If the sheriff (or chief deputy) over the jail will allow it, Then it can be arranged. Seldom do any jails allow a wedding. The issue is a jail is for a short term, the person is being held pending trial, and/or they are there up to one year as a sentence.

So the first stop would be with the jail office and see if permission can be granted.
If it can, they will have a procedure to help with the license. In most state prisons and federal prisons marriages are allowed, (although discouraged)
