Get Married Online in Minnesota - Utah-Based Service

Q: Does Minnesota allow online marriage?

Yes! You can get married online from Minnesota through Utah's program. While Minnesota itself does not offer online marriage (requires in-person application for marriage licenses at county clerk's offices and in-person ceremonies, plus a 5-day waiting period), your Utah marriage is fully recognized in Minnesota under the Full Faith and Credit Clause.

Q: Is a Utah online marriage valid in Minnesota?

Yes! 100% valid. Your Utah marriage certificate works for everything in Minnesota: name changes with Minnesota DVS (Driver and Vehicle Services), Minnesota taxes, state employee benefits, and all legal purposes.

Q: Can we skip Minnesota's 5-day waiting period?

Yes! Minnesota requires a 5-day waiting period between getting your license and having your ceremony. Utah has NO waiting period.

Q: How long does it take?

As fast as 48 hours! The license application takes about 30 minutes online. You can schedule your ceremony for any time more than 24 hours after applying (or same-day with rush service for +$100—rush fee refunded if unavailable). Immediately after your ceremony, your marriage is registered and legal, and you'll receive your digital certificate right away.

Q: What if we're in different Minnesota cities?

No problem! Minnesota is a large state. One partner could be in Minneapolis while the other is in Duluth (150+ miles), Rochester, St. Cloud, or anywhere across Minnesota's 87 counties.

Yes! Rochester is home to the world-famous Mayo Clinic with employees from around the world. Our service is perfect for busy healthcare professionals.
