Obtaining a marriage license on Maui

Gay and lesbian marriages are  legal in the State of Hawaii. Marriages performed in Hawaii are recognized federally, in all 50 U.S. states and throughout the world where gay marriage is legal. We coordinate your marriage license, and the State will mail you the final marriage license about 3-4 week after the wedding.

Requirements for a marriage license
:
You must have a valid marriage license to be married in Hawaii. There is a $70 state fee paid directly to the State of Hawaii , on-line for the marriage application. Once the marriage license paperwork is issued by the agent a marriage performer (minister or non-religious officiant) must perform the ceremony and submit the documents to the State to make the marriage legally binding. The license paperwork is good for thirty days after being issued by the marriage license agent and the wedding ceremony must take place within those 30 days. Most couples obtain the license the day of the ceremony or a day or 2 before. The appointment is less than 15 minutes. 

Marriage licenses must be obtained here in Hawaii and it is necessary to appear in person with the State marriage license agent in order to obtain that license.

GayHawaiiWedding.com will schedule the license appointment for you, typically one or two days before the wedding date. We schedule the appointment with the marriage license agent located closest to the hotel/apt where you will be staying, or near the airport.

Both partners must be at least 19 years of age or have written parental or legal guardian permission. There is no residency requirement, no waiting period and no blood tests or shots required.

A valid picture ID is all that is required for U.S citizens and non-U.S citizens. (State issued Driver’s License or Passport) Foreigners can be married in Hawaii with a passport or Visa. If a divorce was finalized for either partner within the last three months, please bring the final decree.
The certified copy of the Hawaii wedding marriage certificate is mailed to the married couple approximately3-4 weeks  after receipt from the officiant. If the certified copy is needed sooner, the marriage license agent will provide a request form, which can be mailed to the Vital Records Section along with a $10 fee charged by the Department of Health for this service.
