    It depends on where you live. In some states, 17 is legal age of consent. In others, no, she would need parental consent before age 18.

    She can marry only with parental consent. Once she turns 18 she will no longer need parental consent.

Can a 16 year old man marry a 23 year old woman in Washington state? [ 63 Answers ]

Im 16 and my girlfriend and I have been talking about marriage laws since I've proposed to her. I need to know if it is legal to marry her. I already know the Washington state law that applies to 16 year olds, but it says nothing about marriage between two separate ages.
