Knowing before hand any Las Vegas Wedding Information is
a must when planning on getting married in Las Vegas. All of the
information you can get ahead of time is going to save you time
and frustrations, which goes to make your wedding plans much easier.
Having this Las Vegas Wedding Information on hand will help your
Wedding plans go they way you have them planned.
A man and woman who
are unrelated and are both at least 18 years of age may be issued
a marriage license in Clark County. Blood test are not required
and there is no waiting period but they may ask to see proof of
age. Having your current valid ID is one of the most important
factors when making your plans for the Las Vegas Wedding Information
that you will need to know before going to Las Vegas.
People the ages of
16 to 18 may marry if the consent is given at time of the marriage
license application by "either" parent or legal guardian.
A certified copy of the birth certificate may be required. The
legal guardian must have a court order showing proof of legal
guardianship. All people giving consent must also have proof of
identity. Consent is given by a notarized affidavit of consent,
which must be written in "English" and contains the
birth date of the minor and must state the relationship of the
person giving consent. This is one more important factor to take
into consideration while gathering your Las Vegas Wedding Information.
If you are an International
couple who resides out of the United States, you can be married
in Las Vegas. You will need to keep all of this information on
hand while preparing your Las Vegas Wedding Information and your
Wedding plans. The Clark County Marriage Bureau located at 200
S. 3rd Street in Las Vegas does have certain office hours. Don't
cut your self-short by not knowing what these hours are. Most
International counties will want a certified copy of your marriage
certificate and an Apostille from the Nevada Secretary of State.
If you are asking your
self while making your Las Vegas Wedding plans, "What is
an Apostille" it is merely a special seal applied by an authority
to certify that a document is a true copy of an original.
The marriage certificate
costs $10 and the Apostille costs $20. The Nevada Secretary of
State can send the Apostille and the certified marriage certificate
directly to your government. Remember to keep all of this information
current and on hand while preparing your Las Vegas Wedding
Information.
