Marriage licenses are issued at the town or city level.

If you are residents of different Maine towns, you both may apply in one town or the other – you do not need to apply separately in each town. If one is from out of state, then both of you should apply in the town where one holds residency.

 

If neither of you is a resident of Maine, then you may apply in any Maine town office. It need not be the same town where you plan to be married. Your marriage license is valid for 90 days and can only be used within the State of Maine. There is no longer a waiting period from the time your marriage license is issued until your wedding can take place. The person performing the ceremony is responsible for filing the marriage certificate with the town office that issued the marriage license.
