How to Book a Marriage License Appointment in Toronto

Planning a wedding involves many steps, and one of the most important is obtaining your marriage license. If you’re getting married in Toronto, you’ll need to book an appointment to apply for your marriage license. Here’s a step-by-step guide from The Marry Men Wedding Officiants on how to book your marriage license appointment in Toronto.

Determine Eligibility

Before booking your appointment, ensure you meet the basic requirements:

  • Both applicants must be at least 18 years old.
  • You must not be currently married to anyone else.
Gather Required Documents

You’ll need to bring the following documents to your appointment:

  • Valid government-issued photo ID for both applicants (e.g., passport, driver’s license, or health card).
  • If either applicant has been divorced, you will need the original or court-certified copy of the divorce certificate or decree absolute. If the divorce was granted outside of Canada, additional documentation is required.
  •  
Complete the Marriage License Application Form

You can download the marriage license application form from the City of Toronto’s website. Both applicants must complete and sign the form. The form includes basic information about each applicant, including name, date of birth, and marital status.
