How Nevada Online Marriage Works
Nevada doesn't require advance notice, blood tests, or waiting periods. Walk into the Clark County Marriage Bureau with your documents and ID, and you can be married within the hour. The hard part — preparing the paperwork correctly — is what CourtFree handles.
CourtFree walks both partners through a plain-language questionnaire: names, birthplaces, previous marriages, ID details, ceremony preferences, and witness information. The system generates your completed Nevada Marriage License Application and a Marriage Certificate template, pre-filled and ready for submission.
💡 Important: Nevada issues marriage licenses in person at county clerk offices. What's "online" is the document preparation phase. You'll still visit your county clerk (e.g., the Clark County Marriage Bureau at 201 E. Clark Ave, Las Vegas) to receive the official license — but your paperwork arrives pre-filled and correct.
What You Get Starting at $299
CourtFree generates the two key documents for a Nevada marriage:
- Nevada Marriage License Application — completed per NRS 122.040, pre-filled with both partners' information, ready to submit to your county clerk
- Marriage Certificate Template — the formal record of your marriage that both parties and an officiant sign on your wedding day
All documents are generated instantly, formatted correctly for Nevada courts, and include your information pre-filled. No blanks to figure out, no forms to track down online.
Who Can Get Married in Nevada
Nevada marriage requirements are among the most straightforward in the country:
- Both parties must be 18 years or older (or 16–17 with parental consent)
- Both parties must be unmarried — prior marriages must be legally ended (divorce, annulment, or death)
- Both parties must appear in person at the county clerk's office
- No Nevada residency requirement — anyone can get married in Nevada
- Both parties must provide a valid government-issued photo ID (driver's license, passport, or state ID)
💡 Previously married? You'll need documentation proving the prior marriage ended — a divorce decree, annulment judgment, or death certificate. CourtFree asks about this during the questionnaire to ensure your documents are complete.
