Marriage Licence Offices - CANADA
BridalSpace.com home page
Legal marriage within any state can only occur if a marriage licence has been issued. The licence requirements can vary from province to province so we advise that you contact your nearest office to obtain full details.

The following are questions you should ask:
  • Do you have to apply for the licence in person?
  • Do you both need to be present when applying?
  • What sort of identification must you provide?
  • Do you need to provide proof of divorce?
  • What are the residency requirements?
  • Who needs to sign the licence?
  • What is the fee?
  • Are blood tests required?
