The Hood County marriage license has its own calendar

The County Clerk at 201 W. Bridge St. in Granbury issues marriage licenses. Applicants usually appear with photo ID and the details the clerk asks for. If one person cannot appear, ask about the notarized absent-person form well before the wedding.

Texas usually puts 72 hours between the license and the ceremony. The license runs out after 90 days. State law has exceptions for an approved course and some military or judge-waiver cases.

An approved course can lower the local fee. Use the live clerk page for today's amount. After the ceremony, a certified copy is a second request; it is not the same paper as the license used on wedding day.
