Ramsey County Accepting Same-sex Marriage License Applications June 6

Saint Paul – Ramsey County Public Health begins accepting marriage license applications for same-sex couples starting Thursday, June 6, 2013.   A revised marriage license application is now available on the Vital Records web page and at the Vital Records office, 555 Cedar Street, Saint Paul.
 
There is a five day waiting period in Minnesota to get married. Couples will need to apply in person by 4:00 pm, Friday, July 26 for a license issued on August 1 by Ramsey County.  Ramsey County does not give or mail licenses to couples before the license issue date; that means couples must come back to pick up their license, or have it mailed.
