your race, the highest grade you completed
in school, the number of times you have been married and how your
previous marriage(s), if any, ended. This information does not become
part of the marriage certificate.
Ø
Vermont law
does not require witnesses. If you are planning a religious ceremony,
check with your church or synagogue to see if religious tenets require
witnesses for your wedding.
