Marriage License Information

In accordance with the requirements below, a license to marry in Colorado may be obtained in the Office of the Logan County Clerk and Recorder, located in the Logan County Courthouse, Monday thru Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (except holidays).  The license is valid upon receipt, and must be used within 30 days anywhere within the State of Colorado.  There is a $10 cash fee required, checks will not be accepted.  A license issued by another state is not valid in Colorado.

AGE: The requirements for the bride and groom are the same:

  • 18 and older - No parental consent is required.
  • 16 & 17 - Consent of both parents, or the parent having sole legal custody, or guardian, or judicial approval is required.
  • Under 16 - Consent of both parents, or the parent who has legal custody or with whom the child is living and judicial approval (court order) are required.

PROOF OF DATE OF BIRTH MUST BE FURNISHED BY BOTH PARTIES:  Example: valid driver's license, birth certificate, passport, military identification, valid State Identification Card, or call office.

PREVIOUS MARRIAGE:  If either party has previously been married, the date, place, and court in which the marriage was dissolved or declared invalid or the date and place of death of the former spouse will need to be provided.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:  We will need to have both of your parents full names and their present addresses, if living; and your social security number.

BLOOD TEST:  As of July 1, 1989, blood tests are not required for either party in the State of Colorado.

SAME SEX:  Same sex marriages are prohibited in Colorado.  Marriage licenses are only issued to male-female couples.

PROHIBITED MARRIAGES:  A couple may not marry when one of the parties is still married to another person.  Marriage between ancestor and descendant (e.g., uncle and niece) or brother and sister, whether the relationship is by half or the whole blood, is prohibited.  Marriage between cousins is permitted in Colorado. (See 14-2-110, Colorado Revised Statutes, for additional information).

APPLICATION:  Both the bride and the groom must complete and sign the marriage application form.  At least one of the parties must apply in person before the marriage clerk.  If one of the parties cannot appear in person, he or she must complete an affidavit received from our office, which requires a notarized signature.  A couple already married, who wish to renew their marriage vows, or those who have a common law marriage may obtain a license by stating that they are married to each other.  Applicants for a marriage license need not be Colorado residents.

CEREMONY:  A marriage may be solemnized by a judge of a court, by a court magistrate, by a retired judge of a court, by a public official whose powers include solemnization of marriages, by the parties to the marriage, or in accordance with any mode of solemnization recognized by any religious denomination or Indian nation or tribe.

LICENSE:  The person solemnizing the marriage shall complete the marriage certificate form and forward it to the County Clerk and Recorder within sixty days after solemnizing.

Estimates

Our office will be happy to give an estimate on your plate cost.  Required information will be the year, make and model of the vehicle (a VIN # would get the estimate closer.)  However, this is only an estimate. Without the actual title work we are unable to give the exact amount.  Any estimate given (exact or not) will change if we go into a new month, because the ownership tax is charged from the date of purchase until you plate the vehicle, based on the value and year of the vehicle.
