Best Answer

In Tennessee, you can apply for a marriage license from the County Clerk in the county where you live. Generally, you must provide proof of a social security card plus a certified birth certificate or driver's license. The marriage license is valid for 30 days and must be returned to the County Clerk for recording. You can find information for your specific county by using the free website "Free Public Records Directory - Vital Statistics." The link below will take you to the State of Tennessee - Vital Statistics where you can scroll down to "Marriage Licenses" for your county and find either a direct link to the County Clerk or view contact information.
