How To Get Married In Kona Hawaii - Big Island
Hawaii Marriage License Information
How do we obtain a Marriage License In Hawaii?
Both getting married in Hawaii & obtaining a marriage license are very simple!
To start, you can apply for the license online. The license is valid on all Hawaiian Islands, so if you pick it up on Maui, you can still use it on Big Island.
Most people will complete their marriage license application online. The online application is valid up to one year. The paper license in hand is only valid 30 days. You won't receive that until you get to Hawaii and meet with a marriage licensing agent in person.
Here at Kona Wedding Officiant®, we'll assist you with this process by making your marriage licensing appointment for you nearest to your vacation rental (or home) before your wedding. Once you complete the application online, we will gather the information we need from you to make these arrangements.
