Get Married Online in Maryland - Utah-Based Service
Maryland couples can now get legally married without leaving home. No courthouse visits, no waiting periods, no witnesses to worry about.

Can I Get an Online Marriage in Maryland?
The short answer: Yes! Maryland residents can get legally married online.
At Vowed and Clear, we operate exclusively through Utah's progressive online marriage laws. Utah explicitly permits and recognizes online marriages performed via video conferencing, with clear legal frameworks that make the process straightforward and reliable.
Here's the best part: Thanks to the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the U.S. Constitution, your Utah online marriage is 100% legally recognized in Maryland and all other states. It doesn't matter where you live—your Utah marriage certificate is just as valid as any traditional wedding certificate.
Important for Maryland Residents:
Maryland requires a 48-hour waiting period between obtaining your marriage license and getting married. Utah has NO waiting period. Many DC metro area professionals choose Utah's program for convenience.
How Maryland Residents Get Married Online
Maryland does NOT offer online marriage services - all Maryland marriage licenses require in-person application at the circuit court clerk's office and in-person ceremony. Maryland has a 48-hour waiting period after obtaining the license. However, Maryland residents CAN get married online through Utah's established program! You obtain a Utah marriage license 100% online (no Maryland presence required), complete your ceremony via video with our licensed Utah officiants, and your marriage is fully recognized in Maryland under the Full Faith and Credit Clause.
