    Marriage Requirements in Vermont

    In Vermont, anyone over the age of 16 can enter a civil marriage. For individuals between 16 and 18, written consent from a parent or guardian is required. With a valid Vermont wedding license, you can marry anywhere in the state. The officiant can be a Supreme Court justice, a superior or district court judge, a justice of the peace, or an ordained clergy member. Vermont also makes it easy for a friend or family member to marry you—any adult can register as a temporary officiant for a $100 fee, adding a personal touch to your ceremony.

    After obtaining your license, it must be delivered to your officiant before the ceremony. Once married, the officiant will complete the certificate and return it to the town clerk where it was issued within 10 days. If you're using a temporary officiant, include a copy of their authorization with the signed certificate.


    How to Get Your Vermont Marriage License

    While the cost of obtaining a marriage license isn’t included in my Vermont elopement packages, the process is straightforward. Vermont residents should apply for the license in their town of residence, while out-of-state couples can apply in any town in Vermont. The license costs $60 and is valid for 60 days. Basic personal information and a copy of your birth certificate are required, along with details on any prior marriages or civil unions. After your wedding, you can obtain copies of the signed certificate for $10 each.


    Best Time to Elope in Vermont

    Choosing the best time to elope in Vermont depends on your preferences. Fall is a popular season, with the Green Mountains blanketed in vibrant hues of red, yellow, and orange. Daytime temperatures are mild, though early snow and frost can create a magical atmosphere for photos.

    Winter is equally beautiful, but the cold can be extreme, often with temperatures in the single digits. With proper planning, however, you’ll be rewarded with pristine, snowy landscapes, perfect for a secluded winter elopement.

    For warmer weather, consider spring or summer. Spring transforms Vermont’s rivers and lakes, though it comes with the potential for mud and black flies. By late summer, the state is ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, boating, and exploring Vermont’s natural beauty. A summer elopement on the shores of Lake Champlain or atop a mountain peak makes for unforgettable memories.


     

    Where to Stay in Vermont

    Planning your Vermont elopement and looking for a special place to stay? Vermont offers a variety of unique accommodations, from cozy cabins nestled in the woods to luxurious mountain resorts. Whether you're after rustic charm or modern comfort, you'll find something to fit your style. Choosing the right place to stay not only provides a beautiful setting for getting ready photos, portraits, and your first look, but it also gives you a romantic retreat to enjoy after your elopement. Some locations even offer specials for Vermont elopement packages!  After our consultation I can send you a list to select your perfect location.
