Then the town clerk records and files the certificate and sends a certified copy to the Health Department.

  1. The cost of a marriage license is $80.00. The license is valid for 60 days. So, if you do not perform your wedding ceremony within 60 days, your license will be void.

Certified marriage certificate is $10.00.

Civil unions were established in Vermont in 2000 to provide same-sex couples all the benefits, protections and responsibilities under law as are granted to spouses in a marriage. The marriage equality act, effective September 1, 2009 allows same-sex couples to marry in Vermont. This discontinued the need for the separate status of “civil unions.” Civil unions entered into prior to September 1, 2009 will continue to be recognized as civil unions.
