A marriage license may be obtained by appearing in person in the office of the County Clerk. Couples will need to complete an application. The Marriage License Application is available both online and in our office. A current picture ID is required for each party. Appointments are also required for marriage licenses and ceremonies.
Please call (707) 234-6819 to schedule an appointment.

If either party is not at least 18 years of age, a court order must be obtained, and the minor must appear with a parent or legal guardian.

If a dissolution has taken place within the last 90 days, you must bring a certified copy of the final dissolution.
