    Marriage license in a courthouse wedding
    How long would it take to get the marriage license if you have a courthouse wedding? My girlfriend and I need to pull off getting the license, the marriage, and getting the certificate within 24 hours. Forget about the waiting period.

    You are only 17, (other posts give the age), you may need permission from both parents to get a marriage license up to the age of 18.

    I'm sorry, but very few places can you get married within 24 hours of applying for a license, unless of course you go to Vegas, but even then you are only 17.

    It seems that you can get married at age 17 in Georgia, but you must be accompanied by both your parents and her parents.

    If the bride is pregnant, no parental consent is required if you submit a statement from a Georgia licensed physician certifying that the bride is pregnant.

    There apparently is no waiting period in Georgia...

    You do not have to be a resident of Georgia. However, if not a resident, you must apply in the county where the marriage is to be performed.

    Two valid forms of id such as drivers license, birth certificate, U. S. passport, Armed Forces ID card, or Resident Alien ID card. Applicants will also be asked to fill out a brief form.

    State and county marriage license requirements often change. The above information is for guidance only and should not be regarded as legal advice.

    It is important that you verify all information with your local marriage license office or county clerk before making any wedding or travel plans.
